Is Any Benefit Prohibited in Islam?
Munich Personal RePEc Archive Is any benefit prohibited in Islam? Abozaid, Abdulazeem Qatar Foundation 2018 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/92523/ MPRA Paper No. 92523, posted 21 Mar 2019 09:41 UTC IS ANY BENEFIT FROM A LOAN PROHIBITED IN ISLAM? Abdulazeem Abozaid Qatar Foundation Abstract It is a well-established rule in the Shariah (Islamic law) that a loan contract is of a charitable nature and as such the lender may not stipulate any excess or benefit from the borrower. However, it is also known in the Shariah that if the benefit from a loan comes to the lender voluntarily and it is not stipulated in the loan contract then it is permissible. This exception derives from some reports that the Prophet used to repay his debt with some increment, and to this effect he said: "The best amongst you are those who benevolently repay their debts”. Moreover, within Islamic law there exist some juristic opinions allowing the lenders to derive some indirect benefits from the loan contract, such as stipulating that the repayment of the debt is to be made in a place different from the one where the loan was first initiated, as this may save transfer costs and effort, or in utilizing, with conditions, the assets mortgaged against the loan. These exceptions may in principle nullify the general understanding that “any loan which results in a benefit is considered a form of usury” in Islam. The paper comes to define the prohibited benefits on a loan in Islam, thereby building the basis for addressing important questions, such as: i) are reciprocal loans prohibited in Islam? ii) is repaying the loan with excess to cater for inflation lawful? iii) is the benefit that pertains to the lender and does not harm or burden the borrower lawful? Answering these questions shall help set out the parameters for what constitutes unlawful benefits obtainable from a loan contract. -
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. -

IMPLEMENTATION OF ZUHD IN THE ISLÂH MOVEMENT OF SHAYKH ABDUL QADIR AL-JILANI (D. 561 H./1161 CE.) Nur Hadi Ihsan1, Moh. Isom Mudin2, Amir Sahidin3 1, 2, 3Universitas Darussalam (UNIDA) Gontor, Ponorogo, Indonesia Jl. Raya Siman No.Km. 6, Dusun I, Siman, Kec. Siman, Kabupaten Ponorogo, Jawa Timur 63471 E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract: The issue of zuhd is very urgent to deal with, especially in the current era of modernization which has had negative impacts in all fields; in education, social, political, and cultural. Therefore, an islâh movement is needed to minimize and even eliminate these negative impacts. Among the Sufi scholars who were very persistent in implementing the islâh movement was Shaykh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani. At a time when there was a lot of depravity and shocks in his time, al-Jilani with his zuhd was able to play a good role in this islâh movement. Therefore, this article will specifically discuss the implementation of zuhd in the islâh movement of Shaykh Abdul Qadir al-Jilani. Using the descriptive-analytical method, this study finds that the implementation of zuhd in the islâh movement of al-Jilani includes three things, namely in interpreting the true meaning and understanding of zuhd; in education and teaching, as well as in his lectures and preaching. Thus, al-Jilani was one of the Sufi scholars who integrated the teaching of zuhd with his islâh movements. Finally, it seems justifiable to assert that integrating zuhd with the islâh movement is very important to overcome the destructive impacts of modernization. -

The Nature of Riba in Islam
THE NATURE OF RIBA IN ISLAM By: M. Umer Chapra1 Abstrak Perdebatan masalah riba seperti tidak pernah selesai di diskusikan oleh banyak kalangan, baik akademis, organisasi keagamaan, bahkan sampai pada forum-forum intenasional. Beberapa terminologi dibahas dengan baik dalam tulisan ini yang dimulai dengan pelarangan riba itu sendiri kemudian pembagian-pembagian riba, diantaranya riba al-Nasi’ah dan riba al-Fadl, serta implikasi dari dua bentuk riba tersebut. Pembahasan didukung dengan pendapat-pendapat para ulama dan ekonom yang merujuk langsung dari ayat-ayat al-Qur’an, sampai pada perdebatan hukum. Demikian juga al-Qur’an sangat jelas membedakan antara riba dan perdagangan, namun pelarangan riba sangat jelas bahkan diperkuat dengan hadits-hadits yang dengan eksplisit melarang riba. Dijelaskan pula tentang perbedaan antara riba dan bunga bank. Islam sangat menentang bunga bank karena Islam berharap terjadinya sistem ekonomi yang mengeliminasi seluruh bentuk ketidakadilan dengan memperkenalkan keadilan antara pengusaha dan pemilik modal, yaitu berbagi resiko dan berbagi hasil. ŭ ΊņĨŧ Ώ 1 ΎỲŏΉė ΞΊẂ ĤΣΔĜŧ ΔΩė ĥ ĜẃΐĨľė Έ΅ Ή ģŊΜūΕ╬ė ĥ ĜΡĜỳΉė ΎΙā ŋķā ĤΡŊĜųĨ⅝Ϋė – ĤΣẂĜΐĨį Ϋė ĤΉėŋẃΉė ŋẃħ ĥ ĜẃΐĨĴ ΐΊΉ ĤĢŧ ΕΉĜġΛ .ĤΡĜỳΉė ΖōΙ ⅜Σ⅞ĸĨΉ ĤẃĢĨ╬ė ĥ ĜΣĴ ΣħėŏĨŦΫė ∟ ĥ ĜẃΐĨľė Ίħ ╚ġ ‛ άĨŅė ŊΜį Λ ΒΏ ĤΣĴ ΣħėŏĨŦΫė Ίħ ŏŲĜΕẂ ŋķā ΞΊẂ ⅜₤ėΜħ Ĥ╤ ªΌάŦΩėΛ ĤΣΔėŏųΕΉėΛ ĤΡŊΜΚΣΉėΛ ĤΣŦΛŋΕ▀ė ŭ ŅΧė ΞΊẂΛ ªĤΣΕΡŋΉė Η╠ė ŋ⅝ ⌠ΛΧė ĤīάĬΉė ĥ ĜΔĜΡŋΉė ẀĜĢħā ΒΏ ♥ė╙Ģ΄ ♥ĜĢΔĜį ΑĜ΄ ėŌċΛ .ŊΜ⅞ΕΉė Ŵėŏ⅝ċ ΒẂ ĤΊųĸĨ╬ė ģŋĕĜ℮Ήė ┐ŏ╡ ΜΙΛ ĜΏ ΑĈġ ĤΉŊĜľė ΑΜΉΛĜ► ΝŏŅΧė ĥ ĜΔĜΡŋΉė ẀĜĢħĈġ ΠŦĈĨΉė ∟ ╚ĢỲėŏΉė ╚ΐΊŧ ╬ė -

As-Sifat Al-Khbriya) Between Denial and Proof Are a New Vision
Journal of University of Shanghai for Science and Technology ISSN: 1007-6735 Informative Qualities (As-Sifat Al-Khbriya) Between Denial And Proof Are A New Vision Assistant Professor Dr. Mohammed Mohsin Radhi University of Anbar / College of Islamic Sciences Research Summary Informative qualities(As-Sifat Al-Khbriya) between denial and proof are a new vision Assistant Professor Dr. Mohammed Mohsin Radhi University Of Anbar / College Of Islamic Sciences This is the study deals with the knowledge of what is meant by informativeattributes and the doctrines of Islamic sects. It gives views and solutions to the dispute in this matter to reach a new vision. The most prominent results are: 1. Informative qualities: are words added to God Almighty, which may have the meaning of simile and anthropomorphism, Such as hand, eye, face, soul, coming, the accessories of that include prejudice, direction, movement, transition and disappearance, and the way to prove it is what is mentioned inQuran and Sunnah. 2. The Islamic sects on this issue are divided into three schools: the firstis the doctrine of proof with analogy and anthropomorphism. The second is the doctrine of interpretation. The thirdis the doctrine of proof with deanthropomorphism and authorization. 3. Thefirst of these words in terms of adding them to the Almighty Godis not to discusstoo muchfor God Almighty has the knowledge of them. We do not say are the qualities, nor we deny it too; because the texts are not conclusive in indicating the descriptive one. The lack of realization of the proper fit is between it and God Almighty. Otherwise, it is possible to interpret the verses that included these words and interpret them according to the general context in which they are mentioned. -
