Indeed, Allah Desires to Repel All Impurity from You, O People of the Household, and Purify You with a Thorough Purification Indeed, Allah desires to repel all impurity from you, O People of the Household, and purify you with a thorough purification. (Sôrah al-Aúzób 33:33) The most authoritative books on ¶adòth and Tafsòr (Qur'ónic exegesis), amongst both Sunnò and Shò`ah sources, cite Prophetic traditions that confirm verse 33:33 as being exclusively revealed in relation to the five who were ãcovered by the Cloakå; namely Muúammad, `Alò, F ùimah, al-¶asan, and al-¶usayn, (peace be upon them), to whom the term ãAhl al-Baytå (People of the House) is specifically attributed. For instance, refer to the following reference books: IN THE NAME OF ALLAH , (1) Aúmad ibn ¶anbal (d. 241 AH), al-Musnad , 1:331; 4:107; 6:292, THE ALL -BENEFICENT , THE ALL -MERCIFUL 304.

  • Intra-Quranic Connections in Sunni and Shi'i Tafsirs
    Intra-Quranic connections in Sunni and Shi‘i tafsirs: a meeting point or another area of contestation? Izza Rohman Faculty of Education, Universitas Muhammad iyah Prof. Dr. HAMKA (UHAMKA) Email: [email protected] Abstract This study seeks to shed light on how a celebrated interpretive approach to the Quran considered to be most objective is taken by interpreters from different theological settings. It takes a closer look at how the principle of tafsir> al-Qur’an> bi al-Qur’an> (interpretation of the Quran by the Quran) is employed by al-Shanqiti in his Ad}wa>’ al-Baya>n and al-Tabataba’i in his al-Mi>za>n, taking their interpretation of ahl al-bayt as a main case in point. Noticing how their differences in this issue can be associated with their respective Sunni and Shi‘i backgrounds, this study finds a number of areas where both modern exegetes – and other exegetes most likely – might be influenced by any creeping theological preference in their pur- suit of objectivity and openness to the text. Kajian ini bermaksud menelaah bagaimana sebuah pendekatan penafsiran al- Qur’an yang dianggap paling objektif diterapkan oleh para mufasir dari latar belakang aliran teologi yang berbeda. Bagaimana prinsip menafsirkan al-Qur’an dengan al-Qur’an diaplikasikan oleh al-Shanqiti dalam tafsirnya, Ad}wa>’ al-Bayan> , dan al-Tabataba’i dalam tafsirnya, al-Miza> n> , dilihat lebih saksama terutama dengan mengambil contoh penafsiran mereka tentang ahlulbait. Mencermati bagaimana 73 IJIMS, Indonesian Journal of Islam and Muslim Societies, Volume 3, Number 1, June 2013: 73-95 perbedaan mereka dalam menafsirkan cakupan ahlul bait bisa dikaitkan dengan latar belakang Sunni dan Syiah mereka, kajian ini menemukan sejumlah ranah di mana kedua mufasir modern ini – dan sepertinya juga mufasir yang lain – bisa saja dipengaruhi oleh kecenderungan teologis ketika mencoba menjaga objektivitas dan keterbukaan terhadap teks al-Qur’an.

Imam Hussein derives his glory from of the Messenger of Allah Muhammad Peace be upon him. In fact, I do not find much trouble in a flow of ideas which follows one idea after the other about the wonderful example in steadfastness on the right. And I am thirsty for the moment when the article will be finished to start reading it again. When I started in my writing, I did not know much about the subject, but when I read the references and resources and studied the details of Imam's life, I was surprised with many meanings that added a lot to my personality. When we talk about this great person we must mention the environment in which he grew up and the family from which he descended. They are a family of the Prophet Muhammad (Ahl Albeit), , who are distinguished by good deeds, redemption and sacrifice, the reason for their preference was their commitment to the method of God and they paid precious cost to become the word of God is the highest. َ ََّ ُ ْ َ ْ ُ ْ َ ْ َ ُ َ ْ )1( )إن َما ُيريد ُالله لُيذه َب عنك ُم َّالر ْج َس أهل ال َبْيت َو ُيط َّه َرك ْم تطه ًيرا( ِ ِ ِ ِ ِ ِ ِ ِ The Holy Prophet Muhammad has recommended all Muslims to love (Ahl Albeit) and keep them in mind.

PO BOX 3393 PORT ELIZABETH SOUTH AFRICA 2 Fayslah Kun Munazarah Note by the Translator Fayslah Kun Munazarah , first printed in 1933 CE, in the Urdu language, is a thorough rebuttal of the verdicts of kufr issued against four senior Ulama of the Deobandi School. The baseless, slanderous fatwa of kufr was presented in the book, Husam al- Haramayn of Molvi Ahmad Rida Khan Barelwi. Sufficient details about the book are given in the author’s introduction. Due to the paucity of information on the subject in the English language, many Muslims in the English-speaking world were easily swayed towards the fallacious view propounded in Husam al-Haramayn due to the vigour with which the fatwa is propagated by its English-speaking proponents and the gravity of the allegations made. The book translated here provides a balanced, level- headed, point-by-point critique of the fatwa, demonstrating with complete clarity the deception of the original accusations against the Deobandi elders and their innocence from the heresies ascribed to them.

  • WOMEN POLITICAL PARTICIPATION in the ERA of PROPHET MUHAMMAD: Study on the Hadith Transmitters of the Women Companions
    AL ALBAB Volume 6 Number 1 June 2017 WOMEN POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN THE ERA OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD: Study on the Hadith Transmitters of the Women Companions Zunly Nadia STAISPA Yogyakarta Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Most of Moslem societies define the role of woman in the purely domestic sector. Some people consider that Islam stands against women’s role in public sectors believing that it has roots in the context of the prophet’s time. This work shows that there is no prohibitation for woman to take parts in the public and social affairs including in the area of political role. It was the case that some women companions of the prophet participated in the political role including Aisyah the wife of Nabi Saw, Asma binti Abu Bakar, Ummu Athiyah, Ummu Hani’ and Rubayyi’ bint Mu’awidz. In this paper, the writer focuses on woman companion hadith transmitters who are directly wrapped up in the missionary work with the prophet. In addition, this paper also shows the relation between woman com- panion transmitter activities and their hadith transmission, under assumption that the role of woman would influence the texts of the transmitted hadiths. It is because, as a text, hadith was transmitted in the certain context and condition. Accordingly, every transmitter had different hadith transmission based on her context, status, profession, and even gender construction. Therefore, this paper discusses the woman companion transmitters who play their role in the field of politics and also their influence in their transmitted hadiths. Keywords: Politics, role of women, transmitter, hadith. INTRODUCTION Women have at least two roles regarding the roles of women i.e.

Course prerequisites: Introductory- and intermediate-level courses in Religious Studies. RSOC 154. Winter 2016. Jesus in Islam & Christianity. Syllabus. 1 | Page Course description. A prefatory comment: Too often, in my experience, Muslim-Christian dialogue, motivated by a praiseworthy and entirely understandable desire to minimize violence and destructive prejudice, tends to emphasize whatever the two religions share in common. Interfaith gatherings motivated by such concerns sometimes neglect points of substantive difference between the faiths, especially with regard to Islamic and Christian understandings of Jesus. This is regrettable, and certainly not the approach I propose to attempt as you and I undertake this course. Instead, while acknowledging certain similarities between Islam and Christianity, and giving attention to the highly important commonalities they share with Judaism (all three faiths, it should be noted, are given a special shared status in Islamic theology as al-adyan al- samawiyah, “the heavenly religions”), I nonetheless will emphasize the radical differences between Islam and Christianity in their understandings of Jesus. I do this for a specific reason. I believe that highlighting only the similarities between these traditions does a disservice to both, whereas a critical yet sympathetic comparison of Islamic and Christian Christologies allows us to appreciate the distinctive spiritual treasures available in each religion.
