The Reformers’ political program has failed both because their interpretation of the law has proven inadequate to deliver on its promises and because the instrument through which they chose to impose this interpretation—the institu- tion of the modern state—has proven inappropriate for the purpose. I hope to show here that this failure is due to the fact that the program of the modern Sunni Reformers rep- resents a double rupture with the past: first, the Reformers deliberately chose to sweep away the teachings of the estab- lished schools of law; second, they opted for the state rather than society as the means by which to impose their program.

  • Islam and the Challenge of Democratic Commitment
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 27, Issue 1 2003 Article 2 Islam and the Challenge of Democratic Commitment Dr. Khaled Abou El-Fadl∗ ∗ Copyright c 2003 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Islam and the Challenge of Democratic Commitment Dr. Khaled Abou El-Fadl Abstract The author questions whether concurrent and simultaneous moral and normative commit- ments to Islam and to a democratic form of government are reconcilable or mutually exclusive. The author will argue in this Article that it is indeed possible to reconcile Islam with a commitment in favor of democracy. The author will then present a systematic exploration of Islamic theology and law as it relates to a democratic system of government, and in this context, address the various elements within Islamic belief and practice that promote, challenge, or hinder the emergence of an ideological commitment in favor of democracy. In many ways, the basic and fundamental ob- jective of this Article is to investigate whether the Islamic faith is consistent or reconcilable with a democratic faith. As addressed below, both Islam and democracy represent a set of comprehensive and normative moral commitments and beliefs about, among other things, the worth and entitle- ments of human beings. The challenging issue is to understand the ways in which the Islamic and democratic systems of convictions and moral commitments could undermine, negate, or validate and support each other. ISLAM AND THE CHALLENGE OF DEMOCRATIC COMMITMENT Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl* The question I deal with here is whether concurrent and simultaneous moral and normative commitments to Islam and to a democratic form of government are reconcilable or mutually exclusive.

Article History: Received: 5 April 2021; Accepted: 14 May 2021; Published online: 22 June 2021 Abstract: In Islamic sources, whether interpretive, narrative or historical, the Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT) are mostly referred to with high reverence, and graceful trait are attributed thereto. yet, their commemoration in one of the most glorious works of early Arabic literature, namely Kitab al-Aghani, is of paramount significance. Attributed to the 10th-century Arabic writer Abu al- Faraj al-Isfahani (also known as al-Isbahani), it is claimed to have taken 50 years to write the work. Considering that he is a descendant of the Marwanis, mentioning the virtues of the Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT) in this book further highlights their legitimacy, making everyone awe in praise. Further, the claims cited in the work have been mostly backed by referring to other Sunni and possibly Shiite sources. With a descriptive-analytical approach, the purpose of this study was to introduce the Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT) in the Kitab al-Aghani, while pointing out issues such as the succession of Ali (PBUH), the succession of Imam Hassan (PBUH) and Messianism of Mahdi (PBUH). Keywords: Ahl al-Bayt (PBUT), Abu al-Faraj al-Isfahani, Kitab al-Aghani 1. Introduction In the present age where spirituality is marginalized, the rational and spiritualistic people are on the quest for true rationality and spirituality, and seek to achieve the transcendent goal of creation, i.e., salvation, by heartfully following the prophets and their true successors to guide them with the illuminating light from darkness to light.

The Spirit of Ease in Shari’ah Let me state from the outset that Shari’ah is all about ease and the removal of hardship for people in order to facilitate things for them. Shari’ah , as it has been articulated by eminent jurists, has the sole objective of catering to the welfare of people in both worlds. Consequently, practicality, balance, ease, and removal of hardship are all valid principles that have always been used as the criteria for providing rulings for people, according to changing times and circumstances. The Qur’an and the Prophetic Sunnah have reiterated this principle throughout. Allah says, “Allah intends to bring for you ease; and He does not wish to make things hard upon you.” ( Qur’an: 2:185 ) and "He did not appoint for you any hardship in this religion: the way of your ancestor Ibrahim" ( Qur’an: 22:78 ).

  • A Controversy About the Authority of Khabar Al-Wahid with Special Referenceto Al-Shafits Views
    A CONTROVERSY ABOUT THE AUTHORITY OF KHABAR AL-WAHID WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO AL-SHAFITS VIEWS Dr. Abdul Karim AH* Abstract This article attempts to elaborate the different views of different madhhabs about the authority of khabar al-wahid in general, with special reference to al-Shafi'i's points of view. DEFINITION Literally, khabar al-wahid {pi. akhbar at-ahad) means a tradition or report going back to one single authority.1 Its synonyms are khabar al-'mfirad and khabar al-khassah.2 However, scholars of hadith have widened the meaning, in terpreting khabar al-wahid as what is narrated or reported by one or two au thorities from one or two authorities back to the Prophet, or what is narrated by a number less than mutawatir? Normally, the scholars of hadith divide reports into mutawatir and ahad. Mutawatir hadith is that narrated by a group of reliable and trustworthy indi viduals from a group of trustworthy persons going back to the Prophet. There is no exact number that institutes tawatur. Some say three, some say four while others say twenty. Al-Shafi'i himself refuses to specify the exact number of re porters at any particular level of the isnad that make a hadith mutawatir* ♦Lecturer, Academy of Islamic Studies.

    Journal of Novel Applied Sciences Available online at www.jnasci.org ©2016 JNAS Journal-2016-5-1/1-4 ISSN 2322-5149 ©2016 JNAS A survey on the prohibition of publication of Hadith based on the most important justifications of contemporary Sunnis in Abahyh and Prohibition Hadith Nemat Jafari1* and Kamran Oveisi2 1- Professor of Payam Noor university of Zanjan 2- PhD student in comparative interpretation at Quran University of Qom Corresponding author: Nemat Jafari ABSTRACT: Sunnis and the contemporary scholars in particular, have admitted that publication as a general term is a symbol of human civilization and as a specific term has caused the durability and flourishing of religious courses. There has been a serious ignorance on prophetic hadith which are rich in Islamic thoughts and rules and that is the prohibition of publishing the hadith from Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The contemporary scholars and hadith writers believe that hadith had not been written until the end of first Hegira century. Therefore, there have been efforts to justify this prohibition of publication of hadith by using legal and rational evidences. Nonetheless, there exist some drawbacks in them and according to what was mentioned, this cultural error may not be connived. Keywords: Hadith, Hadith Publication, Prohibition of Publication, Hadith Prohibition. INTRODUCTION An appropriate analysis on history can be one of the ways to discover the past events and facts. Undisputedly, it is not possible to approve of all written historical publication with no doubt as throughout history there have been many shams and praises of kings along with the criticism and disapproval of opposes and alike.
