Download or read book Conceptions of Justice from Earliest History to Islam written by Abbas Mirakhor and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the conceptions of justice from Zarathustra to Islam. The text explores the conceptions of justice by Zarathustra, Ancient Egypt, India, Mesopotamia, Noah, Abraham, and Moses. During the Axial Age (800-200BCE), the focus of justice is in India, China, and Greece. In the post-Axial age, the focus is on Christianity. The authors then turn to Islam, where justice is conceived as a system, which emerges if the Qur’anic rules are followed. This work concludes with the views of early Muslim thinkers and on how these societies deteriorated after the death of the Prophet. The monograph is ideal for those interested in the conception of justice through the ages, Islamic studies, political Islam, and issues of peace and justice.

Download or read book Justice in Islam written by Ramon Harvey and published by International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT). This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its roots in the Qur’an and the life of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to its branches in contemporary political and social movements, Islam has always been concerned with the question of social justice. The promise of a just order on earth has motivated both the reflections of the community of scholars and the actions of Muslims who have striven to realize it within their societies. Despite the disappointments that history has often delivered, the hope for justice remains undimmed as does the struggle to achieve it today. This concise volume focuses on some of the ways that the theme of justice is explored in emerging currents of Islamic thought. Chapters discuss new theological and ethical proposals in the light of contemporary philosophical developments; ideas of gender justice that provoke a reformist challenge to the received tradition; and regional contexts, such as Turkey, Iran and Japan, in which the question of Islam’s relationship to justice is sharpened by the particularities of history and locale. The contributions to this collection raise the prospect that if justice can be imagined more perfectly as an Islamic ideal, perhaps it can be brought into reality.
Book Synopsis The Concept of Justice in Islam by : Ghunaima Habeeb Ismail
Download or read book The Concept of Justice in Islam written by Ghunaima Habeeb Ismail and published by . This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Justice is one of the essential features of Islam. It has about considerably different responses in various comnnunities. We have discussed some of these responses and their theoretical foundations. The present study is divided into five chapters. The first chapter deals with the definition of justice in general. In view of the fact that Muslim philosophers had been influenced with Greek Philosophy, we have therefore delineated the concept of justice in Greek Philosophy. We have also discussed the meaning and significance of justice in Christianity. It has been done to clearly bring out the inverse relation between the two. Having retained the reformative, Islam has also propounded a different theory of justice which takes into account the reformative and the retributive both. The second chapter deals with the definition of justice in Islam and also describes the views on justice of the various schools of the early Islam. We have focused herein on the Khawarij, Murjia, Jabriya and Qadariyah. The third chapter deals with the justice explained in the later schools of Islamic Philosophy. We have deliberated here on the rationalistic point of view of indeterminism. Besides the Mutazilah we have also included Farabi as the representative of rationalist thinkers. It has been concluded on the discussion of orthodox Ashariyah determinism. With its representative thinkers, like, Baqilani, Al-Ghazzali, Abdu, etc. We have also discussed Shiah interpretation of justice which is an intermediary between the Mutazilah and the Ashariyah. The subsequent chapter discusses the modern Islamic philosophers who have deliberated on justice: such as, Shariati, Mutahhari and Qutb, etc. In the conclusion we have explained our point of view. The Purpose of the study is to bring out various point of views of important schools of Muslim Philosophy together and to make the assessment as to which of them has represented the basic idea of justice. The schools of Muslim Philosophy have worked either the influence of Greek philosophy or orthodox Islam. The Modern philosophers like Mutahhari and Shariati have emphasized the social significance of justice, and they have given their ideal method.
Book Synopsis The Concept of Justice in Islam by : Safraz Bacchus
Download or read book The Concept of Justice in Islam written by Safraz Bacchus and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is laid out to outline the Islamic standpoint on justice and it's high standard. This manuscript will attempt to clarify a major misconception that has gained widespread acceptance in some academic circles. The misconception is that the Muslim judge judges blindly according to a rigid set of outdated laws without giving due consideration to what is in the best interest of either the public or in upholding the rights of a person. Finally, it will seek to demonstrate how the ethical standards that govern the conduct and office of the qadi reinforces the public trust and confidence in the Islamic judicial system as a whole. Given that the Islamic judiciary does not have the powers of the sword or the purse - powers that are reserved for the executive and the legislative branches of government - respect is said to be the greatest strength of the institution itself.Islamic law requires a Muslim judge (hakim or qadi) to conform to the highest ethical standards both in their personal conduct and in issuing rulings that are just and seen to be just.

Book excerpt: Meant for the general reader, this book gives a historical expose of the Western definitions of justice - mainly economic and social justice - from Plato to the modern day and compares it with the Islamic concept of justice. He draws upon the fundamental and central concepts of the Quran to the permanence and universality of that concept. He shows that the combination of adl (justice), qist (equity) and mizan (balance) goes towards creating that notion in comparison to the shifting definition of the Western conception which depends on which ideology is dominant.

This book was released on 2022-04 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Justice is one of the four cardinal values and virtues. It is treated as one of the primary values and Ethico-Socio-Political-Legal and religious concepts. It is a highly fascinating and bewildering concept and has been variously discussed by the philosophers. Legal experts and socio-religious thinkers and interpreters of the religious texts have been playing a very crucial and critical role in the civilizational development of man. In the present work, various dimensions of the meanings and applications of justice have been discussed. Man is profoundly and inextricably rooted in history. His history itself is rooted in pre-history. It will take large-scale investigations to somewhat bring out our rootedness in history and pre-history. Whatever empirical historical investigations have been available to us, reveal that human history is red in tooth and claw. Historical investigations inform us about insurmountable and excruciating amounts of suffering negotiated by human beings. They have negotiated incalculable oppression, suppression, exploitation and injustice. Countless people have been enslaved across history and globe. Human beings have undergone a long-drown-out biological and cultural evolution. There are many theories with regard to the origin and development of man. All these theoretical perspectives advance their justificatory grounds which have been analyzed and criticized on genuine grounds by various thinkers. These theoretical perspectives are neither empirically verifiable nor mathematically demonstrable. They are not statements of fact but interpretative formulations. We can only appreciate the merits and demerits of these large-scale theological, cosmological and anthropological perspectives. However, scientists, paleontologists, anthropologists and historians have assembled vast data, powerfully indicating that man has negotiated millions of years of biological and cultural evolution. We do not have any definite accounts of the times and climes of man's post-evolutionary phase. However, what can be readily admitted is that his post-evolutionary phase of the struggle for existence must have been as indomitable as his pre-evolutionary biological evolution. The ancient human beings survived on wild fruits, leaves, vegetables, hunting, and fishing. This must,

Book Synopsis Islam and the Rule of Justice by : Lawrence Rosen
Download or read book Islam and the Rule of Justice written by Lawrence Rosen and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the West, we tend to think of Islamic law as an arcane and rigid legal system, bound by formulaic texts yet suffused by unfettered discretion. While judges may indeed refer to passages in the classical texts or have recourse to their own orientations, images of binding doctrine and unbounded choice do not reflect the full reality of the Islamic law in its everyday practice. Whether in the Arabic-speaking world, the Muslim portions of South and Southeast Asia, or the countries to which many Muslims have migrated, Islamic law works is readily misunderstood if the local cultures in which it is embedded are not taken into account. With Islam and the Rule of Justice, Lawrence Rosen analyzes a number of these misperceptions. Drawing on specific cases, he explores the application of Islamic law to the treatment of women (who win most of their cases), the relations between Muslims and Jews (which frequently involve close personal and financial ties), and the structure of widespread corruption (which played a key role in prompting the Arab Spring). From these case studie the role of informal mechanisms in the resolution of local disputes. The author also provides a close reading of the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui, who was charged in an American court with helping to carry out the 9/11 attacks, using insights into how Islamic justice works to explain the defendant’s actions during the trial. The book closes with an examination of how Islamic cultural concepts may come to bear on the constitutional structure and legal reforms many Muslim countries have been undertaking.
Book Synopsis A Model for Islamic Development by : Shafiullah Jan
Download or read book A Model for Islamic Development written by Shafiullah Jan and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to explore and analyse Islamic Moral Economy (IME) as an alternative economic and social system to capitalism and socialism. It proposes a new model of Islamic development, integrating global development within an Islamic framework of spiritual development. It is argued that the failure of Muslim countries to provide basic necessities and an environment free of oppression and injustice can be overcome with this authentic Islamic development framework. In addition, this book can be an important study to identify the theological, political, social and economic boundaries for changing the society to produce IME oriented developmentalism.

Download or read book Philosophy of Social Justice in Islam written by Shajahan H. B and published by Sobia. This book was released on 2022-12-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of 'social justice' comes within the broader concept, 'justice', and can hardly be understood detached from the latter. It is accepted as an unchallengeable fact that a sense of justice is one of the very important attributes for the healthy functioning of both individuals as well as societies. Objects of justice occupy a very broad range and there is a wide umbrella above them. We often, make judgments on people and their deeds on the basis of our conception of justice or injustice. Therefore, to get at least a basic idea of what justice is, one has to look at the dichotomy, the binary oppositions of 'just' and 'unjust' or 'justice' and 'injustice.' In such situations it will be fruitful to examine the contexts that we generally characterise as 'unjust'. Robbery, criminal acts against fellow beings, discrimination in employment on the grounds of colour or sex, unequal distribution of profits among the individuals of a collective group, or an inequitable supply of food which ends up in the sumptuous eating by one group and the starvation of another group may be instances of injustice. Then, what can be taken as justice? Justice has a great deal
