Pocket Guide
QURAN pocket guide § Maulana Wahiduddin Khan Introduction 3 The Word of God 13 An Abiding Wonder 25 The Teachings of the Quran 51 Selections from the Quran 95 2 Introduction The Quran is the Book of God. It has been preserved in its entirety for all time to come. Although written originally in Arabic, it has been made accessible, thanks to translations, to those who have no knowledge of Arabic. While no substitute for the original, translations serve the signal purpose of spreading the word of God far beyond the Arabic-speaking peoples to a far broader spectrum of humanity. The Quran is apparently in the Arabic language, but in reality, it is in the language of nature, that is, the language in which God directly addressed all human beings at the time of Creation. This divine invocation of humanity is ever-present in the consciousness of all human beings, that is why the Quran is universally understandable—to some on a conscious plane, and to others at the subconscious level. This reality has been described in the Quran as ‘clear revelations in the hearts of those who have been given knowledge.’ This verse 3 goes on to say that ‘none deny Our revelations save the wrongdoers’ (29:49). This means that the Divine Reality, explained by the Quran on a conscious plane, pre-exists in man at the level of the subconscious. The message of the Quran is not, therefore, something which is alien to man. It is in fact a verbal expression of that same Divine Reality which is in consonance with man’s own nature and with which he is already familiar. -

Book : 15. The Qur'an. 015 : 001 : Section 130 Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr ibn Hazm that in a letter that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, sent to Amr ibn Hazm it said that no-one should touch the Qur'an unless he was pure. Malik said, "No-one should carry the Qur'an by its strap, or on a cushion, unless he is pure. If it were permissible to do so, it would also have been permissible to carry it in its cover. This is not because there is something on the hands of the one who carries it by which the Qur'an will be soiled, but because it is disapproved of for someone to carry the Qur'an without being pure out of respect for the Qur'an, and in order to honour it." Malik said, "The best thing that I have heard about this is the ayat 'None touch it except the purified.' (Sura 56 ayat 79) It ranks with the ayat in Surat Abasa (Sura 80), where Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says, 'No, it is a reminder, and whoever wishes will remember it. -
The Great Grandfather of the Prophet
The Great Grandfather of the Prophet Long ago, in the Prophet’s time, the Arab society used to be divided into different tribes. The tribes would be called “Banu so-and-so” meaning “the children of so-and-so.” The Prophet’s tribe was called Banu Hashim. Who was Hashim? Hashim was the great grandfather of the Prophet (peace be upon him). He was an extremely wealthy man, who was known for being cultured and sophisticated. Hashim wasn’t his real name. ‘Amr was his real name; Hashim was just his kunya, or nickname. How did he get the nickname “Hashim”? Hashim’s job was to keep the Haram, or the area around the Ka’bah, clean. He took care of the Ka’bah and one of his jobs included giving the pilgrims who came to visit the Ka’bah water. The Arabs were known for their hospitality and they always had someone in charge of giving pilgrims water. Hashim started a new tradition. He did not just give water, but he went above and beyond that. He served the pilgrims meals. It may not sound like much, but feeding all of these pilgrims was a big job and very expensive. The type of food that he served was a curry or a soup with baked bread mixed into it. Despite being wealthy, Hashim didn’t just tell servants to serve the food. He found much honor in this job; he would sit and break the bread with his own hands and literally prepare it himself for the guests of the Ka’bah. -
The Central Islamic Lands
77 THEME The Central Islamic 4 Lands AS we enter the twenty-first century, there are over 1 billion Muslims living in all parts of the world. They are citizens of different nations, speak different languages, and dress differently. The processes by which they became Muslims were varied, and so were the circumstances in which they went their separate ways. Yet, the Islamic community has its roots in a more unified past which unfolded roughly 1,400 years ago in the Arabian peninsula. In this chapter we are going to read about the rise of Islam and its expansion over a vast territory extending from Egypt to Afghanistan, the core area of Islamic civilisation from 600 to 1200. In these centuries, Islamic society exhibited multiple political and cultural patterns. The term Islamic is used here not only in its purely religious sense but also for the overall society and culture historically associated with Islam. In this society not everything that was happening originated directly from religion, but it took place in a society where Muslims and their faith were recognised as socially dominant. Non-Muslims always formed an integral, if subordinate, part of this society as did Jews in Christendom. Our understanding of the history of the central Islamic lands between 600 and 1200 is based on chronicles or tawarikh (which narrate events in order of time) and semi-historical works, such as biographies (sira), records of the sayings and doings of the Prophet (hadith) and commentaries on the Quran (tafsir). The material from which these works were produced was a large collection of eyewitness reports (akhbar) transmitted over a period of time either orally or on paper. -

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. -

The Spring of My Heart (QUR101) Week Nine Handout – Course Notes Exegetes of the Quran THE EARLY EXEGETES (SAHABAH) ABDULLAH IBN ‘ABBAS Hadith (to the effect of the words) : Abdullah ibn ‘Abbas stayed at the Prophet (saw)’s house overnight. The Prophet (saw) woke up for tahajjud and went to relieve himself. When he (saw) came out, he found that ibn ‘Abbas had made some arrangement for water for him to perform ablution from. Upon this he made a special supplication for him: Allahumma faq-qih-hu fid-deen wa ‘allimhut-ta’weel O Allah grant him understanding of the religion and teach him the (science of) interpretation. Incident during the khilafah of Umar (ra): Umar (ra) had a question to ask about Surah an-Nasr regarding which he asked ibn ‘Abbas (ra).

The Fate of Prisoners of War Between the Quran, Traditions of the Prophet Muhammad and Practice of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria
European Scientific Journal December 2017 edition Vol.13, No.34 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 The Fate of Prisoners of War Between the Quran, Traditions of the Prophet Muhammad and Practice of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria Rebaz R. Khdir, PhD Candidate School of Law, University of Minho, Braga-Portugal Doi: 10.19044/esj.2017.v13n34p30 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2017.v13n34p30 Abstract Humanitarian law is the law of armed conflict that has originated from the rules and costumes of the ancient religions and civilizations. Islam includes many rules that restrict war between combatants and prohibit the warfare methods cause superfluous harm. The Quran and prophet Muhammad command Muslims to release and ransom war prisoners based on their personal conditions. The Quran never encourages Muslims to enslavement neither does mention execution but Muslims often enslaved prisoners as a common phenomenon of the era and executed some few for their atrocities and dishonesty. ISIS captured many war prisoners after the commencement of its military attacks against Iraq and Syria in 2013. The group executed most of the prisoners for taking part in battle against them through shooting, beheading, hanging and burning alive. The article compares the ISIS practice with the commandments of the Quran and prophet Muhammad in respect of the fate of war prisoners. Keywords : Humanitarian law, prisoners of war, the Quran, traditions of the prophet Muhammad, ISIS Introduction Modern international humanitarian law comprises of the rules and costumes that have been enshrined and practiced by the ancient religions and civilizations. -
Religious Conflict in Early Islam: a Study of Its Causes from Qur'an Sunnah
QURANICA, International Journal of Quranic © 2014 Centre of Quranic Research (CQR), Research, Vol. 6, Issue.2, December 2014, Pp. 1-18 University of Malaya, Malaysia RELIGIOUS CONFLICT IN EARLY ISLAM: A STUDY OF ITS CAUSES FROM QUR’AN SUNNAH PERSPECTIVE)*( 1 2 S. M. Yunus Gilani & Tazul Islam ABSTRACT This paper aims to present an historical survey on the conflict between Islam and other religions. It undertakes an analytic textual reading of the concerned Quranic verses and a historical survey of the Prophet’s (pbuh) efforts to resolution of the conflict. This study finds that a multi-dimensional causes contributed to the conflict between the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and other religions. For example, Religious roots which was mainly caused by the Christians and Jews’ denial of prophecy of Muhammad (pbuh) after a clear prediction of his prophethood in their religious scriptures. However, politico-economy was another key element of this conflict in the early Islamic state in Madinah. Though this conflict had come to broad daylight in the Islamic era, had a long pre-Islamic root go back to the second and third century CE. Moreover, Jews and Christians had a genuine fear of being defeated by the new emerging Muslim power. Therefore, they had found themselves in conflict so that they could reign their hegemony over the territory. In addition, after a city state was established in Madinah, the Prophet (pbuh) found a demographic presence of Jews and their ally Quraish threatening it peace, security, stability and even assassination of head of the state. Hence, the conflict had become inevitable.
