Book Synopsis The Ulama in Contemporary Islam by : Muhammad Qasim Zaman
Download or read book The Ulama in Contemporary Islam written by Muhammad Qasim Zaman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-16 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the cleric-led Iranian revolution to the rise of the Taliban in Afghanistan, many people have been surprised by what they see as the modern reemergence of an antimodern phenomenon. This book helps account for the increasingly visible public role of traditionally educated Muslim religious scholars (the `ulama) across contemporary Muslim societies. Muhammad Qasim Zaman describes the transformations the centuries-old culture and tradition of the `ulama have undergone in the modern era--transformations that underlie the new religious and political activism of these scholars. In doing so, it provides a new foundation for the comparative study of Islam, politics, and religious change in the contemporary world. While focusing primarily on Pakistan, Zaman takes a broad approach that considers the Taliban and the `ulama of Iran, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, India, and the southern Philippines. He shows how their religious and political discourses have evolved in often unexpected but mutually reinforcing ways to redefine and enlarge the roles the `ulama play in society. Their discourses are informed by a longstanding religious tradition, of which they see themselves as the custodians. But these discourses are equally shaped by--and contribute in significant ways to--contemporary debates in the Muslim public sphere. This book offers the first sustained comparative perspective on the `ulama and their increasingly crucial religious and political activism. It shows how issues of religious authority are debated in contemporary Islam, how Islamic law and tradition are continuously negotiated in a rapidly changing world, and how the `ulama both react to and shape larger Islamic social trends. Introducing previously unexamined facets of religious and political thought in modern Islam, it clarifies the complex processes of religious change unfolding in the contemporary Muslim world and goes a long way toward explaining their vast social and political ramifications.

Book Synopsis Islam and the Arab Revolutions by : Usaama Al-Azami
Download or read book Islam and the Arab Revolutions written by Usaama Al-Azami and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-01 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arab revolutions of 2011 were a transformative moment in the modern history of the Middle East, as people rose up against long-standing autocrats throughout the region to call for 'bread, freedom and dignity'. With the passage of time, results have been decidedly mixed, with tentative success stories like Tunisia contrasting with the emergence of even more repressive dictatorships in places like Egypt, with the backing of several Gulf states. Focusing primarily on Egypt, this book considers a relatively understudied dimension of these revolutions: the role of prominent religious scholars. While pro-revolutionary ulama have justified activism against authoritarian regimes, counter-revolutionary scholars have provided religious backing for repression, and in some cases the mass murder of unarmed protestors. Usaama al-Azami traces the public engagements and religious pronouncements of several prominent ulama in the region, including Yusuf al-Qaradawi, Ali Gomaa and Abdullah bin Bayyah, to explore their role in either championing the Arab revolutions or supporting their repression. He concludes that while a minority of noted scholars have enthusiastically endorsed the counter-revolutions, their approach is attributable less to premodern theology and more to their distinctly modern commitment to the authoritarian state.
Book Synopsis The 'Ulama in Contemporary Pakistan by : Mashal Saif
Download or read book The 'Ulama in Contemporary Pakistan written by Mashal Saif and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Mashal Saif explores how contemporary 'ulama, the guardians of religious knowledge and law, engage with the world's most populated Islamic nation-state: Pakistan. In mapping these engagements, she weds rigorous textual analysis with fieldwork and offers insight into some of the most significant and politically charged issues in recent Pakistani history. These include debates over the rights of women; the country's notorious blasphemy laws; the legitimacy of religiously mandated insurrection against the state; sectarian violence; and the place of Shi'as within the Sunni majority nation. These diverse case studies are knit together by the project's most significant contribution: a theoretical framework that understands the 'ulama's complex engagements with their state as a process of both contestation and cultivation of the Islamic Republic by citizen-subjects. This framework provides a new way of assessing state - 'ulama relations not only in contemporary Pakistan but also across the Muslim world.

Book Synopsis Religion and Politics in Iraq by : Muhammad Ismail Marcinkowski
Download or read book Religion and Politics in Iraq written by Muhammad Ismail Marcinkowski and published by Pustaka Nasional Pte Ltd. This book was released on 2004 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion and Politics in Iraq features four chapters that outline the major political developments faced by Iraq's Muslim clerics from the end of the 19th century, under the ailing Ottoman empire, to the 1980s. This crucial period saw fierce internal struggles, foreign intervention and bloody persecution of the political opposition, as well as the emergence of a totalitarian one-party system with absolute control over all sectors of social and religious life. During this period, Baathist Iraq attacked its Muslim neighbours Kuwait and Iran and used poison gas in its "ethnic cleansing" campaign against the Kurds. This book focuses on the dilemma of Iraq's clerics within this setting, caught between political activism and quietism. It addresses also major developments in neighbouring Iran insofar as they had a bearing on Iraq.
Book Synopsis The Politics of the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Pakistan by : Sayyid A. S. Pirzada
Download or read book The Politics of the Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Pakistan written by Sayyid A. S. Pirzada and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This work is based on the Ph.D. thesis of the author. It is a welcome arrival in a field that has, so far, not attracted much research - there are not many books on the role and influences exercised by religious parties in Pakistan. On the subject of the JUIP, specifically, Dr. Pirzada has achieved a first as there is no other well researched work on the topic. The lack of academic work on religious politics in Pakistan is a serious omission. It is a whole school of thought in Pakistani politics which has gained in influence and power. The book is not only good source material for political scientists, it will also prove to be of interest to any intelligent layman interested in the political history of Pakistan."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Religion and Politics in Contemporary Iran by : Shahrough Akhavi
Download or read book Religion and Politics in Contemporary Iran written by Shahrough Akhavi and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1980-06-30 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indispensable for understanding the recent conflicts in Iran, Religion and Politics in Contemporary Iran provides a political history of the fluctuating relationships between the Islamic clergy and Iranian government since 1925. How different factions of the clergy, or ulama first lost and then regained a powerful position in Iran is the subject of this book. Akhavi analyzes how various factions within the clergy have responded to the government's efforts to encourage modernization and secularization, giving particular attention to the changes in the madrasahs, or theological colleges. He examines the main themes of the AyatullaH Khymayni's book, Islamic Government, and concludes by examining the alignments among the clergy in the past that indicate how they may develop in the future.
