    When the audience is known to be secretly skeptical of the reality that is being impressed upon them, we have been ready to appreciate their tendency to pounce upon trifling flaws as a sign that the whole show is false [Erving Goffman, The Presentation of Self (New York: Anchor Press, 1959), p. 51]. I - v - Give Me Seventeen Dollars for This Hat. Taxed by the forces besetting Damascus, the Sultan accedes to familial intrigue. The noted medical talk show host, Mr. Ng, surges to stage a live remote into the 13 th century. The various tools at his command are listed. The participants gather: the Idiopath of Jerusalem, the chorus, the Emperor Frederick II, al-Kamil, Sultan of Egypt, and the Rabbi Ben ‘tov Shapiro. A debate over the independence of scientific thought, in which the Idiopath disputes the Frankish titles in Palestine, ensues. Al-Kamil also cites numerous correspondences contesting these claims. ~ page 63 ~ People showing up for a diagnosis of a sample of their urine to the physician Constantine the African.* Constantine Act I, Signature v - (1) Latin Constantinus Africanus Born c. 1020, Carthage or Sicily Died 1087, monastery of Monte Cassino, near Cassino, Principality of Benevento Medieval medical scholar.

  • Antarah (Antar) Ibn Shaddad - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Antarah (Antar) Ibn Shaddad - poems - Publication Date: 2004 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 1 Antarah (Antar) Ibn Shaddad(525 - 615) 'Antarah Ibn Shaddad al-'Absi was a pre-Islamic Arabian hero and poet (525- 608) famous both for his poetry and his adventurous life. What many consider his best or chief poem is contained in the Mu'allaqat. The account of his life forms the basis of a long and extravagant romance. <b>Biography</b> Antarah was born in Najd (northern Saudi Arabia). He was the son of Shaddad, a well-respected member of the Arabian tribe of Banu Abs, his mother was named Zabibah, an Ethiopian woman, whom Shaddad had enslaved after a tribal war. The tribe neglected Antara at first, and he grew up in servitude. Although it was fairly obvious that Shaddad was his father. He was considered one of the "Arab crows" (Al-aghribah Al-'Arab) because of his jet black complexion. Antara gained attention and respect for himself by his remarkable personal qualities and courage in battle, excelling as an accomplished poet and a mighty warrior. He earned his freedom after one tribe invaded Banu Abs, so his father said to Him: "Antara fight with the warriors". Then he looked at his father in resentment and said: "The slave doesn't know how to invade or how to defend, but the slave is only good for milking goats and serving his masters". Then his father said: "Defend your tribe and you are free", then Antarah fought and expelled the invading tribes.

    16 Mention of the Birth of the Messenger of God 4► There related to us Ibn al-Muthanna-Wahb b. Jarir-his father, who said: I heard Muhammad b. Ishaq-al-Muttalib b. `Abdallah b. Qays b. Makhramah-his father-his grandfather, who said: (967) The Messenger of God and myself were born in the Year of the Elephant. He related: `Uthman b. `Affan asked Qubath b. Ashyam, a mem- ber of the Banu 'Amr b. Layth, "Who is the greater in build (akbar), you or the Messenger of God?" He replied, "The Messenger of God is greater in build than I, although I preceded him in date of birth (ana aqdam minhu fi al-mildd); I saw the elephant's dung, dark colored and reduced to a powdery form, one year after the beast's appearance. I also saw Umayyah b. `Abd Shams as a very old man being led around by his slave." His son said, "0 Qubath, you have the best knowledge; what do you say?" There related to us Ibn Humayd-Salamah-Ibn Ishaq-al- Muttalib b. 'Abdallah b. Qays b. Makhramah-his father-his grandfather Qays b. Makhramah, who said: The Messenger of God and myself were born in the Year of the Elephant, and we were coevals of each other. There was narrated to me a narrative going back to Hisham b. Muhammad, who said: `Abdallah b. `Abd al-Muttalib, the Mes- senger of God's father, was born in the twenty-fourth year of Kisra Anusharwan's period of power, and the Messenger of God was born in the forty-second year of his period of power.642 642.

  • Poverty and Charity in the Rise of Islam Michael Bonner
    Chapter One Poverty and Charity in the Rise of Islam Michael Bonner The “Return of Wealth” Each generation of Muslims in the Middle East has used charitable practices to alleviate suffering and to maintain balance and order in society. At the same time, a set of concepts clustering around poverty and charity have remained essential el- ements for understanding and expressing the norms that have governed much of Middle Eastern life. Poverty and charity thus were, and to some extent still are, focal points and ways of understanding for Muslims as they have thought about the creation and distribution of wealth and as they have established and sustained a wide variety of institutions. One element of what we might call the Islamic “economy of poverty”1 has to do with the concept of ‘return.’ Historical narratives regarding the earliest period of Islam inform us that as the Prophet Muhammad sent out his administrators of the zakat (obligatory alms) for the nascent Islamic polity, he instructed them to “take the possessions (amwal) of the rich and return them to the poor”; or to in- form the donors that “God has laid the obligation of alms (sadaqa) on their possessions, to be taken from the rich among them and returned to the poor”;2 and similar formulations. (The Arabic words for this are usually radd and its derivatives, less often ruju‘ and other words). Similarly, in the hadith (narrative accounts of say- ings and deeds ascribed to the Prophet),3 return often means “give,” as in: “Return (i.e., give to) the beggar, even if it is only the head of a sandgrouse.”4 It can also be argued, on the basis of the hadith, that as wealth returns from the rich to the poor it must never return from the rich to the rich.

  • Socio-Political and Religious Implications of the Islamic Mission of the Prophet Muhammad (Saw.) During His Makkan Phase
    SOCIO-POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS IMPLICATIONS OF THE ISLAMIC MISSION OF THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SAW.) DURING HIS MAKKAN PHASE SUMMARY Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Bottor of pi)tlo£fopI)2> IN SUNNI THEOLOGY BY ISRAR AHMAD KHAN Under the supervision of Dr. IQBAL HASAN KHAN DEPARTMENT OF SUNNI THEOLOGY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1990 IN THE NAMK OF ALT.AH^ THE BENSFICEKT, THE MERCIFUL INTRODUCTION The Prophet Muharrcnad (S.A.W.) emigrated to Madinah in the year 622 C.E. He established a full-fledged Islamic society and State there. This is an irrefutable event of human history. A majority of orientalists is of the view that this Madani phase of the Prophet (S.A.W.) was totally a political phase having :io connection with his previous Da'wah in Makkah before Hijrah, They argue that the Kakki period of the Prophet experienced religious and spiritual preaching while the Haoani period of ten years was dominated by political activities. They also allege that the Prophet was simply a reformer in Makkah but a political and military leader in Madinah. The truth is that most of the writings of the western scholars are parts of the Zionists * design against Islam and Muslims. Sirah books authored by orienta- lists served well the Zionism. They influenced tte Muslim minds also to a very great extent. Many a Muslim scholars to say nothing of laymen* believe that the organization of government and state after Hijrah was not a part of the Prophet's mission but it was a God-gifted reward for the steadfastness of the Prophet and his follwers on Islamic beliefs and deeds in Makkah.

  • Palestinian Tribes, Clans, and Notable Families by Glenn E
    Palestinian Tribes, Clans, and Notable Families by Glenn E. Robinson Strategic Insights is a bi-monthly electronic journal produced by the Center for Contemporary Conflict at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. The views expressed here are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of NPS, the Department of Defense, or the U.S. Government. Editor’s Note: In recognition of the important (and largely unanticipated) role Iraqi tribes played during the U.S. occupation of Iraq, the USG brought a number of country experts to Washington in July 2008 to comment on the significance of tribes, clans and other extended familial units in the Middle East. The following is the paper presented at that conference by Glenn E. Robinson on Palestinian case. Introduction Palestinian society in the West Bank and Gaza Strip is characterized by three types of clan-like familial structures: tribes, clans, and notable families. While all three share similar extended familial attributes, behavioral obligations (especially on males), informal networks, and honor- shame cultural systems, they are also quite distinct in their origins and continuing importance. Tribes Of the three clan-like structures in Palestinian society, actual tribes are the least politically and socially important. Here, tribes refer to descendents of nomadic and semi-nomadic Bedouin populations. Only a tiny handful of Palestinian tribes are currently still semi-nomadic. About 15 percent of the Palestinian population is of tribal origin—25 percent in the Gaza Strip, much less in the West Bank—with the large majority of the Palestinian population derived from sedentary (peasant) roots.
