  • Path(S) of Remembrance: Memory, Pilgrimage, and Transmission in a Transatlantic Sufi Community”
    “Path(s) of Remembrance: Memory, Pilgrimage, and Transmission in a Transatlantic Sufi Community” By Jaison Carter A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Mariane Ferme, Chair Professor Charles Hirschkind Professor Stefania Pandolfo Professor Ula Y. Taylor Spring 2018 Abstract “Path(s) of Remembrance: Memory, Pilgrimage, and Transmission in a Transatlantic Sufi Community” by Jaison Carter Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Berkeley Professor Mariane Ferme, Chair The Mustafawiyya Tariqa is a regional spiritual network that exists for the purpose of assisting Muslim practitioners in heightening their level of devotion and knowledges through Sufism. Though it was founded in 1966 in Senegal, it has since expanded to other locations in West and North Africa, Europe, and North America. In 1994, protegé of the Tariqa’s founder and its most charismatic figure, Shaykh Arona Rashid Faye al-Faqir, relocated from West Africa to the United States to found a satellite community in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. This location, named Masjidul Muhajjirun wal Ansar, serves as a refuge for traveling learners and place of worship in which a community of mostly African-descended Muslims engage in a tradition of remembrance through which techniques of spiritual care and healing are activated. This dissertation analyzes the physical and spiritual trajectories of African-descended Muslims through an ethnographic study of their healing practices, migrations, and exchanges in South Carolina and in Senegal. By attending to manner in which the Mustafawiyya engage in various kinds of embodied religious devotions, forms of indebtedness, and networks within which diasporic solidarities emerge, this project explores the dispensations and transmissions of knowledge to Sufi practitioners across the Atlantic that play a part in shared notions of Black Muslimness.

  • Conflicts in Islam on the 'Periphery': Doctrines, Cultures, Politics
    Conflicts in Islam on the Asian and African 'Periphery': Doctrines, Cultures, and Politics Dietrich Reetz Zentrum Moderner Orient, Berlin, Germany Although Islam emerged as a religion of the book in the Arabian Peninsula, it has since become a global phenomenon spanning different regions and cultures across the world. From this perspective the history and development of Islam can be read as a struggle between consistency and diversity. On one side, it has been a remarkable achievement to maintain the relative coherence of the practice and belief systems of Islam over such vast distances. On the other, its divergent interpretations and prac- tices have repeatedly threatened to disrupt the common framework of references. The aim of this chapter is to discuss conflict on the ‘periphery’ of Islam in terms of this inner-Islamic dialogue that has shaped much of Islamic mobilisation.1 Different trends emerged that at once followed a general pattern while at the same time questioning this pattern and its validity. Consequently we have to grapple with sweeping gener- alisations. To grasp the complexity of the issue we will have to question these very assumptions highlighting their inconsistencies and counter-currents. Centre and Periphery The polarisation between the Arabian roots of Islam and its global spread has given rise to the problematic assumption that in Islam we can clearly distinguish between a centre and a periphery. Such dichotomy reflected the juxtaposition between the tradi- tional ‘centres of Islam’ in Arabia, with Mecca and Medina occupying a special place of pride, and the role and power of scholars, leaders and followers of Islam to inter- pret and practice it as a religion in vastly diverse circumstances on the so-called pe- riphery.

    ک ذرک ذارک وک ذموکر ت وہپاچن داتی ےہ Zikrullah conveys the Zaakir to the one that is being remembered. Title: The Importance of Zikrullah Transcription of a Majlis delivered by: Hadhrat Maulana Shah Abdul Hamid Is’haq Sahib Dâmat Barakatuhum Transcribed By: Mufti Mohammed Desai First Edition: Rabi-Ul-Awwal 1435 / January 2014 Second Edition: Sha’ban 1436 / May 2015 Published by: Khanqah Akhtari, Azaadville Tel:(+2711) 413-2785/6 Cell: (+27) (0)81-591-9082 Fax: (+2711) 413-2787 Email: [email protected] Web: www. ka.org.za Blog: hameediyyah.blogspot.com FOREWORD In the path of Tazkiyah (one’s spiritual reformation), Zikrullah plays a vital and important role. Hadhrat Maulana Hakim Muhammad Akhtar Saheb explains that a person that is not punctual with his Zikrullah starves his soul. On the contrary a person that is punctual with his Zikr and does it according to the manner prescribed by the Sheikh, will reach his destination very quickly. Hadhrat Maulana had delivered a lecture during the month of Ramadaan over a period of three days explaining the importance of Zikrullah in detail, the correct method of making Zikr so that the Zikr is effective. Hadhrat Maulana had also explained the various forms of Muraqaba and the poems to be recited during Zikrullah. May Allah grant us the Taufeeq of being punctual with our Zikr and grant us the ability of making Zikr as prescribed by our Mashaaikh. Ameen!

  • Tableeghi Jamaat: Teachings of Shirk in the Book “Fadhaa'il 'A'maal”
    Teachings of Shirk : Readings in Fadhaa’il Namaaz and Fadhaa’il Dhikr GRV020005 @ WWW.SALAFIPUBLICATIONS.COM Tableeghi Jamaat: Teachings of Shirk in the Book “Fadhaa’il ‘A’maal” Compiled by Abu Muawiya as-Salafi. Editors Introduction All praise is due to Allaah and prayers and peace upon the Messenger of Allaah. To proceed: Following the first paper in this series, in which we hoped that our respected brothers from the Tabligh – and who are described as sincere people who strive for the sake of this deen, inviting the people to the masaajid and to love of the religion, and to the virtues of noble manners – then we did not witness except abuse and foul language from many of their adherents and sympathisers, from across the globe. Many accused the one who had striven to advise them against the books of this group – books that contain the worst forms of Shirk, and innovation – of lying and fabricating against the scholars of Deobandh, whereas in reality, it is the compilers of these stories and fabrications, who themselves are the ones to blame. And this is but a sign of the blatant hizbiyyah (partisanship) that has plagued and infested the Muslim Ummah, ever since the likes of Jamaa’at ut-Tabligh, Ikhwaan and other groups arose to work in the field of da’wah, upon methodologies that are alien to the Prophetic methodology in calling to Allaah. Hence, in what follows, is more evidence of the corruption in the scripture of Tabligh, that is the Fadhaa’il, and it is hoped that the sincere seekers of truth, will leave this scripture and turn instead to the Book and the Sunnah, and indeed leave what is with the Tabligh of blind fanaticism and the hidden secretive call to the ways of the Baatiniyyah that one only witnesses after he has been initiated after years of displaying solid loyalty to them, by going out with them.
