Muhammad Speaking of the Messiah: Jesus in the Hadīth Tradition
MUHAMMAD SPEAKING OF THE MESSIAH: JESUS IN THE HADĪTH TRADITION A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Fatih Harpci (May 2013) Examining Committee Members: Prof. Khalid Y. Blankinship, Advisory Chair, Department of Religion Prof. Vasiliki Limberis, Department of Religion Prof. Terry Rey, Department of Religion Prof. Zameer Hasan, External Member, TU Department of Physics © Copyright 2013 by Fatih Harpci All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Much has been written about Qur’ānic references to Jesus (‘Īsā in Arabic), yet no work has been done on the structure or formal analysis of the numerous references to ‘Īsā in the Hadīth, that is, the collection of writings that report the sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad. In effect, non-Muslims and Muslim scholars neglect the full range of Prophet Muhammad’s statements about Jesus that are in the Hadīth. The dissertation’s main thesis is that an examination of the Hadīths’ reports of Muhammad’s words about and attitudes toward ‘Īsā will lead to fuller understandings about Jesus-‘Īsā among Muslims and propose to non-Muslims new insights into Christian tradition about Jesus. In the latter process, non-Muslims will be encouraged to re-examine past hostile views concerning Muhammad and his words about Jesus. A minor thesis is that Western readers in particular, whether or not they are Christians, will be aided to understand Islamic beliefs about ‘Īsā, prophethood, and eschatology more fully. In the course of the dissertation, Hadīth studies will be enhanced by a full presentation of Muhammad’s words about and attitudes toward Jesus-‘Īsā.

Practices of Islamic State (ISIS) in the Context of Islamic Eschatology
Practices of Islamic State (ISIS) in the Context of Islamic Eschatology Andrey Chuprygin, Senior Lecturer, School of Asian Studies, National Research University “Higher School of Economics”, 101000, 20, Myasnitskaya str., Moscow, Russian Federation, E-mail: [email protected] Andrey Kudelin, Phd, Department of World History, Peoples’ Friendship University, 117198, Moscow Miklukho- Maklaya str. 6, E-mail: [email protected] Valeriy Matrosov, Graduate, School of Asian Studies, National Research University “Higher School of Economics”, Master Student, Faculty of Asian and African Studies, Saint Petersburg State University, 199034, 7-9, Universitetskaya nab., St. Petersburg, Russia, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The History has shown once again, that one cannot fight something that one does not understand. In modern warfare both the military and the ideological fronts are at the same level of intensity, as the victory always depends not only on battlefield triumphs, but also on enlisting new adherents and holding to the old ones. And after two years of heroic fight of the “Obama Alliance” against IS in Syria and Iraq there is a clear indication, that Caliph Ibrahim (Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi) is winning on both fronts. The main goal of this article is an attempt to explain reasons underlying the success of ISIS leadership, that allowed the Islamists not only to evade the “degrade and destroy” strategy of the coalition, but also to build a new state, in the light of the context of Islamic eschatological concepts. To reach this goal, we strive to not only understand the perspectives of this newly- founded state and possible forecasts for its sustainability, but also to look into the reasons of IS attractiveness for large groups of people from a variety of countries and regions, through the lens of Islamic eschatology.

GCSE Religious Studies Name
GCSE Religious Studies Islam: Beliefs & Teachings Workbook Name: Diversity of Beliefs within Islam Islam has two main sects: Sunni and Shi’a. Sunni Sunni form the majority of the Muslim community. Four successors, called caliphs, were appointed to lead the Muslim community after the death of Muhammad (PBUH) in 632CE: Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman and Ali. These men were chosen in turn and known as the ‘four rightly guided caliphs’, led the community for the next 24 years. Sunni Muslims believe in the authority of the Qur’an and Hadiths, interpreted by leading Muslim scholars. Sunni comes from the word Sunnah, which means ‘custom’ or ‘way’. Sunni believe they are the true followers of the way of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). They believe that as Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did not choose his successor, election is the right way. About 90% of all Muslims are Sunni. Shi’a Shi’a is the second largest branch of Islam. Shi’a refer to their chosen leader as the ‘imam’ and they believe that each imam must be chosen by the previous imam. All Shi’a believe that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) appointed Ali as his successor. They claim the first three caliphs ignored the Prophet’s choice, so they are only seen as companions. Shi’a believe the imams have authority from Allah and can interpret the Qur’an and the Laws of Islam. They believe the last imam disappeared or went to the sky without dying. The hidden imam, Mehdi, is present in the world, yet is unseen. He helps those in need and tries to convert all humankind to Islam.

Building an Islamic Psychology and Psychotherapy: a Grounded Theory Study
Building an Islamic Psychology and Psychotherapy: A Grounded Theory Study by Abdallah Eric David ROTHMAN A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Psychology Kingston University London June 2019 Abstract At a time when there is increasing focus on the need to adapt approaches to psychotherapy to align with the cultural and religious/spiritual orientations of clients, this thesis explores the ontological foundations of psychology from an Islamic paradigm and how these foundational assumptions about human nature can inform practical applications for Islamic psychotherapy. The thesis presents a detailed literature review and two phases of the research study that both used a constructivist version of the grounded theory approach. In the first phase of the study, 18 scholars of Islam were interviewed as “key informants” whose input provided insights into the various branches of knowledge within the Islamic tradition that are relevant to the construction of an Islamic paradigm of human psychology. From the analysis of the interview transcripts, codes were created relating to concepts of the psyche, notions of human development, and understanding of the structure of the soul from the participants’ understanding of Islamic religious sources. An Islamic model of the soul was constructed from these findings. This is presented as a framework for the development of clinical applications in psychotherapy. In the second phase, 18 clinicians who integrate Islamic principles in their approaches with clients in psychotherapy were interviewed. From the analysis of the interview transcripts, codes were created based on the theoretical categories from the first phase, explicating how the Islamic model of the soul generated in that phase can be used to inform practical approaches to therapeutic application.
