  • The Late Sheikh Abdullah Azzam's Books
    Combating Terrorism Center Guest Commentary The Late Sheikh Abdullah Azzam’s Books Part III: Radical Theories on Defending Muslim Land through Jihad LCDR Youssef Aboul‐Enein, MSC, USN The Combating Terrorism Center United States Military Academy West Point, NY http://www.ctc.usma.edu Please direct all inquiries to Brian Fishman [email protected] 845.938.2801 Introduction Sheikh Abdullah Azzam is a name that only gets attention among true students of Islamist militancy, yet he has had a tremendous impact on Usama Bin Laden and left him with the tools needed to establish a global jihadist network. Azzam was born in Jenin, Palestine in 1941, and was evicted from his hometown of Jenin in the 1967 Six‐Day War. He spent years pursuing his studies in Islamic jurisprudence attending university in Syria and graduating with a doctorate in Islamic studies from the prestigious Al‐Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt. He was nicknamed the fighting cleric for his obsession with jihadist ideology and the militant works of ibn Taymiyyah (1258 AD). Azzam believed the only way to reclaim his lost homeland was through violent jihad which later became his bsession. On or about 1980, Azzam realized that the Arab jihadists fighting the Soviets in Afghanistan required organization, safe house, and structure. He established Maktab al‐Khidmat lil Mujahideen (The Services Offices for Arab Jihadists) which attracted Usama Bin Laden, then graduating from King Abdul‐ Aziz University to join his new venture. Azzam convinced Bin Laden that his financial connections, business experience, and dedication would be of great use to his new organization in Pakistan.

    An Arabic Marriage Contract and Subsequent Divorce from Mamluk Jerusalem: The Ḥaram al-Sharīf No. 302 iruhammaMuhamMuhaMBruham A Marriage Contract and Divorce Muhammad N. Abdul-Rahman King Faisal University An Arabic Marriage Contract and Subsequent Divorce from Mamluk Jerusalem: The Ḥaram al-Sharīf No. 302 Introduction Documents from the Ḥaram al-Sharīf 1 are considered to be among the most im- portant historical sources from Mamluk Jerusalem because there are so few nar- 10.6082/pkrn-4q45 rative or documentary sources that chronicle the city in this period. In addition, URI they are the oldest extant documents concerning the affairs of the city’s Muslims in particular, and its Jews and Christians in general. Among the most important of the Ḥaram al-Sharīf documents are those related to the situation of dhimmīs in Jerusalem during the Mamluk era. 2 As is well known, the Jews and Christians shared their lives in Jerusalem with Muslims, and the mingling of customs and traditions was a defining characteristic of the society of medieval Jerusalem. This is a revised version of a paper given at Writing Semitic: Scripts, Documents, Languages in Historical Context: The Sixth International Society for Arabic Papyrology Conference, hosted by the Committee of Semitic Philology of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, 7–10 October 2014.

  • Gaelic Names of Plants
    [DA 1] <eng> GAELIC NAMES OF PLANTS [DA 2] “I study to bring forth some acceptable work: not striving to shew any rare invention that passeth a man’s capacity, but to utter and receive matter of some moment known and talked of long ago, yet over long hath been buried, and, as it seemed, lain dead, for any fruit it hath shewed in the memory of man.”—Churchward, 1588.

WHOSE LIFE HAS BEEN DEVOTED TO NATURAL SCIENCE, AT WHOSE SUGGESTION THIS COLLECTION OF GAELIC NAMES OF PLANTS WAS UNDERTAKEN, This Work IS RESPECTFULLY INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR. [DA 6] [Blank] [DA 7] PREFACE. THE Gaelic Names of Plants, reprinted from a series of articles in the ‘Scottish Naturalist,’ which have appeared during the last four years, are published at the request of many who wish to have them in a more convenient form. There might, perhaps, be grounds for hesitation in obtruding on the public a work of this description, which can only be of use to comparatively few; but the fact that no book exists containing a complete catalogue of Gaelic names of plants is at least some excuse for their publication in this separate form.

  • Michael Falk, Canada 356
    Michael Falk, Canada 356 On the Name of the Weekly Day of Rest Michael Falk Canada Abstract In antiquity, Jews developed the concept of a seven-day week with the seventh day, named ‘Shabbat’, devoted to rest and worship. This concept was later borrowed by other religions and cultures but the day of rest was shifted to other days of the week. When the name ‘Shabbat’ was transmitted through Islam, it continued to denote the name of the seventh day of the week, but no longer the day of rest. When the name was transmitted through Christianity, however, a more complicated situation developed. Some day names derived from ‘Shabbat’ now denote the seventh day of the week, but no longer the day of rest and worship, while other names derived from ‘Shabbat’ denote the day of rest, but no longer the seventh day of the week. Many terms derived from ‘Shabbat’ denote new and unrelated concepts. This paper discusses the etymology and the range of meanings of the root ‘sh-b-t’ in biblical and modern Hebrew. It then traces the semantic changes that the day name ‘Shabbat’ has undergone upon being borrowed into other languages and cultures. In addition, it examines the names of Saturday obtained from sources other than Shabbat. *** Introduction In Hebrew, both biblical and modern, the first six days of the week have no names, only numbers. Saturday, the seventh day and the Jewish day of rest and worship, is the only day of the week that has a name, Shabbat. This paper is about that name, Shabbat, and what happened to it as the use of the seven-day week spread out about the world.

  • Translating Arabic Names Into English and the Possibility of Standardising the Mechanism of Their Transliteration
    International Journal of English Language and Linguistics Research Vol.4, No.2, pp.1-16, February 2016 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) TRANSLATING ARABIC PROPER NAMES: A FOREIGNISING APPROACH Ahmad Mustafa Halimah Associate Professor of Applied Linguistics and Translation Studies Department of English Language, College of Arts, King Faisal University, AlAhsa, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ABSTRACT: The recent increase in random approaches to translating Arabic proper names into English has led to serious discrepancies in their transliterations as well as difficulties and problems in identifying one’s identity. This paper is an attempt to shed light on this phenomenon and to investigate the many problems and difficulties encountered in transliterating Arabic proper names in birth, marriage, passport and other personal documents. Venuti’s Foreignisation Approach, a theoretical framework for standardisation of the transliteration of Arabic proper names, was used for analysis and discussion. Results of the analysis and discussion of samples in this paper have indicated that there is an urgent need for a mechanism in order to help use a standardised profile for transliterating Arabic proper names all around the Arab world. To achieve this objective, a list of suggestions was made for use by those in authority and those interested in carrying out further research in this field. KEYWORDS: Arabic Proper Names, Transliteration, Problems, Domestication, Foreignisation, Authoritative Standardization, Culture INTRODUCTION Translating proper names is a remarkable area of translation and a growing area of research. In translating proper names in Russian prose texts, where one name could be given ‘multiple variants’, Bassnett (1980:127) argues that the translator should consider “the function of the naming system, rather than the system itself” as each language has its own naming system and this might cause some kind of confusion for the Target Language (TL) reader.

  • Authority Control of Arabic Personal Names from the Classical Period at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina
    Authority control of Arabic personal names from the Classical period at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina A presentation by Iman Khairy Senior Cataloger Bibliotheca Alexandrina Alexandria, Egypt Email: [email protected] to the MELCOM International 27th annual conference in Alexandria May 23-25, 2005 (revised version : January 2006) ABSTRACT This paper is intended to illustrate the Bibliotheca Alexandrina methods of authorizing Arabic old names and creating Bi-Script Arabic Roman authority file using the VTLS/VIRTUA LIS as a first step towards cooperative projects with union catalogues and authority files. The significant need of mutually accepted standards for exchange of Arabic script Name authority records is also examined with proposed models of cooperation. ___________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Each online Arabic catalogue consulted uses its own methods of authorizing old Arabic names although they use the same descriptive rules. For example, there are various reference sources and methodologies used for authorizing old Arabic names which lead to various forms used for the same name in each catalogue. Thus, these differences in recording the same old Arabic name in each Arabic online catalogue may stand as a barrier for cooperation in an Arabic script union catalogue and authority file. However, the problem is once a library has defined and used a method for authorizing and entering names in their catalogue it is entirely impractical to abandon this method and turn to another defined method for authorizing and entering names, due to the enormity of the task of reauthorizing and re-entering all the names in its catalogue again. To solve this problem the BA has implemented a methodology of authorizing old Arabic names by recording all the forms used in the four main reference sources most commonly used by Arabic script libraries.

In particular, it focuses on his two main exegetical works entitled Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim which he authored with the assistance of his pupils from 1937 until his demise in 1969, and a work on legal verses of the Quran entitled Tafsir al-Ahkam. Due to its nature, appropriate qualitative methods are applied in this study comprising mainly historical, library research and content analysis. The findings highlight some of the salient features of the exegetical methods of the author and its primal role in influencing the style of exegetical composition by succeeding authors. These books also reflect the concern of the local scholars on the needs of the Muslims for credible religious works and references in languages accessible to them, which have also had its impact on the development in the field of Quranic exegesis in the region. Keywords: Abdul Halim Hasan, Quran, Exegesis, Religious Discourse, Malay World INTRODUCTION The Quran, as the ultimate source of Islam, has been the subject of studies and analysis by scholars since its revelation to Prophet Muhammad some 1,400 years ago.
