Download or read book Islam Translated written by Ronit Ricci and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spread of Islam eastward into South and Southeast Asia was one of the most significant cultural shifts in world history. As it expanded into these regions, Islam was received by cultures vastly different from those in the Middle East, incorporating them into a diverse global community that stretched from India to the Philippines. In Islam Translated, Ronit Ricci uses the Book of One Thousand Questions—from its Arabic original to its adaptations into the Javanese, Malay, and Tamil languages between the sixteenth and twentieth centuries—as a means to consider connections that linked Muslims across divides of distance and culture. Examining the circulation of this Islamic text and its varied literary forms, Ricci explores how processes of literary translation and religious conversion were historically interconnected forms of globalization, mutually dependent, and creatively reformulated within societies making the transition to Islam.

Book excerpt: This is the first translation of the Quran by an American woman. It is a universal and inclusive translation with the hope that Islam will be better understood in the West.

Book Synopsis Queer in Translation by : Evren Savci
Download or read book Queer in Translation written by Evren Savci and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Queer in Translation, Evren Savcı analyzes the travel and translation of Western LGBT political terminology to Turkey in order to illuminate how sexual politics have unfolded under Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's AKP government. Under the AKP's neoliberal Islamic regime, Savcı shows, there has been a stark shift from a politics of multicultural inclusion to one of securitized authoritarianism. Drawing from ethnographic work with queer activist groups to understand how discourses of sexuality travel and are taken up in political discourse, Savcı traces the intersection of queerness, Islam, and neoliberal governance within new and complex regimes of morality. Savcı turns to translation as a queer methodology to think Islam and neoliberalism together and to evade the limiting binaries of traditional/modern, authentic/colonial, global/local, and East/West—thereby opening up ways of understanding the social movements and political discourse that coalesce around sexual liberation in ways that do justice to the complexities both of what circulates under the signifier Islam and of sexual political movements in Muslim-majority countries.

Book Synopsis Holy Bible The Chrislam Muslim Translation of the Book of Mark by : Dan Plouff
Download or read book Holy Bible The Chrislam Muslim Translation of the Book of Mark written by Dan Plouff and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-05-04 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction Blurb: A lot of people are confused about the differences between the Jesus of the KJV Bible, and the Jesus of the Quran of Islam. Christians oftentimes are so ignorant of Islam, and Mormonism, that they argue that the Quran, or Book of Mormon, can't be true if they contradict the KJV Bible, because they don't understand that the Quran says that the Bible was altered by copyist transcribers onto decaying scrolls repeatedly like the most credible historians and the NIV Bible itself says as well, while Joseph Smith said the Bible was mistranslated if it disagrees with Mormonism. This book explains the differences between the Quran and KJV Bible, and then it translates the book of Mark in the KJV Bible to instead be translated to say what the Quran says the gospel of Jesus originally said, while this book also reveals other evidence for why the Quran's version of Jesus could be possible. This book also reveals how 100% non-violent feminist Quranism Quran-only-Islam versions of the Quran are possible: like a Protestant Christian translation of the Quran, a Buddhist Quran, a Baha'i Quran, a Suffi Quran, a Yazdanism Quran, a Yarsanism Quran, a Gnostic Quran, a Scientology Quran like the Scientology Nation of Islam, a scientific Quran, an atheist Quran, a Deist Quran, a Pagan Quran, a Catholic Quran, a Freemason Quran, a monotheistic Hindu Quran, or other possible translations of the Quran. If the unscientific debunked untrustworthy Hadith like Bukhari are self-contradictory, contradict the Quran, and if each unscientific English Quran version contradicts itself in English, then this proves that new translations of the Quran, in a Quranist Quran-only-Islam, are possible. This book bridges the gap between Islam and Christianity, forming Chrislam as a stronger philosophical force in the world as a religion that is historically possible based on many different types of arguments. For comedic purposes the following sentence is used. Welcome to: the new world order, the forging of a one world religion from out of all of the world's major religions, the signing of the 7th age peace covenant by someone born with six letters in each of their three names whose last name is similar to that of President Obama's former campaign manager, a seven year peace treaty that will be signed every seven years by people with six letters in each of their three names on social media, the beginning of moving towards a United Nations one world government, and a big Illuminati sun eye of enlightenment that might actually be what is on the cover of this book hidden in plain sight instead of a bottomless pit of hellfire being what is actually on this book's cover. Conspiracy theories are very silly. Gandhi, and Baha'i, are some of the most famous versions of Chrislam that have emerged in the past. Gandhi said he was a Christian, a Muslim, a Hindu, and a Jew in the award winning Gandhi movie, and you can also listen to his audio books on Audible, while Baha'i audio books explain how Chrislam is possible as well. Baha'i also explains that the Mahdi could have already come, and that the Islamic prophesied apocalypse already could have happened, and was misunderstood in the metaphorical self-contradictory inaccurate Hadith, and mistranslated Quran, while Quranism eliminates the Hadith entirely so that the misinterpreted Quran could be translated in many 100% non-violent mystical Suffi, or Yazdanism, ways. Large portions of whole countries in Africa full of millions of people are practicing Chrislam today as a major world religion, while many major churches across the USA have both a Quran, and a Bible, in their churches, the same as in many Freemason temples of interfaith dialogue of peaceful Chrislam. If Quranism is true then there could be no Dajjal so there is nothing to fear?
Book Synopsis The Politics of Writing Islam by : Mahmut Mutman
Download or read book The Politics of Writing Islam written by Mahmut Mutman and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Politics of Writing Islam provides a much-needed critique of existing forms of studying, writing and representing Islam in the West. Through critiquing ethnographic, literary, critical, psychoanalytic and theological discourses, the author reveals the problematic underlying cultural and theoretical presuppositions. Mutman demonstrates how their approach reflects the socially, politically and economically unequal relationship between the West and Islam. While offering a critical insight into concepts such as writing, power, post-colonialism, difference and otherness on a theoretical level, Mutman reveals a different perspective on Islam by emphasizing its living, everyday and embodied aspects in dynamic relation with the outside world - in contrast to the stereotyped authoritarian and backward religion characterized by an omnipotent God. Throughout, Mutman develops an approach to culture as an embodied, everyday, living and ever changing practice. He argues that Islam should be perceived precisely in this way, that is, as an open, heterogeneous, interpretive, multiple and worldly belief system within the Abrahamic tradition of ethical monotheism, and as one that is contested within as well as outside its 'own' culture.
Book Synopsis Islam and the Everyday World by : Sohrab Behdad
Download or read book Islam and the Everyday World written by Sohrab Behdad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a new examination of how Shari’a law affects public policy both theoretically and in practice, across a wide range of public policy areas, including for example human rights and family law. The process by which public policy is decided - through elections, debates, political processes, and political discourse - has an additional dimension in the Islamic world. This is because Shari'a (divine law) has a great deal to say on many mundane matters of everyday life and must be taken into account in matters of public policy. In addition, matters are complicated further by the fact that there are differing interpretations of the Shari'a and how it should be applied to contemporary social issues. Written by leading experts in their field, this is the first comprehensive single volume analysis of Islam and public policy in the English language and offers further understanding of Islam and its wider social and political implications.
Book Synopsis Judaism, Christianity, and Islam: The Classical Texts and Their Interpretation, Volume II by : F. E. Peters
Download or read book Judaism, Christianity, and Islam: The Classical Texts and Their Interpretation, Volume II written by F. E. Peters and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1990-08-15 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: F.E. Peters has taken the basic texts of the three related--and competitive--religious systems we call Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and has juxtaposed them in a topical and parallel arrangement according to the issues that most concerned all these "children of Abraham." Through these extensive passages, and the author's connective commentary, the three traditions are shown with their similarities sometimes startlingly underlined and their well-known differences now more profoundly exposed. What emerges from this ambitious work is a panorama of belief, practice, and sensibility that will broaden our understanding of our religious and political roots in a past that is, by these communities' definition, still the present. Throughout the work we hear an amazing variety of voices, some familiar, some not, all of them central to the primary and secondary canons of their own tradition: alongside the Scriptural voice of God are the words of theologians, priests, visionaries, lawyers, rulers and the ruled. -- From publisher description.

Book Synopsis Ethics of War and Peace in Iran and Shi'i Islam by : Mohammed Jafar Amir Mahallati
Download or read book Ethics of War and Peace in Iran and Shi'i Islam written by Mohammed Jafar Amir Mahallati and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly four decades after a revolution, experiencing one of the longest wars in contemporary history, facing political and ideological threats by regional radicals such as ISIS and the Taliban, and having succeeded in negotiations with six world powers over her nuclear program, Iran appears as an experienced Muslim country seeking to build bridges with its Sunni neighbours as well as with the West. Ethics of War and Peace in Iran and Shi’i Islam explores the wide spectrum of theoretical approaches and practical attitudes concerning the justifications, causes and conduct of war in Iranian-Shi‘i culture. By examining primary and secondary sources, and investigating longer lasting factors and questions over circumstantial ones, Mohammed Jafar Amir Mahallati seeks to understand modern Iranian responses to war and peace. His work is the first in its field to look into the ethics of war and peace in Iran and Shi'i Islam. It provides a prism through which the binary source of the Iranian national and religious identity informs Iranian response to modernity. By doing so, the author reveals that a syncretic and civilization-conscious soul in modern Iran is re-emerging.
