    SP Publications International Journal Of English and Studies (IJOES) An International Peer-Reviewed English Journal www.ijoes.in Vol-1, Issue-4, 2019 ISSN: 2581-8333 Indexed in ________________________________________________________________ GHAZAL: JOURNEY FROM PERSIAN TO ENGLISH ______________________________________________________________________________ Dr. R.P. Singh Professor of English University of Lucknow-226007 ______________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: It is an informative paper on the construct, form, and expansion of Ghazal as a poetic form. The origin of the word ‘Ghazal' goes back to the Arabic word ‘Ghazal' meaning ‘deer' in English. The reference finds roots to the act of hunting a deer. When a hunter shoots a deer in a moonlit night in the Arabian desert, the deer getting pierced with the arrow, runs around helplessly in search of water. In this state, the throat makes the sound like "gaz - gaz". A lover, in the same way, pines for his beloved, and feels emotional bleeding; this leads to the making of Ghazal. The paper discusses various aspects of Ghazal. Key Words: Ghazal, Sher, Matla, Takhallus. The Ghazal is a Persian word referring to a form of Persian poetry. It became popular in Urdu literature later. It is, generally speaking, a form of poetic expression describing platonic love. The locale, tone, and content –almost everything around Ghazal find a lover and his unattained love as the central concern. The narrator almost knows it too well that the meeting of the lovers is unattainable, yet they keep striving till the last. This pang and desire emanate into the verses of Ghazal. The complete Ghazal comprise of Shers (couplets); most of the Ghazal has less than fifteen shers, A good Ghazal has approximately five Shers.

These are the first words with which Dowlatshah Samarqandi begins the notice he devotes to Hafez in his Tazkerat al-sho‘ara in 1486. Then he adds: ‘His excellence (fazilat) and his perfection (kamal) are endless and the art of poetry is unworthy of his rank. He is incomparable in the science of Qur’an and he is illustrious in the sciences of the exoteric (zaher) and the esoteric (baten).’1 Although Hafez died in 1389, his poetry was widely celebrated one century later, as shown by Dowlatshah’s eulogy.

Bsoul1 Overview paper Khalifa University UDC 28:341 United Arab Emirates THE ISLAMIC EPISTEME OF POLITIES DEVELOPMENT IN INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Abstract This paper illustrates the contributions of Islamic law to the development of transnational socio-political organisations that transcend racial and geopolitical fixations. Those are best enshrined in the premise of the unity of believing com- munity and humanity led to the Shari‘ah/Islamic law. Islam advocates the devel- opment and consolidation of communities. This study discusses the concept of ‘ummah’ (community of believers) according to the tradition of Prophet Muham- mad and surveys its development throughout the Islamic caliphates, sultanates, and imamates up until colonialism and modern ‘nation-state’ system. The article argues that there are ontological, epistemological, and normative differences spanning the divide between Muslim and Western worldviews especially con- cerning the development and management of their polities. Keywords: Islamic International Law/Siyar, Legal provisions, Politics, Muslim Jurists, Justice, State Introduction The Islamic religion should enhance people’s lives, while defining the limits of ‘free-living’ according to the Shari‘ah/Islamic law.2 This is derived from several aspects. The first is the origin or theoretical foundation of religion from which the conduct, behaviour, and purpose of existence are related to God and crea- tion. This is known as ‘ilm al-‘aqidah or usul al-din. The second pertains to the system, which defines the conduct of man in accordance with this ‘ilm in terms of social relations, finance and human interaction.

  • The Concept of City in Qajar Era in the Mirror of Matla Al-Shams Focusing on Mashhad
    Science Arena Publications Specialty Journal of Architecture and Construction ISSN: 2412-740X Available online at www.sciarena.com 2018, Vol, 4 (4): 40-48 The Concept of City in Qajar Era in the Mirror of Matla Al-Shams Focusing on Mashhad Mahdi Mohammadi1*, Ehsan Kakhani2 1 PhD student, Arts & Architecture Department, Yazd University, Iran, 2 PhD student, Architecture and Urban Planning Department, Shahid Beheshti University, Iran. *Corresponding Author Abstract: Matla Al-Shams by Mohammad-Hasan Khan Etemad-al-Saltana is one of the most important geographical books from Nāṣeri Era. The book contains extensive information about several cities and villages in Iran, including the 14th hegira century’s holy city of Mashhad. The present article aims at the investigation and interpretation of an image portrayed of Mashhad by Mohammad-Hasan Khan Etemad-al-Saltana in his book “Matla Al-Shams”. To do so, first of all, the importance of Mashhad from the perspective of Mohammad-Hasan Khan in the position of an author and as an individual belonging to Qajar era will be investigated based on the extant evidences. Next, the current research paper’s writer tries decoding the significations of “holy Mashhad” in “Matla Al-Shams” and distinguishing their relationship with the holy shrine of Shiites’ eighth Imam through interpretation of the proofs and materials existent in the book. Keywords: The concept of city, Mashhad, Qajar era, Iran Historical Architecture, Matla Al-Shams, Etemad-al-Saltana INTRODUCTION Accompanied by his court fellows, Naser-al-Din Shah took a trip to Khorasan in 1879. Etemad-al- Saltana who was authoring a book called “Meraat al-boldan” at the time and used to record the geographical and historical information of the various localities in Iran seized the opportunity.

    Azam Kalantar, et al.: Khorasan's great doctrine in Timurid period 18 Khorasan's great doctrine in Timurid period AZAM KALANTAR ,MOHAMMAD KARIM YOUSEFJAMALI, HOSSEIN MIR JAFARI PhD student, Department of History, Faculty of Humanities, Najaf Abad Branch,Islamic Azad University, Najaf Abad, IRAN, Address, Iran Associate Professor, Department of History, Faculty of Humanities, Najaf Abad Branch,Islamic Azad University, Najaf Abad, IRAN, Address, Iran, Professor, Department of History, Faculty of Humanities, Najaf Abad Branch,Islamic Azad University, Najaf Abad, IRAN, Address, Iran Abstract. Timurid period is one of the most turbulent and important periods in the history of Iran. Mysticism market was warm during this period due to the political and social turmoil and different doctrines had found followers and had different influence on social and political events. Great Khorasan that has long been the major focus of Sufism in Iran, in this period it was considered activity of different principle owners such as Sheykhiye, Movlavie, Mashashiyan, Hurufieh, Naqshbandiyya, Nurbakhshiye and nematollahiye. Among these were more influential Hurufieh and Naqshbandiyya in Khorasan. This series is supported some from Sunni and some from Shiie. Hurufieh follows social justice and struggle with the Timurid rulers. Government severely dealt with them. Naqshbandi doctrine was the reaction of Sunni Sufis against increase activities of Shiie Sufi doctrine. Elders of this doctrine were respected by Timurid in Khorasan. This article tries to investigate the major sects of Khorasan mysticism such as Nematollahiyein, Hurufieh and Naqshbandiyya in Timurid period. Keywords: Khorasan, Mysticism, Hurufieh, Nematollahiye, Naqshbandiyya 1 Introduction Attention of Teimur and Timurid was effective to Sufi elders and respect to them and stating belief to companions of monasteries in rare extension and popularity of Sufi thought.

  • Naqshbandi Sufi, Persian Poet
    ABD AL-RAHMAN JAMI: “NAQSHBANDI SUFI, PERSIAN POET A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Farah Fatima Golparvaran Shadchehr, M.A. The Ohio State University 2008 Approved by Professor Stephen Dale, Advisor Professor Dick Davis Professor Joseph Zeidan ____________________ Advisor Graduate Program in History Copyright by Farah Shadchehr 2008 ABSTRACT The era of the Timurids, the dynasty that ruled Transoxiana, Iran, and Afghanistan from 1370 to 1506 had a profound cultural and artistic impact on the history of Central Asia, the Ottoman Empire, and Mughal India in the early modern era. While Timurid fine art such as miniature painting has been extensively studied, the literary production of the era has not been fully explored. Abd al-Rahman Jami (817/1414- 898/1492), the most renowned poet of the Timurids, is among those Timurid poets who have not been methodically studied in Iran and the West. Although, Jami was recognized by his contemporaries as a major authority in several disciplines, such as science, philosophy, astronomy, music, art, and most important of all poetry, he has yet not been entirely acknowledged in the post Timurid era. This dissertation highlights the significant contribution of Jami, the great poet and Sufi thinker of the fifteenth century, who is regarded as the last great classical poet of Persian literature. It discusses his influence on Persian literature, his central role in the Naqshbandi Order, and his input in clarifying Ibn Arabi's thought. Jami spent most of his life in Herat, the main center for artistic ability and aptitude in the fifteenth century; the city where Jami grew up, studied, flourished and produced a variety of prose and poetry.

  • Revisiting the Canon Through the Ghazal in English
    Revisiting the Canon through the Ghazal in English Chandrani Chatterjee Milind Malshe Abstract At the dawn of English education in India the popularity of certain genres led to the adaptation, transformation and assimilation of these forms in the Indian languages. However, in this East-West encounter, not only were the European forms appropriated by the Indian writers, one of the Eastern forms, viz. the ghazal, was taken up by writers in English. This paper traces the origin of the ghazal as a distinct form, its development in the poetry of Mir (c 1723-82) and Ghalib (1797-1869) before discussing how this genre was adapted and experimented with, by some writers in English. In this process we try to address some issues like translation, adaptation and transformation and also what factors affect the composition and institution of a canon. I Ghazal as a form is supposed to have originated in Arabia in the late seventh century. 1 It is said to have developed from the nasib , which itself was an amorous prelude to the qasida (an ode). Qasida was a panegyric to the emperor or his noblemen. It has been observed that because of its comparative brevity and concentration, its thematic variety and rich suggestiveness, the ghazal soon eclipsed the qasida and became the most popular form to be introduced in India from the Persian and Arabic literary traditions: “Ghazal means literally conversation, most often between lovers. It has a strict form Translation Today Vol. 3 Nos. 1 & 2, 2006 © CIIL 2006 Chandrani Chatterjee 184 Milind Malshe bound by rules, containing from a minimum of five to a maximum of seventeen couplets.

    Islamic Manuscripts at the University of Michigan Summary of collection history The University of Michigan's first Islamic manuscript–a small nineteenth-century Koran (later numbered as Michigan Islamic Manuscript 837)–arrived in its collections in 1914, the gift of David Emil Heineman.1 No overt agenda for the acquisition of Islamic manuscripts existed at the University of Michigan before 1924. William Warner Bishop, University Librarian, discussing the library's needs in a memorandum submitted to President M. L. Burton in 1923, had noted that the university's holdings were weak in Orientalia, particularly in the Arabic language.2 In the 1920s the University of Michigan's manuscript collecting activities were particularly focused on the acquisition of Greek and Coptic manuscripts. The individual primarily responsible for this was Francis Willey Kelsey, professor of classics at the university. At this period manuscripts were being acquired in large lots from various dealers in antiquities, who encouraged peasants working in their fields or digging for fertilizer in archaeological sites in the countryside to bring them anything of interest that was found. In Cairo one of Kelsey's main contacts for the purchase of old manuscripts was Maurice Nahman,3 cashier at the Crédit Foncier Égyptien (a bank specializing in the loaning of money on Egyptian improved real estate). Nahman's antiquities business was an important sideline to his work at the bank, which brought him into contact with people from all over the country who might have access to antiquities. Kelsey had been introduced to Nahman by Charles L. Freer of Detroit, whose collection of Oriental art was to become the nucleus of the Freer Collection in Washington, D.C.
