    REVIEWS MODERNIZATION OF THE ISLAMIC SOCIETY - A Review of Three Studies published by the Institute of Asian Economic Affairs- TERUTARO NISHINO Chato no Kindaika to Isuramu-kyo (Modernization in the Middle East and Islam), a monograph by Hajime Kobayashi, 1961, 220 pp. Arahu Shokoku no Shakai Keizai Ki/<'o (Socio-Economic Structure of Arab Coun­ tries), edited by Shinji Maejima, 1961, 330 pp. Indoneshia no Se�ji Shakai Kozo (Politico-Economic Structure of Indonesia), edit­ ed by Yoichi Itagaki, 1961, 283 pp. "The Islamic society" is a concept which I use sometimes with certain doubts about its validity. The term has been applied indiscriminately to those societies where an overwhelming sector of religious belief is Islamic. In this sense, such countries as Indonesia in Southeast Asia, and Guinea and Nigeria in West Africa are also "Islamic societies". After making a tour in these areas, however, I have found neither in Southeast Asia nor in West Africa that any pressing problem has been raised as to whether Islam would be a deterrent to the modernization of those societies. On the other hand, the problem of modernizing Islam has been of great importance in the Middle East, and Arab countries in particular. Identifying this problem of Islam and modernization as the key issue, I will give an outline of, and some personal comments on, the three reports of the Institute of Asian Economic Affairs as listed above. In so doing, I should hasten to add that my discussion will be somewhat one-sided, for I shall concentrate on the issue I have mentioned.

  • Link to a Calendar of Religious Festivals Can Be Found
    Cultural Competence and Teaching OU Students Introduction This document is, in part, a response to a request from Associate Lecturers (ALs) in the Open University (OU) in the East Midlands. Over 1/3 of ALs who completed a regional questionnaire said they would appreciate some training or development to help them address issues of race and ethnicity at work. So, this document is designed to offer ALs practical ideas that can inform and enhance their teaching and support to a diverse student community. Because the document builds on ‘Alternative Perspectives on Islam’, the focus is on working with Muslim students. However, the competency model that has been used in the document can be applied to working with all students, whatever their beliefs and practices. So, the document has both a specific and a broader application. ‘Alternative Perspectives on Islam’, sub-titled ‘Encouraging Contemporary Debate’, was organised by the OU in the East Midlands and hosted by Nottingham Castle in September 2008. The debate was based around discussions raised in the OU’s course AD252 Islam in the West: The Politics of Co-existence and was chaired by course author Dr David Herbert. He was joined by Dilwar Hussain, Head of Policy Research at the Islamic Foundation and Commissioner on the Commission for Racial Equality, and Dr Bano Murtuja, Senior Associate at Vis-à- Vis Research Consultancy and Chair of the BME Health and Social Care Forum. Cultural competence Culture signifies the different social values, norms and meanings held by different groups. For example, some cultures expect students to debate and discuss ideas with their tutor, whereas other cultures expect students to treat their tutor as an authority, accepting their pronouncements unquestioningly.

  • The Construction of Sino-Muslim Histories and Identities in the Early Twentieth Century
    “Awakening” Country and Faith: The Construction of Sino-Muslim Histories and Identities in the Early Twentieth Century Mengyu Huang Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Prerequisite for Honors in East Asian Studies April 2012 © 2012 Mengyu Huang Acknowledgments It is my pleasure to thank the many people who made this thesis possible. Foremost, I must express sincere gratitude to my advisors Professors C. Pat Giersch and Y. Tak Matsusaka. Their guidance, encouragement, patience, and knowledge were all key ingredients in bringing this thesis to fruition. Professor Giersch’s “Chinese Frontier Experience, 1600 to the Present” seminar deserves credit for sparking and sustaining my interest in exploring Chinese ethnopolicy and Sino-Muslims. I am indebted to his advice throughout the initial planning and research stages. I am equally indebted to Professor Matsusaka for his assistance throughout the writing process. His careful reading of the drafts and always-insightful comments helped me sharpen my arguments and bring out the “melody” of each chapter. Any remaining mistakes are, of course, my own. I must also extend my gratitude to the East Asian Studies Department for being my academic home throughout my four years at Wellesley and to director Professor Katharine Moon for her tremendous efforts in strengthening the program and resources available to majors. Professors Ellen Widmer and David Lindauer also deserve many warm and heartfelt thanks for serving as my major advisors and for further enriching my undergraduate academic experience. The History Department deserves recognition for generously allowing me to participate in its honor thesis writing workshop. A special thanks to Professor Alejandra Osorio for leading the workshop and providing the extra push (i.e.

  • Islamic Modernism in China: Chinese Muslim Elites, Guomindang Nation-Building, and the Limits of the Global Umma, 1900-1960
    Islamic Modernism in China: Chinese Muslim Elites, Guomindang Nation-Building, and the Limits of the Global Umma, 1900-1960 John Tseh-han Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 John Tseh-han Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Islamic Modernism in China: Chinese Muslim Elites, Guomindang Nation-Building, and the Limits of the Global Umma, 1900-1960 John Tseh-han Chen Modern Chinese Muslims’ increasing connections with the Islamic world conditioned and were conditioned by their elites’ integrationist politics in China. Chinese Muslims (the “Hui”) faced a predicament during the Qing and Ottoman empire-to-nation transitions, seeking both increased contact with Muslims outside China and greater physical and sociopolitical security within the new Chinese nation-state. On the one hand, new communication and transport technologies allowed them unprecedented opportunities for transnational dialogue after centuries of real and perceived isolation. On the other, the Qing’s violent suppression of Muslim uprisings in the late nineteenth century loomed over them, as did the inescapable Han-centrism of Chinese nationalism, the ongoing intercommunal tensions between Muslims and Han, and the general territorial instability of China’s Republican era (1911-49). As a result, Islamic modernism—a set of positions emphasizing both reason and orthodoxy, and arguing that true or original Islam is compatible with science, education, democracy, women’s rights, and other “modern” norms— took on new meanings in the context of Chinese nation-making. In an emerging dynamic, ethos, and discourse of “transnationalist integrationism,” leading Chinese Muslims transformed Islamic modernism, a supposedly foreign body of thought meant to promote unity and renewal, into a reservoir of concepts and arguments to explain and justify the place of Islam and Muslims in China, and in so doing made it an integral component of Chinese state- and nation-building.

    The Causes of Religious Wars: Holy Nations, Sacred Spaces, and Religious Revolutions By Heather Selma Gregg Master’s of Theological Studies (1998) Harvard Divinity School B.A., Cultural Anthropology (1993) University of California at Santa Cruz Submitted to the Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology February 2004 Copyright 2003 Massachusetts Institute of Technology All Rights Reserved 1 2 The Causes of Religious Wars: Holy Nations, Sacred Spaces, and Religious Revolutions by Heather Selma Gregg Submitted to the Department of Political Science on October 27, 2003 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science Abstract In the wake of September 11th, policy analysts, journalists, and academics have tried to make sense of the rise of militant Islam, particularly its role as a motivating and legitimating force for violence against the US. The unwritten assumption is that there is something about Islam that makes it bloodier and more violence-prone than other religions. This dissertation seeks to investigate this assertion by considering incidents of Islamically motivated terrorism, violence, and war, and comparing them to examples of Christian, Jewish, Buddhist and Hindu bellicosity. In doing so, it aims to evaluate if religious violence is primarily the product of beliefs, doctrine and scripture, or if religious violence is the result of other factors

  • Islam, Reason and Freedom Outline
    Acton University 2019 Outline of "Islam, Reason and Freedom" lecture by Mustafa Akyol It is no secret today that Islam has authoritarian interpretations that reject the principles of human freedom. This includes imposing religion through state power, punishing people for "apostasy" or "blasphemy," or degrading women or minorities. This lecture will delve into the formative centuries of Islam to map out the roots of the problem, while also showing the sources for progress. It will explain where the Qur'an and the Muslim tradition stands on reason, freedom and natural law. HIGHLIGHTS: 1) The first theological rift in Islam: Freewill vs. Predestination 2) The Mu’tazilites vs. Ash’arites — or Ethical Objectivism vs. Divine Command Theory 3) The falasifa, or “philosophers,” and their waning 4) The maqasid, or “intentions,” of the Sharia vs. literalism 5) The challenge of modernity 6) Issues with the Sharia today: Freedom of religion, freedom from religion, equality before law, secular state 7) Reformist — or “renewalist” — arguments in contemporary Islam SUGGESTED READING - Mustafa Akyol, Islam without Extremes: A Muslim Case for Liberty, WW Norton, 2011 (Available at the Acton University Book Store) - Daniel Philpott, Religious Freedom in Islam: The Fate of a Universal Human Right in the Muslim World Today, Oxford University Press, 2019 - Khaled Abou Fadl, Reasoning with God: Reclaiming Shari‘ah in the Modern Age, Rowman & Littlefield, 2014 - George F.

  • 35 an Unusual Christian View of Islam in Modern Egypt * NELLY VAN
    35 An Unusual Christian View of Islam * in Modern Egypt NELLY VAN DOORN In 1959 the Coptic Orthodox Church of Egpyt excommunicated a certain Dr. Nazmi Luqa. The motive for this grave clerical punishment was the fact that Dr. Luqd had published a book called: "Muhammad, al-Risala wa-l-RasUl" (Muhammad, the Message and the Messenger) (1) of which the dignitaries of the Coptic Church highly disap- proved. The dialogue of Christianity with Islam has been the subject of many an article on missiology or comparative theology (2). The majority of these articles, however, are written by western (Christian) scholars and theologians. Oriental Christians living in Muslim countries hardly seem interested in the religion of their compatriots. One of the few Coptic Christians in modern Egypt who expressed his ideas on Islam was Dr. Nazmi Luqa (3). As illustrated above, his book on Islam caused a storm of agitation among Copts; in fact to such a degree that the Egyptian authorities removed the book from public selling. After the publication of his "Muhammad, the Message and the Messenger", Dr. Luqd continued to elaborate his ideas in several other books on religion, although the impact of his books on his personal life was enormous: "his children had been beaten en route to school, his home required a police guard and his name was smeared with the label of traitor" (4). This phenomenon together with the fact that he is, as one is tempted to say, a lone wolf among Oriental Christians makes it worthwhile to take a closer look -at Dr.

Beginnings and End of the Islamic Fraternity Ⅲ . The Islamic Fraternity in the Archives Ⅳ . The Islamic Fraternity in Contemporary Publications Ⅴ . Conclusion: A Multi-Faceted Journal 日本初のムスリム雑誌の目録 The Islamic Fraternity（1910-12）とその後継誌 ウルリッヒ・ブランデンブルグ 本稿の目的は、イスラームを主題とする日本初の雑誌としてムスリムによって刊行 された『イスラミック・フラタニティ（The Islamic Fraternity）』のうち、現在入手可能 177 An Inventory of the First Muslim Journal in Japan（Brandenburg） な資料の目録を提供することである。同雑誌は、おそらくは当時の日本軍の支援を受 けて、1910年にボーパール出身のインド人ムハンマド・バラカトゥッラーとエジプト人 アハマド・ファドリーによって東京で創刊された。早くも1912 年に英国の要請によっ て差し止められたが、それまでの 2 年間にこの雑誌は世界中の注目を大いに集めた。 しかし、現在までに研究者には 2 号分しか知られておらず、同誌の情報の大半は英領 インドの植民地関係の文書から引き出すほかない。このわずかな情報源に加え、本稿 はさまざまなアーカイブに現存することが確認できた複数のほかの既刊号および『イ スラミック・フラタニティ』が当時の報道に残した多様な足跡をとりあげる。これらは 併せて、および20世紀初頭のアジアにおける日本とムスリム・コミュニティのあいだ の交流、および日本におけるイスラームの歴史をより深く理解するための貴重な資料 である。 本稿では第一に『イスラミック・フラタニティ』とその創刊者について現在知られて いる事柄の概要を提供する。ムハンマド・バラカトゥッラーは文字どおり世界規模の インド独立運動を通して著名であるのに対し、アハマド・ファドリーはほぼ日本滞在 を通してのみ知られている。しかしながら、彼ファドリーこそ日本軍に個人的に接触 することで軍部による『イスラミック・フラタニティ』の援助を確保した人物であった と考えられる。だが、ファドリーはまもなくこの雑誌を去り、その内容と特徴を形成 したのはバラカトゥッラーであった。第二に、本稿は世界各地の多様なアーカイブに保 管されている同誌の現存する号の目録を提供する。ロンドンの英国図書館蔵インド省 資料、イスタンブールのオスマン文書館、パリのフランス外交史料館に諸号の点在が 確認できる。とりわけ注目に値するのはチェコ出身の東洋学者アロイス・ニークルの 私記であり、プラハに収集されている。そこで上記のアーカイブに保存された『イスラミッ ク・フラタニティ』の合わせて 11号分の各記事を短く摘録し、さらにニークル文書に しか現在していないその短命な後継誌の諸号も概略する。第三に、本稿は同誌が当時 の報道に残した数々の痕跡、すなわち同誌の記事の要約ないし再掲載を調査する。こ れらの痕跡はバラカトゥッラーのネットワーク、および同誌が日本国外から注目を集め

  • Islam a Brief Outline of Islam According to the Qur’An and the Prophetic Sunnah
    Islam A Brief Outline of Islam according to the Qur’an and the Prophetic Sunnah This is an important book offering a concise introduction to Islam. It illustrates its most essential pillars, teachings, and beauties drawn from its original sources, namely the Noble Qur’an and the Prophetic Sunnah. This book is addressed to all legally competent individuals, Muslims and non- Muslims alike in their own respective languages, in all times and everywhere, regardless of the changing circumstances. (A copy including proofs from the Noble Qur’an and the Prophetic Sunnah) 1. Islam is the message of Allah to all people, as it is the eternal and the last of divine messages: Islam is the message of Allah to all people as Allah Almighty says:{And We have not sent you but for all mankind as a bringer of glad tidings and a warner, but most people do not know.}[Surat Saba’: 28]He also says:{Say, [O Muhammad]: “O mankind, indeed I am the Messenger of Allah to you all...”}[Surat al-A‘rāf: 158]He also says:{O mankind, the Messenger has come to you with the truth from your Lord, so believe; it is better for you.
