Quran Translations In The Eastern Bloc And Beyond

de Elvira Kulieva

~~7,49€~~ 6,74€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book offers the first comprehensive exploration of Qur’an translations across the diverse landscapes of the former Eastern Bloc, from Uzbekistan to the German Democratic Republic. With a focus on how Islamic texts have been shaped by state policies, ideological shifts, and religious identities, it traces connections between these regions and the wider world, including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and China. This volume draws on perspectives from both Sunni and Shia traditions, as well as contributions by non-Muslim scholars. Through archival research and close textual analysis, the contributors demonstrate how translations of the Qur’an have served not only as religious texts but also as reflections of profound transformations in national and religious identities in communist and post-communist societies.  Qur’an translations have gained prominence within the modern Muslim publishing world, and their analysis reveals a dynamic interplay between local politics and global Islamic discourse. They have become symbols of religious resurgence, cultural renewal, and intellectual exchange—but also objects of persecution and contestation. Based on multilingual sources, this collection is an essential resource for understanding Qur’an translations as a significant scholarly and cultural phenomenon in the modern era.

Role Of The Copts In The National Movement In Egypt Until The 1919 Revolution

de Kathrin Nina Wiedl

18,27€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Islamic Studies, grade: 1,3, Ben Gurion University (Middle East Institute), course: Religious and Ethnic Minorities/ Communities in the Modern Middle East, language: English, abstract: During the 1919 revolution, under the slogan Egypt for Egyptians", the Copts fought hand in hand with their Muslim brothers for national independence of Egypt from Britain. The banner of the revolution was a cross within a crescent, the ancient incompatibility of Christianity and Islam seemed to be abolished. Only one decade earlier this unity seemed impossible, after the assassination of the Copt Prime Minister Butrus Ghali, the mob in the streets of Cairo had been praising the murder with slogans, such as: Wasrani (the name of the killer), Wasrani, who killed the nasrani (Christian) . And the Coptic newspaper Al-Watan had stated in 1908 that The Copts are the true Egyptians and the Islamic conquest of Egypt was oppressive . The role of the Copts in the national movement is as complex and ambiguous as the national movement itself. We have to weight and consider various factors together in order to understand the different roles of the Copts in the movement during this period. We also have to differentiate between Coptic Clerks, fellahin and urban Copts as well as between the Muslim mob and the Muslim leaders of the national movement, latter often influenced by ideas of western enlightenment. This paper will examine the factors that determined the role of the Coptic minority in the Muslim-dominated national movement between its emergence in 1879 and the 1919 revolution from different perspectives. This includes a discussion of the role of the British policy, the question of social integration and juridical equality/ exclusion as a distinguished religious community from the (Muslim) majority, the degree of Islamisation or secularisation of the national movement and the role of sectarian strife between Muslims and Copts, mainly incited by the British policy of divide and rule . Further influences discussed in this paper are the fear of the Copts to be persecuted or isolated if they don t participate in the movement and the chances of the movement to succeed.

Islamic Banking System - Not Conductive To The Start-Up Of Young, Innovative Business Firms

de Kathrin Nina Wiedl

18,27€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Islamic Studies, grade: 1,3, Ben Gurion University (Middle East Institute), course: Middle East Economics, language: English, abstract: The Islamic banking system is a relatively young institution that gains influence not only in the Islamic world but also in non-Muslim countries with big Muslim communities. The first Islamic bank, Dubai Islamic Bank, was erected in 1975; today about 265 Islamic finance institutions operate in more than 70 countries, and their assets have increased more than 40-fold since 1982 to exceed $230 billion. More and more western banks erect Islamic branches; the first was Citibank in 1996. This paper discusses the influence of an Islamic banking system on the start-up of young, innovative businesses. A negative influence would hinder these businesses to develop if not counterbalanced by other measures like state involvement. In non-Muslim countries it would constrain religious Muslims from participating in the contemporary economical changes, determined by an opening-up of markets and privatization, which requires the start-up of new businesses. The Islamic banking system operates according to Islamic law; hence several Islamic restrictions, the most important is the prohibition of riba (=interest), limit its freedom to develop suitable financing instruments for the support of young, innovative businesses. These restrictions enlarge the risk of the bank especially when financing these businesses, so the bank either avoids these businesses or tries to bend the Islamic law and operates de facto like a conventional bank. In this case, however, the bank is facing problems with the Religious Supervisory Board, an integral part of every Islamic bank, which will stop the bank from deriving from the Islamic law (shari a). After discussing these determinants, I will discuss the existing interest-free financing instruments of Islamic Banking suitable for the start-up of young, innovative enterprises. On the example of the PLS-concepts musharaka and mudaraba, I will analyse the factors that make these financing concepts not attractive for banks, especially when financing young, innovative business. On the example of the Mark-up activities murabaha (Trade Financing) and ijara/ijara al-waktina (Leasing) I will analyse, why these concepts are only suitable for financing very special cases of young businesses and are not a suitable alternative to Western banking concepts for the majority of young entrepreneurs. Finally I will show ideas how to improve the system without violating Islamic law, but also discuss the limits of the Islamic banking system.

Islamic Movements In Uzbekistan: Who Is Hizb-Ut-Tahrir?

de Franco Burgio

18,25€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Islamic Studies, grade: 17 von 20, Vrije University Brussel, language: English, abstract: Islamic movements have become a crucial political issue in Uzbekistan. Despite having taken some transitional democratic measures (opposition parties were granted legal status, an ombudsman was appointed, etc.), and even though President Karimov had shown an early interest in Western (and in particular European) institutional systems, it seems that over the past five years the democratic process in Uzbekistan has taken a step back to practices inherited from Soviet times. Much of the state's repressive apparatus and many of the its negative economic policies have been attributed to the need to fight against Islamic extremist. The most prominent Islamic groups in Uzbekistan are the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) and Hizb ut-Tahrir (HuT). After the IMU infrastructure and capacity was destroyed during the U.S.- led military campaign in Afghanistan in 2001 its role in challenging the regime of President Karimov's regime states has been taken over by the non-violent radical group Hizb ut-Tahrir. Unlike the IMU, the HuT is a true transnational organization that consists of semiindependent branches, only some of which are in Central Asia. In Central Asia, it has been most active in Uzbekistan. The purpose and the limit of this paper is to give an overview of the historical background, the ideology, the organisational structures and the aims of the HuT. Special attention will be paid to its political methodology and its attitude towards violence, which is essential to understand and assess the role of Islamic movements such as HuT Uzbekistan. Due to the government s crackdown of the party, state propaganda, conflicting media reports lead by internal and external interest groups and the parties own propaganda agenda it is very difficult to find reliable information about the parties involvement in the region. However, the International Crisis Group (ICG) is the trustworthiest source in this aspect since it has a regular and extended coverage of the area and its political situation with a special focus on the Islamic movements. In addition, they have on the spot teams with direct contact to locals which gives them additional credibility. The papers statements regarding the party s activities in Uzbekistan are thus mostly based on ICG report about HuT in Central Asia.

Saudi Arabia is known as a country full of wealth with many famous tourist attractions, such as the Burj Khalifa, where guest workers can find work and where the kingdom through its rulers leaves a highly regarded presentative impression. But the image of the oppressed woman who strives for equality and who longs for justice for women can also be recognized. Saudi Arabiais a country where the value of women and their equal rights is still far underdeveloped. But this image may change.

de Linda Hewitt

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Orientalism / Sinology - Islamic Studies, grade: 1,5, Lund University (Middle Eastern Studies), language: English, abstract: This thesis examines Isma?ili individuals' "lived religion"through personal views on religious values combined with daily practices in German society. Since a Eurocentric view on Islam often fails to recognize the complexities of Muslim communities while emphasizing the Muslim faith as incompatible with "modernity", the current study of the Isma?ili branch serves as an example of Muslim practices that adapt and adjust its divine principles to a modern and secular society while maintain its unique religious identity. Important values of everyday life are observed in connection to Ulrich Beck s and Anthony Gidden s "reflexive modernity" theory as a process that encompasses old and new traditions while adapting ambiguous and pluralist forms of contemporary societies. This thesis begins with a depiction of the historical background describing Isma?ili religious principles in order to grasp a general understanding of this specific community. Chapter three discusses significant literature relating to the research topic, examining publications about the Isma?ili discourse and the Aga Khan s ideology. Furthermore the author investigates ethnographic research about Isma?ili communities living in European and Canadian societies, as a form of comparative literature. Chapter four discusses theories of modernity, late modernity and post-modernity in relation to pluralism thoughts that are relevant in the study of "progressive Muslims" and "modern" Islamic approaches. Subsequently, chapter five illustrates the methodological considerations serving this study and theapproach of semi-structured life-history interviews as a narrative research design. The study concludes with the findings and analysis sections in chapter six and seven which focus on main values of the studied narratives and their perception of modernity in connection to the chosen theoretical framework.

Not 'Completely' Divorced - Muslim Women In Australia Navigating Muslim Family Laws

de Anisa Buckley

19,63€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Within Muslim communities in Australia, there is great diversity in Islamic practice and religiosity. When it comes to marriage and divorce, however, many Muslims still wish to observe religious procedures alongside civil ones, and while marriage is relatively straightforward, divorce raises more complications. The situation of women in ''limping'' marriages in particular has raised debates among Muslims and the Australian public regarding the autonomy of Muslim women and the function of community family law processes. Based upon in-depth research with divorced Muslim women, community leaders and local religious authorities, Buckley reveals the complexities facing Muslim women in negotiating family expectations, cultural norms and traditional Islamic laws. Through their stories and experiences, the Muslim women in this book demonstrate how they are able to navigate the intricacies of religious and civil processes and in so doing, are reformulating what a ''complete'' divorce looks like.
