  • Title: Women of Agency: the Penned Thoughts of Bengali Muslim
    Title: Women of Agency: The Penned Thoughts of Bengali Muslim Women Writers of 9th 20th the Late 1 and Early Century Submitted by: Irteza Binte-Farid In Fulfillment of the Feminist Studies Honors Program Date: June 3, 2013 introduction: With the prolusion of postcolornal literature and theory arising since the 1 9$Os. unearthing subaltern voices has become an admirable task that many respected scholars have undertaken. Especially in regards to South Asia, there has been a series of meticulouslyresearched and nuanced arguments about the role of the subaltern in contributing to the major annals of history that had previously been unrecorded, greatly enriching the study of the history of colonialism and imperialism in South Asia. 20th The case of Bengali Muslim women in India in the late l91 and early century has also proven to be a topic that has produced a great deal of recent literature. With a history of scholarly 19th texts, unearthing the voices of Hindu Bengali middle-class women of late and early 2O’ century, scholars felt that there was a lack of representation of the voices of Muslim Bengali middle-class women of the same time period. In order to counter the overwhelming invisibility of Muslim Bengali women in academic scholarship, scholars, such as Sonia Nishat Amin, tackled the difficult task of presenting the view of Muslim Bengali women. Not only do these new works fill the void of representing an entire community. they also break the persistent representation of Muslim women as ‘backward,’ within normative historical accounts by giving voice to their own views about education, religion, and society) However, any attempt to make ‘invisible’ histories ‘visible’ falls into a few difficulties.

  • 100 Justin Jones and Ali Usman Qasmi, the Shi'a in Modern South
    Zaheer Abbas Ex Historia 100 Justin Jones and Ali Usman Qasmi, The Shi’a in Modern South Asia: Religion, History and Politics (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2015), 218 pp., ISBN: 9781107108905, £67.00. A valuable addition to the steadily growing corpus of literature on the ‘minority’ Islamic sects of South Asia, The Shi’a in Modern South Asia is part of a recent trend to move away from the atabat-i- aliyat (the Shi’ite shrine cities of Iraq), the traditional lens employed in much existing scholarship on Shi’i Islam. One effect of this realignment led scholars to focus more closely on the sizeable Shi’i communities of South Asia, resulting in a spurt of literature from the mid-1980s.1 Employing a similar approach, the eight chapters that make up this text contribute to this widening scholarship. Of special mention are two important correctives the volume makes to existing literature: it vests equal space and import to a study of the less numerous Shi’a subdivisions of Isma’ilis and Khojas, and second, it moves beyond devotional rituals and popular religious practices to aspects which allow it to uncover both the internal and international workings of the Shi’i community of South Asia. Sajjad Rizvi’s chapter highlights the contributions the noted Shi’a mujtahid Sayyid Dildar ‘Ali Nasirabadi (1753–1820), made in lending a theological legitimacy to the rulers of Awadh. The ‘new conception of Shi‘i theology’ (p. 33) devised by Sayyid Dildar Ali promoted ‘anti-Sunnism, anti- Akhbarism, and anti-Sufism’ (p. 35) leading gradually to the emergence of an exclusivist and distinctive form of Twelver Shi’ism in the state of Awadh.

Introduction Islam emerged in a society which already had an economic history. Despite the fact that the early Arab society was pagan in nature, they knew the value of earning and therefore traded. They were also engaged in a wide scale barter economy as this met their immediate needs and wants. Their would have naturally had people minting gold and silver coins since the prevalence of the gold dinār and the silver dirham bear testimony to the usage of these two metallic based coins as the store of economic value and as a medium of commercial exchange. We do take note that early Arab society had no standard mint. The coins must therefore have been produced by different goldsmiths and blacksmiths. However, the coins could be distinguished to some level or the other in regard to where they contained more gold/silver or more alloys.

Shaikh Ahmad Sirhindi, after completion of education visited the court of Akbar, the great, and met Abu-al-Fazal & Faizi who were the religious patrons of the court of Akbar and protagonists of Din-e-Akbari.
