Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monumental work, The Political Theory of the Delhi Sultanate, embodies in its corpus political thought and theory in medieval Mohamedan India, critically studied and preset to the academic world, mainly based on Ziauddin Barani's classical Persian historical work, Fatwa-i Jahandari. Dr. Afsar's translation of Fatwa-i Jahandari, from only one manuscript of that valuable work, in the India Office Library, London, from the main body of this volume. It is for the first time that this book, a veritable mirror of Barani's mind, appears. It enables us to understand the real character of the empire of Delhi. The duties of the king with reference to almost every institution are surveyed by the Jahandari in detail. The state was not theocratic, its basis was not the Shariat of Islam but Zawabit or state law made by the king. Barani, old, bent, half-blind, desperately poor, writing this book, his last, at the advanced age of seventy-eight, was not in harmony with a non-religious, non-Islamic society. Dr. Afsar Begum gives copious footnotes to explain the workings of his mind. The Fatawa is the most thought-provoking work of the Sultanate period and Dr. Afsar's translation is commendable. Dr. Mohammad Habib's introduction makes this work very intelligible. Dr. Habib has added seven chapters wherein he has dealt with in detail the life and thought of ZIauddin Barani. They are a befitting epilogue to this book. It is hoped this book will fill a lacuna in medieval historical literature. It will be received with due attention and appreciation that it richly deserves.

Book Synopsis Islam in South Asia by : Jamal Malik
Download or read book Islam in South Asia written by Jamal Malik and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam in South Asia: Revised, Enlarged and Updated Second Edition traces the roots and development of Muslim presence in South Asia. Trajectories of normative notions of state-building and the management of diversity are elaborated in four clusters, augmented by topical subjects in excursuses and annexes offering an array of Muslim voices. The enormous time span from 650 to 2019 provides for a comprehensive and plural canvas of the religious self-presentation of South Asian Muslims. Making use of the latest academic works and historical materials, including first-hand accounts ranging from official statements to poetry, Malik convincingly argues that these texts provide sufficient evidence to arrive at an interpretation of quite a different character. With major and substantial revisions, changes, abridgements and additions follow the academic literature produced during the last decades.

Book Synopsis Knowledge before Action by : Amina M. Steinfels
Download or read book Knowledge before Action written by Amina M. Steinfels and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Knowledge before Action, Amina M. Steinfels examines medieval Sufism and its place in Islamic society by telling the story of the life and career of Sayyid Jalal al-din Bukhari, a revered figure in Pakistan. Considered one of the most important Sufi masters of South Asia, Sayyid Jalal al-din Bukhari, more popularly referred to as Makhdum-i Jahaniyan, is known for combining spirituality and scholarship in a formative period for Sufism. Steinfels assembles the details of Bukhari's life from records of his teachings, dynastic chronicles, and correspondence to discover how he achieved his status and laid the groundwork for a devotional cult that has lasted seven centuries. Steinfels also examines Bukhari's theories of the relationship between scholar and mystic. Bukhari's teachings provide windows into the underlying concerns and themes of medieval Sufism. Knowledge before Action describes Bukhari's training as a scholar and a Sufi, his exercise of religious authority over his disciples, and his theories of the relationships between saint and shaykh. Knowledge before Action discusses ritual and contemplative practices, the economic bases of Sufi institutions, and the interconnectedness between Sufi masters, the 'ulama, and the political authorities by telling the story of Bukhari.
