The Islāmic Law of Succession

Sometimes it is necessary to divide an estate or property amongst individuals in a
fixed ratio. Consider the following examples: i. Divide six apples amongst Munir
and Munirah so that Munir has twice the number of apples as Munirah. We could
also say divide six apples amongst Munir and Munirah in a ratio of 2:1. Or we
could say divide six apples amongst Munir and Munirah so that the male gets the
portion of two females. One way of calculating this problem is to add the numbers

Pengembangan diri menjadi pribadi mulia

"Saat ini banyak muncul elite-elite muslim di berbagai lembaga pemerintah dan swasta yang mengalami krisis integritas. Kecerdasan intelek hanya mengantarkan sosok kaum muslim menjadi manusai yang memiliki wawasan pengetahuan tentang Islam, tetapi tidak mengantarkannya menjadi muslim yang berakhlak mulia. Sementara itu muncul kelompok putus asa yang kehilangan kepercayaan dan kesabaran dalam menghadapi elite-elite muslim di berbagai lembaga pemerintah yang mengalami krisis integritas. Mereka mencari jalan pintas untuk segera keluar dari kebusukan ini dengan mengembangkan pola pikir dan corak keislaman yang radikal. Padahal Islam adalah ajaran yang berdasarkan pada landasan akidah, syariat, dan al-akhl�q al-kar�mah, akhlak yang mulia. Ini semua tercermin pada perilaku Nabi Muhammad saw., sebagai al-Qur`an hidup. Rasulullah merupakan figur sentral yang menjadi teladan umat Islam dalam kehidupan sosial, intelektual, dan penghayatan nilai-nilai spiritual. Buku ini diharapkan menjadi ragi dalam mengembangkan corak keislaman yang menjadikan seorang muslim menjadi pribadi yang memadukan keyakinan agama yang kuat dengan pengamalan ibadah yang mantap. Dari keyakinan yang kuat dan ibadah yang mantap, melahirkan sosok seorang muslim yang memiliki kesalehan sosial. Seorang muslim yang tampil dengan kepribadian yang mulia, peduli dan berbagi, serta toleran dengan segala perbedaan yang ada. Dari corak keislaman yang memadukan ilmu dan amal, serta akal dan kalbu; diharapkan akan membimbing umat memiliki kekuatan akal atau argumentasi yang kuat untuk menolak corak keislaman yang radikal; sementara pada waktu yang sama akan menguatkan integritas moral dan akhlak."

Islam and Politics in East Africa

The Sufi Order in Tanzania

Islam and Politics in East Africa was first published in 1980. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Focusing on the interplay of religion, society, and politics, August Nimtz examines the role of sufi tariqas (brotherhoods) in Tanzania, where he observed an African Muslim society at first hand. Nimtz opens this book with a historical account of Islam in East Africa, and in subsequent chapters analyzes the role of tariqas in Tanzania and, more specifically, in the coastal city of Bagamoyo. Using a conceptual framework derived from contemporary political theories on social cleavages and individual interests. Nimtz explains why the tariqa is important in the process of political change. The fundamental cleavage in Muslim East Africa, he notes, is that of "whites" versus blacks. Nimtz contends that the tariqus, in serving the interest of blacks (that is, Africans), became in turn vehicles for the mass mobilization of African Muslims during the anti-colonial struggle. In Bagamoyo he finds a similar process and, in addition, reveals that the tariqas have served African interests in opposition to those of "whites" because of the individual benefits they provide. At the same time, Nimtz concludes, the social structure of East African Muslim society has ensured that Africans would be particularly attracted to these benefits. This work will interest both observers of African political development and specialists in the Islamic studies.

Following these assumptions, I employ a conceptual framework that combines on
the one hand a theoretical perspective on conflict groups and social change—
Ralf Dahrendorf's theory of group conflict—and on the other a microanalytic
model of interest groups- Robert Salisbury's exchange theory of interest groups. I
use both models as heuristic tools, and, therefore, I do not test them in the
technical sense. It may be useful to point out those aspects of both models
relevant to my ...

The History of Human Rights

From Ancient Times to the Globalization Era

"This well-written book, chock-full of knowledge, presents a history of the idea, or ideas, of human rights through the prism of the author's thoughtful views on key controversies that bedevil human rights discourse to this day."--Professor Sir Nigel Rodley, Chair, University of Essex Human Rights Centre; Member, (UN) Human Rights Committee

Islam therefore invited all people to the truth; and should disputes arise between
different religious groups over its meaning, it is Allah "that will show you the truth
of the matters in which ye dispute" (surah 5:48). LIBERTY: THE ORIGINS OF
TOLERANCE Even if one can easily show that the "right to life and security" (
article 3 of the Universal Declaration) has deep roots in ancient religions and
cultures, it would be excessive to claim that what we understand today as liberty
is equally ...

A Study in Scarlet

Illustrated by Nis Jessen

The artwork in Nis Jessen's new version of "A Study in Scarlet" is based on - and selected from - his massive book (weighing 2 kilo and with 625 illustrations) that was published in 2005. This version is created as Nis Jessen's tribute to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's genius that gave the world 125 years of intelligent and meaningful fictitious reading in at least 84 languages. Nis Jessen invested 8 years in research and artwork at his drawing table to show the most authentic atmosphere of Victorian London, hansom cabs, gaslight - with other words: Sherlock Holmes' world - but also the early Mormon settlements at Salt Lake City, Utah.

Bible says, For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and
of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV). Fear is one of the greatest distractions that
the enemy uses to keep us from doing the things we know God wants of us. How
does that tool of fear relate to finances? Well, I can only tell you what happened
to me. It goes back to watching my family struggle. It wasn't uncommon for us to ...

The Valley of the Kings

A Site Management Handbook

During the New Kingdom (c. 1570–1070 BCE), the Valley of the Kings was the burial place of Egypt’s pharaohs, including such powerful and famous rulers as Amenhotep III, Rameses II, and Tutankhamen. They were buried here in large and beautifully decorated tombs that have become among the country’s most visited archaeological sites. The tourists contribute millions of badly needed dollars to Egypt’s economy. But because of inadequate planning, these same visitors are destroying the very tombs they come to see. Crowding, pollution, changes in the tombs’ air quality, ever-growing tourist infrastructure—all pose serious threats to the Valley’s survival. This volume, the result of twenty-five years of work by the Theban Mapping Project at the American University in Cairo, traces the history of the Valley of the Kings and offers specific proposals to manage the site and protect its fragile contents. At the same time, it recognizes the need to provide a positive experience for the thousands of visitors who flock here daily. This is the first major management plan developed for any Egyptian archaeological site, and as its proposals are implemented, they offer a replicable model for archaeologists, conservators, and site managers throughout Egypt and the region. Published in both English and Arabic editions and supported by the World Monuments Fund, this critical study will help to ensure the survival of Egypt’s patrimony in a manner compatible with the country’s heavy reliance on tourism income.

As we have demonstrated in the preceding chapters, the greatest threats facing
the Valley of the Kings today are a result of its popularity with visitors. To tackle
the complex problems caused by such huge numbers of visitors, we have to
identify the causes, and develop plans to manage the Valley in ways that will
mitigate tourism's adverse effects. For example, we need to calculate how many
people can safely visit the Valley in a single day; how many can visit in one hour;
how tourists ...

Dalam hal ini, ilmu dakwah sama dengan ilmu-ilmu keislaman yang lain, seperti
fikih, ilmu kalam, tafsir dakwah, dan Hadis dakwah. Ilmu-ilmu keislaman ini
memiliki objek material yang juga adalah Al-Qur'an dan Hadis. Jadi, ilmu dakwah
adalah satu rumpun dengan ilmu-ilmu tersebut. Ketika ilmu dakwah masuk
dalam kategori ilmu agama, maka ia bertitik tolak dari Al-Qur'an dan Hadis
melalui pemikiran logis deduktif. Dengan demikian, dakwah dianggap kurang
