The Bride's Boon a reward for you, even when you feed your wife. [Reported by Al-Bukhari] When you feed yourself, your children, or your wife, you will have a reward for each. [Reported by Ahmad] The Reward of Maintaining one’s Children Ka'b ibn ‘Ajura said, Once a man passed by the Prophet (pbuh). When the companions of the Prophet (pbuh) noticed how patient and active he was said, they said, If done in the cause of Allah! The Prophet (pbuh) said, If he (the man) works for maintaining his young children, it is in the cause of Allah. If he works for maintaining his old parents, it is in the cause of Allah. But if he works for ostentation and conceit, it is in the cause of Satan. [Reported by Tabarani] Divine Provender comes from Allah according to ones responsibility. The more ordeals one faces the more patient he will be. [Reported by Al-Bazzar] A Miser Husband Prophetic Hadiths: "Hind, Abu Sufyan’s wife said, "O Messenger of Allah! Abu Sufyan is a stingy man. He does not. Give me what suffices me and my children except what I take without permission. The Prophet (pbuh) said, Take 101 what suffices you and your children in a kind 61 manner. [Reported by Al-Bukhari] Having Many Children Qur’anic verses: {And that which they leave behind, and of all things have We taken account in a clear Book (of evidence).} [Yasin: 12] Prophetic Hadiths: “Marry a woman who is affectionate and fertile, for I will boast over all nations concerning your number.” [Narrated by Abu Dawud] "Allah’s Messenger (pbuh) said: When a man dies, his acts come to an end, but three, recurring charity, or knowledge (by which people) benefit, or a pious son, who prays for him (for the deceased). [Reported by Muslim] Giving the Call to Prayer in the Ears of the Newborn Baby Prophetic Hadiths: "Abu Rafi' related, I saw the Prophet (pbuh) calling to prayer in the ear of Al-Hassan ibn Ali when Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her) 61 The above hadith indicates that it permissible to take what is necessary of the husband’s property. 102 .

  • The Rise of Islam As a Constitutive Revolution
    Chapter 5 Revolution in Early Islam: The Rise of Islam as a Constitutive Revolution SAÏD AMIR ARJOMAND We conceive of revolution in terms of its great social and political consequences. In a forthcoming comparative and historical study of revolutions, I contrast to the state-centered revolutions of modern times with another ideal-type of revolution which I call the ‘integrative’ revolution (see the Appendix). This ideal type of revolution – which is an aspect of all revolutions – expresses two simple ideas: revolutions 1) bring to power a previously excluded revolutionary elite, and 2) enlarge the social basis of the political regime. This makes integrative revolu- tions not just political but also ‘social revolutions.’ Integrative revolution is in turn divided into three subtypes, the two sub-types I derive from Aristotle-Pareto and Ibn Khaldun are so labeled. The ‘constitutive’ type is my own invention, of- fering the sharpest contrast to the state-centered or ‘Tocquevillian’ type in that it is the typical pattern of radical change in the political order through the enlarge- ment of political community in ‘stateless societies,’ be they of 6th century BCE Greece or 7th century CE Arabia. In addition to this structural typology, we need to come to terms with the mo- tives and goals of the revolutionaries as historical actors, and here I do what may be politically incorrect from the viewpoint of the theory community by using the term teleology, not in the strict Aristotelian sense but rather as a term denoting the directionality of revolution. Through teleology, I seek to capture the distinc- tive direction of a revolution, its intended or intentionally prefigured conse- quences.

  • In His Book, the Formative Period of Twelver Shiism, Andrew Newman Analyses Early Collections of the Traditions of Shii Imams I
    In his book, the Formative period of Twelver shiism, Andrew Newman analyses early collections of the traditions of shii imams in the period of two centuries following the twelvth imams disappearance. In particular, Newman examines al-Mahasin of al- barqi, Basair al- darajat of al-Qummi and al-Kafi fi ilm al-Din of Al-Kulayni. His main contention in the book, repeated on a number of occasions is that ``these three collections differed in both style and content to meet the appropriate needs of the imami community in Qum and Baghdad‘’, especially with the fact that the usage of ``beleagured’’ community on numerous occasions highlighting a certain psychological effect behind the hadiths narrated at the time. This review discusses Newman’s arguments as well as the style of his book, concluding that the psychological state of a sect has no bearing on what hadiths are collected by its scholars. The Holy Prophet of Islam (S), for a period of 23 years from the beginning of his prophetic mission to the moment of his death, was directly involved in the process of guidance and leadership of the people. The multifarious kinds of questions that arose for the Muslims in relation with their needs converged upon the Holy Prophet. The Prophet responded to their questions through explanations and discussions whose variety increased with the progress of Islam to the extent of enveloping all aspects of the moral, social and civic affairs of Muslims. The new society that emerged during this period was significant and important from every aspect. The Muslims who were the contemporaries of the Prophet had the advantage of personal recourse to him and chance of putting to him various questions regarding their social life.

  • Title: Assessing Apostasy, Blasphemy and Excommunication (Takfir) in Islam and Their Modern Application by States and Non-State Actors
    Title: Assessing Apostasy, Blasphemy and Excommunication (takfir) in Islam and Their Modern Application by States and Non-State Actors A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Masaki Nagata Supervised by Dr. Mohamed Elewa Badar Brunel Law School Brunel University June 2016 Abstract In certain contemporary Muslim majority states apostasy and blasphemy are not merely religious sins; they are acts which potentially have legal, or extra-legal, consequences. Although apostasy has not been criminalised in many such states, extrajudicial killings of apostates are carried out by some extremist groups and individuals. Such groups always justify these murders of fellow Muslims and non-Muslims on the grounds of apostasy and blasphemy. The concept and use of takfir (excommunication) is also a serious issue in Muslim majority states. Groups such as Daesh (also known as Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) rely on takfir to attack fellow Muslims, despite there being no legal basis in Shari’a for the use of takfir or for criminalising apostasy. Although the concept was developed by people, not God, takfir are now being used to bypass rational human judgement. Their use plays a major role in many of the religious issues confronting Muslim majority states, such as the criminalisation of apostasy and blasphemy. This thesis analyses the central issues of apostasy, blasphemy and takfir collectively, as their history and their contemporary use and misuse by extremist groups are inextricably entwined. The key finding is that the right to punish apostasy and blasphemy and to issue declarations of excommunication (takfir), all originally reserved in Islam for God only, have been appropriated by man.

The book discusses in detail the religious rulings concerning Muslim spies working for "the vicious Crusader campaign that is launched by the United States and its allies against Muslims and Islamic countries." The book contains an introduction by Ayman al-Zawahiri, Al-Qa'ida's second in command, who emphasizes the importance of the topic of the book and praises Al-Libi's "valuable, serious, scientific, and practical research on the Islamic judgment on spying." In the book, Al- Libi discusses in extensive detail all religious rulings concerning Muslim spies, emphasizing that they are "apostates" and therefore should be killed as they disclose "the shortcomings of Muslims." He also warns of their danger, saying: "One single piece of information transmitted to them, by one of their spies, is able to exasperate spirits, honor, and possessions in a way that thousands of their mobilized soldiers cannot do." The book was released and published by the Al-Fajr Media Center.

Be dutiful to your Lord, who created you from a single person (Adam), and from him created his wife (Eve), and from them both He created many men and women….” (Ch 4, v1) It is the teaching of Islam that all of creation (human kind) are one family, we are all branches of the same tree. Just as one Muslim is the brother of another Muslim, each individual on this Earth is part of a large family. From this we are made attentive to the fact that, as a Muslim we are taught to respect and be kind to all our fellow brothers and sisters. The Prophet Muhammed (peace and blessings be upon him) stated: • “Those who are merciful, Allah shows mercy to them…If you show mercy to those on the Earth, the one in the skies (Allah Almighty) will show mercy to you.” (Sunan Abu Dawood, # 4941) The reference in this Hadith of ‘to those on the Earth’ is not restricted to Human beings but all of creation, including animals. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) has in many narrations forbidden people from opressing and over burdening animals in their possession.

  • The Battle of Badr the First Decisive Battle in the History of Islam
    www.mahajjah.com THE BATTLE OF BADR THE FIRST DECISIVE BATTLE IN THE HISTORY OF ISLAM َو َل َق ْد َن َص َر ُك ُم للا ُ ِب َب ْد ٍر و َا ن ُت ْم اَ ِذل ۃ ۚ َفا ت ُقوا للا َ َل َعل ُك ْم َت ْش ُك ُر و َن ﴿۱۲۳﴾ And indeed He [Allah Ta’’ala] aided you at Badr when you were few in number. So fear him so that you may show gratitude.1 REASON OF THE BATTLE It all began with the al-’Ushayrah Invasion when a caravan belonging to Quraysh had escaped an imminent military encounter with Rasulullah salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam and his men. When their return from Syria approached, Rasulullah salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam despatched Sayyiduna Talhah ibn ‘Ubayd Allah and Sayyiduna Sa’id ibn Zayd radiya Llahu `anhuma northward to scout around for any movements of this sort. The two scouts stayed at al-Howra’ for some days until Abu Sufyan, the leader of the caravan, passed by them. The two men hurried back to Madinah and reported to Rasulullah salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam their findings. Great wealth amounting to 50 thousand dinars (gold coins) guarded by 40 men moving relatively close to Madinah constituted a tempting target for the Muslim military, and provided a potentially heavy economic, political and military strike that was bound to shake the entire structure of the Makkan polytheists. Rasulullah salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam immediately exhorted the Muslims to rush out and waylay the caravan to make up for their property and wealth they were forced to give up in Makkah.

The accusations against Shias started on the death of our Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) and thus, Shias were made the adversary in the history of Islam. As the adversary, Shias had to bear the persecution and torture of the ruling authorities and the accusations, annoyance, and hurt from people across the ages.
