Document of Reconciliation and Forgiveness Between the Families of the Al Ali Bin Ahmad Al Awlaqi Clan PA-X, Peace Agreement Access Tool www.peaceagreements.org Document of Reconciliation and Forgiveness Between the Families of the Al Ali bin Ahmad Al Awlaqi Clan Sunday, 7 April 2019 All praises be to Allah, who said “Whoever pardons and seeks reconciliation, then their reward is with Allah.” And He said: “Whoever saves a life, it will be as if they saved all of humanity.” Based on the generous invitation of our honored sheikh, Sheikh Saleh bin Fareed bin Muhsin Al Awlaqi, the sheikhs, dignitaries, and elders of the Al Ali bin Ahmad bin Ma’n Al Awlaqi clan, and all of the prominent and social figures of the clan, were invited for talks. After discussing the matter amongst themselves, they communicated with the various groups involved and all of those who wish good for the tribe and its future regarding a tribal truce. Their meeting was conducted for the tribe and in order to put out the fire of conflict and evil and to promote anything that will strengthen the ties of family, brotherhood, and love between the clans, branches, and families of the tribe. Based on that, this blessed idea was formed, and it is based on building a foundation for reconciliation, forgiveness, and moving on from the past and all of its catastrophes and injuries. This idea is based on building bridges of love between the various tribal components and bridging the gaps between them. All of the tribes of the Al Ali clan agreed to this, under the leadership and generous sponsorship of our sheikh, Sheikh Saleh bin Fareed Al Awlaqi, during a meeting on Sunday, 7 April 2019. They decided, during this meeting, to deal with and resolve all of the issues of killings between the members of the tribe during the period from 2014 and until today. This agreement is a continuation of previous agreements between the tribes of Al Ali, who have always been at the forefront of finding rational solutions for their problems, since 1992. This document is applicable for all of the issues that were not included within the scope of tribal vendettas as they are known to the tribes of Arabia, and it includes the issues that have come up recently, starting with the accidental killings and followed by cases of killings. These issues were solved with solutions that were incorrect and irrational, and there were specific entities that were benefitting from these problems and feeding into them. Based on that, the families of Al Ali bin Ahmad clan, represented by their sheikhs, dignitaries, elders, prominent figures, and social figures, have met on this blessed day and agreed to put an end to this bloodshed between the members of the clan. This bloodshed has been carried out without purpose and without end, harming everyone, and it does not please Allah, his Messenger, or any human being for this to continue. These representatives saw the importance of finding root solution to all of these problems, ensuring that these solutions please Allah and please all involved, especially since we are in dire need today of unity and to stand together because of the difficult situation that we are going through requires that we all stand together. We also hope to build a solid foundation of brotherhood and cooperation, as well as a safe future for us and our children, free of any of the negatives and diseases of the past. 1 PA-X, Peace Agreement Access Tool www.peaceagreements.org The cases that are addressed by this document were selected, and they are the cases of eleven men who were killed. They were all from the tribes of Ali bin Ahmad, and the following is a list of their names: 1. Ahmad Hanash Awadh 2. Aamer Muhammad Ali Atef 3. Muhammad Abdullah Awadh Al Sawah 4. Jamel Khalid Muhammad Ali Atef 5. Muhammad Salem Ali Numair 6. Saleh Nasser Salem Atiah 7. Ali Muhammad Hussein Al Arsah 8. Abu Bakr Ahmad Hanash Awadh 9. Saleh Salem Al Ja’ar 10. Assem Nasser Atef 11. Abdullah Salem Nasser Al Awfah The representatives of the tribes of Ali bin Ahmad that have signed this agreement have agreed to the following solutions: 1. All of the eleven men who were killed are the men of the Ali bin Ahmad clan, and they are all our brothers and our sons. Their loss is our loss, and it is our blood that was shed. 2. The people of the Ali bin Ahmad clan have decided to forgive and forget for all of their members who were killed. They did this to please Allah first and foremost, and also to strengthen the ties of brotherhood and family, stop the bloodshed between brothers in religion and in tribe, and for their future and the future of their children. 3. This pardon is from the all of the Al Ali clan, and it includes all of them. This pardon cannot be retracted, and there cannot be any claims or suits after this. 4. Sheikh Saleh bin Fareed Al Awlaqi shall pay the compensation to the families of the victims, at the rate of 10 million Yemeni riyals to each one of the families of the victims, and we reiterate that these men who were killed are our brothers and our dead. With this document, we all consider this issue to be done with, and to be the last of our terrible problems from this past. It shall be a foundation for us to build a society that is free of wars and vendettas, and one with a future of peace, stability, and brotherhood for our children and their futures. May Allah guide us.

  • Pre-Islamic Arabia
    Pre-Islamic Arabia The Nomadic Tribes of Arabia The nomadic pastoralist Bedouin tribes inhabited the Arabian Peninsula before the rise of Islam around 700 CE. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Describe the societal structure of tribes in Arabia KEY TAKEAWAYS Key Points Nomadic Bedouin tribes dominated the Arabian Peninsula before the rise of Islam. Family groups called clans formed larger tribal units, which reinforced family cooperation in the difficult living conditions on the Arabian peninsula and protected its members against other tribes. The Bedouin tribes were nomadic pastoralists who relied on their herds of goats, sheep, and camels for meat, milk, cheese, blood, fur/wool, and other sustenance. The pre-Islamic Bedouins also hunted, served as bodyguards, escorted caravans, worked as mercenaries, and traded or raided to gain animals, women, gold, fabric, and other luxury items. Arab tribes begin to appear in the south Syrian deserts and southern Jordan around 200 CE, but spread from the central Arabian Peninsula after the rise of Islam in the 630s CE. Key Terms Nabatean: an ancient Semitic people who inhabited northern Arabia and Southern Levant, ca. 37–100 CE. Bedouin: a predominantly desert-dwelling Arabian ethnic group traditionally divided into tribes or clans. Pre-Islamic Arabia Pre-Islamic Arabia refers to the Arabian Peninsula prior to the rise of Islam in the 630s. Some of the settled communities in the Arabian Peninsula developed into distinctive civilizations. Sources for these civilizations are not extensive, and are limited to archaeological evidence, accounts written outside of Arabia, and Arab oral traditions later recorded by Islamic scholars. Among the most prominent civilizations were Thamud, which arose around 3000 BCE and lasted to about 300 CE, and Dilmun, which arose around the end of the fourth millennium and lasted to about 600 CE.

  • Early Christianity in Arabia : a Historical Essay
    L J B R ^l H Y Tin: T h eological Seminary PRINCETON, N. J. BR 1090 .W74 1855 c.2 Case Wright, Thomas, 1810-1877. Shelf Early Christianity in Arabia Book T EARLY CHRISTIANITY in- ARABIA ; A HISTORICAL ESSAY. BY THOMAS WRIGHT, Esq., M.A., F.S.A., HON. M.R.S.L., &C. CORRESPONDING MEMBER OF THE IMPERIAL INSTITUTE OF FRANCE (ACADEMIC DES INSCRIPTIONS ET BELLES-LETTRES.) LONDON: BEBNARD QUARITCLT, 16, CASTLE STREET, LEICESTER SQUARE. MDCCCLV. PREFACE. When the following* pages were written, the author, who was then very young, pursued with at least considerable zeal the study of the Oriental languages and literature, a study which, upon his entering the university, he laid aside, not again to be resumed. The historical essay now published was written in the belief that the events which it relates had received but little attention in this country, and had never been presented in a popular form to Eng- lish readers ; and at the same time he thought, as he is still inclined to think, that they form an interesting episode in the history of mankind, and that they are a necessary introduction to our knowledge of the origin of that religion which has exercised so mighty an influence on the whole world during the middle ages. He had preserved the manuscript without any determinate idea of publishing it, until the gene- ral interest in the affairs of the East which has been raised by the great events that are now taking- place has led him to believe that his sketch of the IV histor}r of Christianity in Arabia before it was sub- verted by the arms of Muhammed and his followers might find a sufficient number of readers to justify its publication.

The peninsula plays a critical geopolitical role in the Arab world due to its vast reserves of oil and natural gas. The most populous cities on the Arabian Peninsula are Riyadh, Dubai, Jeddah, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Kuwait City, Sanaʽa, and Mecca. Before the modern era, it was divided into four distinct regions: Red Sea Coast (Tihamah), Central Plateau (Al-Yamama), Indian Ocean Coast (Hadhramaut) and Persian Gulf Coast (Al-Bahrain).

  • The Rise of Islam As a Constitutive Revolution
    Chapter 5 Revolution in Early Islam: The Rise of Islam as a Constitutive Revolution SAÏD AMIR ARJOMAND We conceive of revolution in terms of its great social and political consequences. In a forthcoming comparative and historical study of revolutions, I contrast to the state-centered revolutions of modern times with another ideal-type of revolution which I call the ‘integrative’ revolution (see the Appendix). This ideal type of revolution – which is an aspect of all revolutions – expresses two simple ideas: revolutions 1) bring to power a previously excluded revolutionary elite, and 2) enlarge the social basis of the political regime. This makes integrative revolu- tions not just political but also ‘social revolutions.’ Integrative revolution is in turn divided into three subtypes, the two sub-types I derive from Aristotle-Pareto and Ibn Khaldun are so labeled. The ‘constitutive’ type is my own invention, of- fering the sharpest contrast to the state-centered or ‘Tocquevillian’ type in that it is the typical pattern of radical change in the political order through the enlarge- ment of political community in ‘stateless societies,’ be they of 6th century BCE Greece or 7th century CE Arabia. In addition to this structural typology, we need to come to terms with the mo- tives and goals of the revolutionaries as historical actors, and here I do what may be politically incorrect from the viewpoint of the theory community by using the term teleology, not in the strict Aristotelian sense but rather as a term denoting the directionality of revolution. Through teleology, I seek to capture the distinc- tive direction of a revolution, its intended or intentionally prefigured conse- quences.

Prosopographical Approaches to the Nasab Tradition: a Study of Marriage and Concubinage in the Tribe of Muḥammad, 500-750 CE Majied Robinson Thesis submitted for PhD The University of Edinburgh 2013 Abstract This thesis will demonstrate how prosopographical methods can be used to provide a narrative of social change for the Quraysh tribe of Late Antiquity. By applying these methods to records of their marriage behaviour, it will be shown that the pre-Islamic Quraysh led a far more marginal existence than is widely thought, and that in the post- Islamic period they were surprisingly flexible with regard to their marriage practices and ideas on group membership. The first three chapters focus on historiography and methodology. Chapter One introduces the methodological preliminaries that lie at the heart of this research; these concern the nature of the data, the manner in which it is extracted and the way it will be structured within databases.

  • The Politics of Language Standardization and the Nature of Classical Arabic*
    FOLIA ORIENTALIA VOL. LV — 2018 DOI 10.24425/for.2018.124679 Ahmed Ech-Charfi Mohammed V University in Rabat The politics of language standardization and the nature of Classical Arabic* Abstract This article approaches the nature of Classical Arabic from the ideological discourse about it. More specifically, it investigates the controversy about “pure” and “Arabized” Arabs which was raised during the Umayyad period. The paper claims that underlying this controversy was an attempt by northern and southern Arabians to appropriate the symbolic capital of the sacred language. The tribal genealogies developed during the same period are also claimed to reflect political alliances. A third claim made in this connection is that Basran and Kufan grammarians were probably also involved indirectly by selecting data on which they based their linguistic analyses. Keywords Classical Arabic, tribal genealogy, pure and Arabized Arabs, Basra; Kufa. Introduction There is wide divergence between Arabists as to the sociolinguistic situation in pre-Islamic Arabia and, more particularly, about the status of Classical Arabic within this situation. Two major opinions can be identified in this respect: one defends the hypothesis that the language of pre-Islamic poetry and the Qur’an was a poetic koiné distinct from the varieties used for everyday communication; the other, popular among Arab scholars, but also among some Western Arabists, supports the idea that Classical Arabic was based largely on the language spoken natively by the tribes of Arabia (cf. Owens, 2006; Versteegh, 1997, 2008, among * Special thanks are due to Kristen Brustad, whose lectures and discussions sparked my interest in the topic.

  • Yemen in Early Islam an Examination of Non-Tribal Traditions
    YEMEN IN EARLY ISLAM AN EXAMINATION OF NON-TRIBAL TRADITIONS BY SULIMAN BASHEAR t is unanimously agreed upon by scholars that the concepts I «Yemen» and «Yemenism» (yamaniyya) have figured centrally in the history of early Islam down to the Abbasid Period. But, so far, attention has been overwhelmingly limited to studying the elements of genealogical-tribal affiliations and political loyalties revealed by Muslim traditional sources on these conceptsl. At the same time, no serious attempt was made at examining the clear religious con- notations of yamiiniyya or even the question of delimiting yaman in early Islam. The present paper strives primarily to contribute to the study of this latter issue. In order to do so, not only geographic and lexical sources will be consulted but commentaries on some traditional and Quranic occurrences with relevant bearings will also be scrutinized; a task which hopefully will help to illuminate some religious aspects of these concepts as well. Going Right, Going South The term «yaman» is presented in Arabic lexicography as being derived from the root YM1V? which, like in other semitic languages, 1 E.g.: Goldziher's views on the South-North tribal division and his comments on the studies of T. Nöldeke and others, in his: Muslim Studies, vol. 1, Eng. ed., N.Y. 1966, 90-5. On the role played by this tribal rivalry all along the Umayyad period see: J.
