J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 3(3)1215-1223, 2013 ISSN 2090-4304 Journal of Basic and Applied © 2013, TextRoad Publication Scientific Research www.textroad.com The Quranic Bases of Magic Prevention in Islamic Jurisprudence Dr. Seyyed Mohammed Reza Ayati, Seyyed Mehdi Ahmadi Divinity & Philosophy Faculty ,Department of Law & Jurisprudence, Sciences and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran ABSTRACT The occult sciences which magic has a share in it has always been one of the challenging and convoluted subjects in all religions especially in Islam. The divisions taken from magic and witchcraft and the exceptions existent in the zone mentioned all imply prevention and make sentencing any divine law about the subject difficult. The merciful Quran has not said anything clearly about the prevention but there are some evidence and quotation in some verses that according to the interpreters in some cases which refers to wizardry, it is prevented by the merciful book. In other cases the merciful book knows God's will the only source of natural traverse in the universe. It considers no real basis for wizardry and when it is so, there would remain no place for prevention. On the other hand, it is seen in some quotations that some parts of the aforementioned subject is admissible thoroughly. KEYWORDS: Occult Sciences, Wizardry, Witchcraft, Quran, Spells INTRODUCTION Wizardry has an old background in religions and human history. Maybe we can know magic in a view the beginning of human sciences especially medicine. There were witches who cured spiritual and physical illness by special methods. They held the religious rituals in privacy.

Madrasah Education System and Terrorism: Reality and Misconception
92 Madrasah Education System And Terrorism: Reality And Misconception Mohd Izzat Amsyar Mohd Arif ([email protected]) The National University of Malaysia, Bangi Nur Hartini Abdul Rahman ([email protected]) Ministry of Education, Malaysia Hisham Hanapi ([email protected]) Tunku Abdul Rahman University College, Kuala Lumpur Abstract Since the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the Islamic schools known as madrasah have been of increasing interest to analysts and to officials involved in formulating U.S. foreign policy toward the Middle East, Central, and Southeast Asia. Madrasah drew added attention when it became known that several Taliban leaders and Al-Qaeda members had developed radical political views at madrasah in Pakistan, some of which allegedly were built and partially financed through Saudi Arabian sources. These revelations have led to accusations that madrasah promote Islamic extremism and militancy, and are a recruiting ground for terrorism. Others maintain that most of these religious schools have been blamed unfairly for fostering anti-U.S. sentiments and argue that madrasah play an important role in countries where millions of Muslims live in poverty and the educational infrastructure is in decay. This paper aims to study a misconception of the role and functions of Islamic traditional religious schools which have been linked with the activities of terrorism. The study will be specifically focus on practice of the traditional Islamic school, which is locally called as ‘madrasah system’. Keywords: madrasah, terrorism, Islamic schools INTRODUCTION The September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York changed the international politics, security and law. The attacks gave rise to the new catchword of war against terrorism, which has been universally accepted as a new millennium global threat.

The Concept of Jihad in Islam
IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 21, Issue 9, Ver. 7 (Sep. 2016) PP 35-42 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org The Concept of Jihad In Islam Ramlan TengkuErwinsyahbana Nurul Hakim Abstract.:-It is an undisputable fact that jihad is an Islamic teaching that is explicitly mentioned in Quran, Hadith, ijma'as well as various fiqh literature from classical time to the contemporary time. Jihad term often used for things that are destructive by western scholars and society. For them, jihad is synonymous with terrorism. The similarization of the word Jihad with the word terrorism in the Western perception is strongly reinforced by a series of terror committed by Muslims in the name of jihad. These acts have been increasingly affecting the interpretation of the word jihad in a negative way although in reality that is not the case in a contemporary context. Jihad in contemporary understanding is not just a war against visible enemies but also a war against the devil and carnality. Even a war against visible enemies that are written in classical fiqh books has now replaced by a contemporary interpretation of jihad against the enemies, as was done by Dr. ZakirNaik. KEYWORDS:Concept, Jihad and Islam I. INTRODUCTION When the 9/11 attack hit the United States more than a decade ago, the term jihad became a trending topic worldwide. The US and other Western countries in general claim that the perpetrators of the 9/11 attack were following the doctrine of Jihad in Islam in order to fight against America and its allies around the world.

Prophet Lut (A.S.) and Bal لﺑ : the Nahida S. Nisa Tafsir
: ﺑﻞ Prophet Lut (a.s.) and Bal The Nahida S. Nisa Tafsir as understood by Mehedi A. Ali Introduction and Methodology Nahida S. Nisa, writer and exegete, uncovered through a ready acceptance of the invitation from the Qur’an itself to study it that Lut (a.s). clarifies homosexuality was not the sin of his townsfolk first and foremost in explicit Qur’an verses. This Qur’an-centric argument, staying true to Arabic grammar as its primary strength, is fortified by supporting context, and tested for consistency with all other remaining verses of the scripture through a semantic and thematic analysis. It was veiled only to those who did not allow the Qur’an to speak for itself but permitted egregious and excessive insertions unscreened by relevant verses, subthemes, and the entire Book. As a result, revisionist theories and misguided interpretation were forced into the verses. Because the message of Lut (a.s.) can be applied to real world events, such events can be referenced for better understanding. I aim to minimize this here because the focus is to stay Qur’an-centric, so examples are brief. Links for further reading are provided to the reader to pursue at their own discretion. Classical and modern Arabic dictionaries and popular English translations are used to study the verses, not to introduce bold, non-Qur’anic details of the narrative. Ironically, there might be a litany of accusations of “twisting verses to suit desires,” a common agitated projection by deniers, as opposed to sincere disagreement. Again, this presentation of the Nahida S.

Ummah", a Religio-Communal Concept of the Qur'an: Past and Present
POLITICAL LANGUAGE OF TAFSIR Redefining of "Ummah", a Religio-Communal Concept of the Qur'an: Past and Present Assist, Prof. Dr. Necmettin GÖKKIR* ABSTRACT The terra of "political" refers to all concepts dealing with government, its system, institutions and also lo contemporary political concepts, theories, values, and models which belong to a certain time and hence are conjectural, contextual and historical. In this respect, "political interpretation" means to read the text in the light of reader's contemporary political concepts, theories, values and models. In this regard, this paper will study on this kind of reading, namely política) interpretation of the Qur'an. How the Qur'an is explained by political concepts or in other words how the Qur'an is politicized is the main subject of the paper. The subject of the "redefinition of ummah..." is only taken as a case for the main purpose. Key Words; Ummah, Muslim Community, Political Theories, Political Interpretation. ÖZET TEFSİR'İN SİYASİ DİLİ Kur'an'da Dini-Toplumsal bir Kavram olan "Ümmefin Geçmişte ve Günümüzde Yeniden Tanımlanması Çeşitli siyasi ve ideolojik teorilerden ve pers pekti il erden Kur'an'ı yorumlamak şeklinde tarif edebileceğimiz "politik tefsir" bu çalışmanın bir konusu olacaktır. Politik kavramı içerisine tabii olarak devlet teşkilatlanması, yönetimi, kurumlan girmekte ise de, bunlara ek olarak ayrıca güncel, belli bir döneme ait kavram ve değerleri de katmamız mümkündür. Bu nedenle Politik Tefsiri, "Kur'an'ı toplumun güncel siyasi ve İdeolojik kavram ve teorileri ile uyumlu bir şekilde yorumlanması" şeklinde tanımlayabiliriz. Ancak bu çift taraflı bir eylemin sadece tek tarafım göstermek olacaktır. Politik tefsir her ne kadar Kıır'an'm çağdaş kavramlarla anlaşılması ve işlevsel olarak dinamik!eştirilmesi olarak tanımlanırsa da diğer taraftan, bu çağdaş kavramların İslamlaştınlması ve meşru 1 aştın İm ası eylemi olarak da tanımlanabilir.

Gafoordeen Senior Lecturer in Arabic and Islamic Civilization, Faculty of Arts, University of Colombo, Sri Lanka Abstract: There are numerous forms of explanation for qur’anic verses existing by the Muslim Intellectuals since reveled of holy Quran since 7th century. This manuscript attempts to present greatest proper approaches of explanation employed by the Mufassiroon. Using content analysis procedures and expressive attitude, the expansion of tafsir since prophet Mohamed period to 20 th century are explored and described systematically Outcome indicates that there are seven methods of interpretation used mostly to explain meaning of the verses of holy quran. Entire methods are divided into three basic groups: Tafsir bi-l-riwaya, tafsir bi-l-diraya and Tafsir bi-l- ishara. The works of the mufessireen Quranic exegesis should also be appreciated in order to remain aware of the meaning of the holy Quran upon which all expiation rests. Keywords: Interpretation, Methodology, Tafsir-riwaya, Tafsir- diraya Introduction Tafsir (interpretation) of the Quran is the most significant science for Muslims. All matters concerning the Islamic way of life are related to it in one sense or another for right application of Islam is based on proper understanding of the direction from Allah. Without tafsir there would be no right understanding of various verses of the Quran. The word of Tafsir is derived from the Arabic word fassara, which literally means to lift the curtain, to make clear, to show the objective.

The Creation of Women from the Perspective of Mufassirun and Muhaddithun Between Past and Present Scholars
MATEC Web of Conferences 150, 05064 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201815005064 MUCET 2017 The Creation of Women from the Perspective of Mufassirun and Muhaddithun Between Past and Present Scholars Roshimah Shamsudin1,*, Aiza Maslan Baharudin 1Universiti Sains Malaysia Abstract. The creation of women is under constant debate, not only among the Islamic scholars but outspreads to feminists both from the west as well muslims.This debate stems from the differing views of the preceding and contemporary scholars in interpreting the texts from the Quran and the Hadiths on the creation of human particularly Eve as the first woman created by Allah. The majority of the mufassirun and hadith scholars in the past pioneered the view that the origin of human; that Eve was created from the rib of Adam a.s. This view was regarded by the feminists as derogatory to women. The contemporary mufassirun and muhaddithun are however of the opposite opinion whereby Eve’s creation was equal to that of Adam’s a.s; thereby indicating that creation of Eve did not originate from Adam a.s. Hence this study was undertaken with the aim of reviewing the opinions of the tafsir and hadith figures by comparing the views between the past and present scholars in interpretation of Quranic texts as well as hadiths pertaining to the origin and creation of women. This study also extends to examining the arguments on which the opinions of each group were deduced.In order to achieve the above objectives, this qualitative form of study will employ data collection method, conducted through library research to obtain data relating to the origin of creation of women, in particular turath literatures in tafsir for example Tafsir Ibn Kathir and tafsir works by the leading tafsir scholars in the like of Syed Qutb; in addition to the past and present books on syarah hadith.

The Application Methods of the Holy Quran's Interpretations in Islamic
International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences 2017, Vol. 7, No. 2 ISSN: 2222-6990 The Application Methods of the Holy Quran’s Interpretations in Islamic-Related Research Abdul Hanis Embong1, Mohd Shukri Hanapi2 1Lecturer, Department of State and Civilization, Center for Foundation and Liberal Education (PPAL), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT). 2Senior Lecturer, Center for Islamic Development Management Studies (ISDEV), Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i2/2661 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i2/2661 Abstract This study examines the method of the Holy Quran’s interpretations that can be used in any Islamic-related research. The truth is in any Islamic-related research, common research method used nowadays is not relevant as it is believed to have its own weaknesses in several aspects such as in philosophies, theories and techniques. This is because the common research method does not have sufficient analysis tool especially in Islamic-related research and this could be the reason why the outcome obtained from a research is not accurate enough. Thus, that is why the common method is not relevant to be used in any Islamic-related research. Hence, is there any method that is relevant to be used in conducting Islamic-related research? To answer this question, the interpretation method has its own way of work that is well-organized and it is able to become a great method to be used in any Islamic-related research. To attain towards the objective, a library research was conducted to collect the data in regard to the process of Holy Quran’s interpretation as a whole through classic and modern masterpiece.
