Islamic Art from the Collection, Oct. 23, 2020 - Dec
It Comes in Many Forms: Islamic Art from the Collection, Oct. 23, 2020 - Dec. 18, 2021 This exhibition presents textiles, decorative arts, and works on paper that show the breadth of Islamic artistic production and the diversity of Muslim cultures. Throughout the world for nearly 1,400 years, Islam’s creative expressions have taken many forms—as artworks, functional objects and tools, decoration, fashion, and critique. From a medieval Persian ewer to contemporary clothing, these objects explore migration, diasporas, and exchange. What makes an object Islamic? Does the artist need to be a practicing Muslim? Is being Muslim a religious expression or a cultural one? Do makers need to be from a predominantly Muslim country? Does the subject matter need to include traditionally Islamic motifs? These objects, a majority of which have never been exhibited before, suggest the difficulty of defining arts from a transnational religious viewpoint. These exhibition labels add honorifics whenever important figures in Islam are mentioned. SWT is an acronym for subhanahu wa-ta'ala (glorious and exalted is he), a respectful phrase used after every mention of Allah (God). SAW is an acronym for salallahu alayhi wa-sallam (may the blessings and the peace of Allah be upon him), used for the Prophet Muhammad, the founder and last messenger of Islam. AS is an acronym for alayhi as-sallam (peace be upon him), and is used for all other prophets before him.

The special Jerusalem in Landmarks Architectural Mamluk allure of Al-Quds al-Sharif, with its sublime noble serenity and inalienable Muslim Arab identity, has enticed Muslims in general and Sufis in particular to travel there on pilgrimage, ziyarat, as has been enjoined by the Prophet Mohammad. Dowagers, princes, and sultans, benefactors and benefactresses, endowed lavishly built madares and khanqahs as institutes of teaching Islam and Sufism. Mausoleums, ribats, zawiyas, caravansaries, sabils, public baths, and covered markets congested the neighborhoods adjacent to the Noble Sanctuary. In six walks the author escorts the reader past the splendid endowments that stand witness to Jerusalem’s glorious past. Mamluk Architectural Landmarks in Jerusalem invites readers into places of special spiritual and aesthetic significance, in which the Prophet’s mystic Night Journey plays a key role. The Mamluk massive building campaign was first and foremost an act of religious tribute to one of Islam’s most holy cities. A Mamluk architectural trove, Jerusalem emerges as one of the most beautiful cities.

The Turkish Online Journal of Design, Art and Communication - TOJDAC August 2016 Special Edition SURVEY OF ISLAMIC ART IN THE HOLY SHRINE OF GHASEM (AS) UREH IN THE DAMAVAND CITY OF TEHRAN PROVINCE Atieh Youzbashi Master of Visual Communication, Faculty of Art, Shahed University, Tehran, Iran [email protected] Seyed Nezam Oldin Emamifar Assistant Professor of Faculty of Art, Shahed University, Tehran, Iran [email protected] ABSTRACT Islamic art or the arts of Muslims is a part of art in Muslim society and not necessarily by Muslims. Although in some cases, this arts may not go with the ethics and rules of Islam. The impact of Islamic and regional culture in this arts is obvious. Islamic art is not an art that is only related to Islam. The “Islamic” does not only refer to the religion but also it refers to the rich culture and different types of people who live in Islamic lands. Familiarity with Islamic art in the shrines and the pictorial motifs in them leads to getting familiar with semiology. Arts used in the shrines are one of the most obvious representatives of Islamic culture and spiritual atmosphere. The way of doing the research is based upon the descriptive and analytic nature, and the way of compiling information is combined. The way of taking sample is not random (Chosen) and the way of interpreting and analyzing the information is both qualitative. Initially in this research, the basic of Islamic art are introduced and then the example of Islamic art in the shrine of Ghasem (AS) which include, wood carving, fretwork, girih tile, illumination and reticulated metal. -

Problems and Status of Muslim Graveyards in Delhi
PROBLEMS AND STATUS OF MUSLIM GRAVEYARDS IN DELHI A REPORT DELHI MINORITIES COMMISSION Government of NCT of Delhi C- Block, First Floor, Vikas Bhawan, I.P. Estate New Delhi 110002 Cover photo: A scene from Batla House graveyard Study conducted for Delhi Minorities Commission By HUMAN DEVELOPMENT SOCIETY 27-O, Pocket 2, MIG Complex, Mayur Vihar, Phase 3, Delhi- 110096 Telephone: 011-22621867, 09971222966 Email: [email protected], [email protected] Website: www.hdsindia.org FOREWORD Delhi Minorities Commission is pleased to publish this study on Muslim graveyards in the NCT of Delhi. This study was commissioned by the previous Commission headed by Shri Qamar Ahmad but could not be finalised and published during its tenure. The new Commission, which took over on 20 July, 2017, found this study among the pending work. We took it up with due diligence and urgency. After going through the draft, we called a meeting with Human Development Society’s director and researcher. Now it is being published with some changes and addition of some information and data. This study is an eye-opener. It tells us that a majority of Muslim graveyards registered with Delhi Waqf Board (DWB) and other agencies has practically disappeared over the years. Both public and government agencies have occupied or encroached upon graveyards, while new land is not being earmarked for new qabristans in town-planning schemes. The study has found that the remaining space in the existing qarbristans is hardly enough for two more years. DMC will approach Govt. of NCT of Delhi and its agencies, especially Delhi Waqf Board and Delhi Development Authority, to quickly solve this grave problem before it is too late. -
