Book Synopsis The Rules of I'tikaf by : Maulana Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani
Download or read book The Rules of I'tikaf written by Maulana Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani and published by Dar UL Thaqafah. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'tikâf is one of the beautiful forms of worship prescribed by the Sharî'ah, and practised by Muslims all over the world, especially in the Holy month of Ramadhân. The Sharî'ah has laid down specific rules and procedure for I'tikâf which are discussed in detail in books of Fiqh [Law]. Unfortunately, experience shows that few people are fully aware of these rules. Each year, hundreds of Muslims have the honour of performing I'tikâf but, due to this unawareness, their practice does not always conform to the prescribed procedure. Friends, therefore, suggested that I write a booklet in Urdu on the subject for the benefit of the ordinary Muslim who intends to perform I'tikâf, stating therein essential principles in a simple, clear and concise manner. I, accordingly, commenced the writing of this book in the state of I'tikâf itself, and thereafter by the Fadl of ALLÂH completed it. By the grace of ALLÂH Almighty this humble effort was received with much favour and widely acknowledged by the Muslims of Pakistan. The need for an English translation, for the benefit of English readers, was then expressed by some people. I therefore deem it a privilege that my learned brother Mr. Muhammad Shu'aib Omar undertook this responsibility, and translated the booklet into English with ability and competence. I have read the translation, and have found that he, in the course of his work, has taken all the care and precaution necessary for the translation of religious books. May ALLÂH bless him with the best of rewards in the Hereafter and honour him with strength and tawfiq to carry out similar works in the service of Islâm. Finally, I request the readers of the booklet to remember me and the learned translator in their prayers during I'tikâf. Muhammad Taqi Usmani

Download or read book Itikaf written by Saleem Bhimji and published by Islamic Publishing House. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'tikaf is one of the most unique acts of worship in Islam. In this spiritual sojourn, a believer secludes oneself in the House of Allah - a Masjid - to engage in worship, contemplation, and reflection on the self. From an Islamic perspective, there are no restrictions on worshipping Allah, and an individual can supplicate to Him anytime and anywhere one's heart desires. However, there are certain times and places in which one can develop a better connection to the Almighty Creator. Sometimes, a person yearns to be alone, completely isolated from everyone. In such moments of desiring solitude, one may find it unbearable to be around even their closest friends, and may need to withdraw from their loved ones - seeking to be alone with their own thoughts and reflections. This is where I'tikaf comes into the picture: Not only is it a spiritual retreat, but it is a break from the temporal world and all of its allure - the hectic work schedule, or the pressures at school, and the mindless scrolling on countless social media applications. In short, this great act of seclusion helps a person detach oneself from everything: friends, family, society, and the world - and to attach oneself to the only thing that truly matters: Allah.
Book Synopsis Law and Legal Theory in Classical and Medieval Islam by : Wael B. Hallaq
Download or read book Law and Legal Theory in Classical and Medieval Islam written by Wael B. Hallaq and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These studies by Wael Hallaq represent an important contribution to our understanding of the neglected field of medieval Islamic law and legal thought. Spanning the period from the 8th to the 16th centuries, they draw upon a wide range of original sources to offer both fresh interpretations of those sources and a careful evaluation of contemporary scholarship. The first articles expound the interrelated issues of legal reasoning, legal logic and the epistemology of the law. There follows a set of primarily historical studies, which question a series of widely held assumptions, while the last items explore issues of legal theory and methodology. One particular topic concerns the role of Shafi'i as the ’master architect’ of Islamic legal theory, and Professor Hallaq would finally argue that this image is in fact false and a creation of later centuries.
Book Synopsis The Origins of Islamic Law by : Yasin Dutton
Download or read book The Origins of Islamic Law written by Yasin Dutton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the Qur'an is the first written formulation of Islam in general, Malik's Muwatta' is arguably the first written formulation of the Islam-in-practice that becomes Islamic law. This book considers the methods used by Malik in the Muwatta' to derive the judgements of the law from the Qur'an and is thus concerned on one level with the finer details of Qur'anic interpretation. However, since any discussion of the Qur'an in this context must also include considerations of the other main source of Islamic law, namely the sunna, or normative practice, of the Prophet, this latter concept, especially its relationship to the terms of hadith and amal (traditions and living tradition), also receives considerable attention, and in many respects, this book is more about the history and development of Islamic law than it is about the science of Qur'anic interpretation. This is the first book to question the hitherto accepted frameworks of both the classical Muslim view and the current revisionist western view on the development of Islamic law. It is also the first study in a European language to deal specifically with the early development of the Madinan, later Malik, school of jurisprudence, as it is also the first to demonstrate in detail the various methods used, both linguistic and otherwise, in interpreting the legal verses of the Qur'an. It will be of interest to all those interested in the underlying bases of Islamic law and culture, and of particular interest to those involved in studying and teaching Islamic studies, both at undergraduate and research level. It will also be of interest to those studying the relationship between orality and literacy in ancient societies and the writing down of ancient law.

Book excerpt: Sahih Bukhari is a collection of sayings and deeds of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), also known as the Sunnah. The reports of the Prophet's (saw) sayings and deeds are called ahadeeth. Imam Bukhari lived a couple of centuries after the Prophet's (saw) death and worked extremely hard to collect his ahadeeth. Each report in his collection was checked for compatibility with the Qur'an, and the veracity of the chain of reporters had to be painstakingly established. Bukhari's collection is recognized by the overwhelming majority of the Muslim world to be one of the most authentic collections of the Sunnah of the Prophet(pbuh).

Book Synopsis Fiqh of Social Media by : Omar Usman
Download or read book Fiqh of Social Media written by Omar Usman and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media and digital technologies have changed our lives and there is no indication that things will slow down. As Muslims, we believe that Islam contains the most perfect guidance for all of mankind to follow. How do we implement that timeless advice in our unprecedented times? That is the focus of the Fiqh of Social Media. "I am grateful and appreciative of my friend, Omar Usman, for exhausting available resources; Islamic, psychological, secular, and business, to develop the work you see before you. We have had long discussions pertaining to many of the topics covered in this book. I am confident that you will find this book to be beneficial, and I pray that it inspires more contributions on this topic." -Shaykh AbdulNasir Jangda, Qalam Institute "With the time we spend on social media, being mindful of how we use it is crucial. This is a wonderful resource based in prophetic guidance on how to practically use social media in wise and beneficial ways." -Dr. Omar Suleiman, Yaqeen Institute "Reading Fiqh of Social Media is like sitting with your best friend from Sunday school and having an intellectual & spiritual conversation about the impact of social media on your life. Omar distills years of research, experience, and thought leadership in an easily digestible book that you can enjoy with a good cup of coffee (and your phone off!)" -Mohammed Faris, The Productive Muslim Company "The Prophet (s) said, "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should say something good or keep silent." The ability to control our tongues, how we communicate with others, is an expression of our faith. Communication has evolved and changed so much that one of the primary ways many of us communicate with others is through social media; hashtags and 280 characters. This is a long-awaited work from my good friend and Hajj companion Omar Usman who has been writing, tweeting, speaking, and teaching about the Fiqh of Social Media for years. This is a valuable work providing guidance on how to use and benefit from social media in a way that conforms to our principles and values." -Shaykh Furhan Zubairi, Institute of Knowledge "Ulama of the past have written on the adaab of speech and social interaction. Connecting those guidelines with the modern world of social media has been the need of our time. May Allah reward Omar for taking this task on!" -Mufti Hussain Kamani, Qalam Institute "This is a must-read for Muslims around the globe. I can't thank Omar enough for this work which forces Muslims to look in the mirror and answer tough questions about how social media has impacted our lives. It questions why we desire to share the most intimate aspects of our lives with strangers from around the world and provides action items to implement. These discussions need to be had within the Muslim community. We have to question how our quality of life has been impacted by the age of hyper-connectivity. Due to the fact that Social Media is the tool for creating social capital, we need to realize that speaking about the harms of constant connectivity takes a lot of courage. Thank you, Omar, for this work." -Shaykh Mikaeel Smith, Qalam Institute

Book Synopsis Islamic and Comparative Religious Studies by : William A. Graham
Download or read book Islamic and Comparative Religious Studies written by William A. Graham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William A Graham, a leading international scholar in the field of Islamic Studies, gathers together his selected writings under three sections: 1.History and Interpretation of Islamic Religion; 2.The Qur'an as Scripture, and 3. Scripture in the History of Religion. Each section opens with a new introduction by Graham, and a bibliography of his works is included. Graham's work in Islamic studies focuses largely on the analysis and interpretation of the religious dimensions of ritual action, scriptural piety, textual authority/revelation, tradition, and major concepts, such as grace and transcendence. His work in the comparative history of religion has focused in particular on the 'problem' of scripture as a cross-cultural religious phenomenon that is more complex than simply 'sacred text'. This invaluable resource will be of primary interest to students of the Islamic tradition, especially as regards Qur'anic piety, Muslim 'ritual' practice, and fundamental structures of Islamic thought, and to students of the comparative history of religion, especially as regards the phenomenon of 'scripture' and its analogs.
