  • Muslim Saints of South Asia
    MUSLIM SAINTS OF SOUTH ASIA This book studies the veneration practices and rituals of the Muslim saints. It outlines the principle trends of the main Sufi orders in India, the profiles and teachings of the famous and less well-known saints, and the development of pilgrimage to their tombs in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. A detailed discussion of the interaction of the Hindu mystic tradition and Sufism shows the polarity between the rigidity of the orthodox and the flexibility of the popular Islam in South Asia. Treating the cult of saints as a universal and all pervading phenomenon embracing the life of the region in all its aspects, the analysis includes politics, social and family life, interpersonal relations, gender problems and national psyche. The author uses a multidimen- sional approach to the subject: a historical, religious and literary analysis of sources is combined with an anthropological study of the rites and rituals of the veneration of the shrines and the description of the architecture of the tombs. Anna Suvorova is Head of Department of Asian Literatures at the Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow. A recognized scholar in the field of Indo-Islamic culture and liter- ature, she frequently lectures at universities all over the world. She is the author of several books in Russian and English including The Poetics of Urdu Dastaan; The Sources of the New Indian Drama; The Quest for Theatre: the twentieth century drama in India and Pakistan; Nostalgia for Lucknow and Masnawi: a study of Urdu romance. She has also translated several books on pre-modern Urdu prose into Russian.

  • Historical Maps of Sindh 1600-1843 Ad
    HISTORICAL MAPS OF SINDH 1600-1843 AD (473 Historical Maps of Sindh 1600 to 1843 AD in Great Britain and National Archives of India, and Construction of first Map of Sindh before its Conquest) By M.H. PANHWAR I have in my possession about 500 maps of Sindh pertaining to history, historical geography, changing courses of the river Indus, archaeology, physical and topography, geology, ground- water and administrative units, listed in my book “Source Material on Sindh”. In search of rare maps recently I visited Royal Geographical Society, British Museum, India Office Library in London and was able to locate in these institutions’ map departments respectively 48, 31 and 49 maps so far unknown to me. I was also able to get list of 92 maps in the map manuscript section of National Archives of India. New Delhi. The book section of India Office Library has 221 maps, most of them in administrative reports of each Taluka issued periodically. The only important U.K source, which could not be examined was Admiralty Museum at Greenwich. From the studies of these maps as well as the reports of British Missions to Sindh it is now confirmed that British were surveying Sindh since 1808 AD. The major part in surveying and preparation of maps was played by Nicolas Hanky Smith, Pottinger, Todd. Masson, James Burnes, Del Hoste and Alexander Burnes. After the treaty with Talpurs in 1832 AD, large scale surveys were undertaken in which Carless, Campbell Margary, John Jacob and Messuir did mot remarkable work. These officials used most indigenous methods and instruments for the purpose and one cannot but credit them for untiring work in the oppressive climate of Sindh.

  • Beliefs and Behaviors of Shrine Visitors of Bibi Pak Daman
    Journal of Gender and Social Issues Spring 2020, Vol. 19, Number 1 ©Fatima Jinnah Women University, Rawalpindi Beliefs and Behaviors of Shrine Visitors of Bibi Pak Daman Abstract The present study aims at focusing on what kind of beliefs are associated with the shrine visits that make them visitors believe and behave in a specific way. The shrine selected for this purpose was Bibi Pak Daman, Lahore, Pakistan. The visitors of this shrine were observed using non- participant observation method. Field notes were used to record observations and the data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Three major themes emerged out of the data. The first major theme of immortality appeared with sub-themes of belief in existence after death, belief in supernatural powers of chaste ladies and objects placed at the shrine. The second theme that emerged consisted of superstitions with the sub-themes of superstitions related to objects and miracles/mannat system. The third theme that emerged was of the beliefs in the light of the placebo effect and the sub-themes included prayer fulfillment, enhanced spirituality and problem resolution. Keywords: Bibi Pak Daman, beliefs, shrine visitors INTRODUCTION Islam has a unique role in meeting the spiritual needs of its followers through Sufism, which is defined as a system of beliefs wherein Muslims search for their spiritual knowledge in the course of direct personal experience and practice of Allah Almighty (Khan & Sajid, 2011). Sufism represents the spiritual dimension of Islam. Sufis played a major role in spreading Islam throughout the sub-continent, sometimes even more than the warriors. In early 12th century, Sufi saints connected the Hindus and Muslims with their deep devotion and love for God as the basic tenet of belief.
