Araabia homme

DAVID B. OTAWAY

oktoober 6, 1981, oli mõeldud Egiptuses pidupäevaks. See tähistas aastapäeva Egiptuse suurimast võiduhetkest kolmes Araabia-Iisraeli konfliktis, kui riigi allajäänud armee tungis selle avapäevadel üle Suessi kanali 1973 Jom Kippuri sõda ja saatis Iisraeli väed taganema. Jahedal, pilvitu hommik, Kairo staadion oli pungil Egiptuse peredest, kes olid tulnud vaatama sõjaväelasi, jalas oma riistvara., president Anwar el-Sadat,sõja arhitekt, vaatas rahulolevalt, kuidas mehed ja masinad tema ees paradeerusid. Olin lähedal, äsja saabunud väliskorrespondent.Äkki, üks armee veoautodest peatus otse ülevaatuse stendi ees just siis, kui kuus Mirage'i lennukit möirgasid pea kohal akrobaatilises etenduses, taeva maalimine pikkade punaste jälgedega, kollane, lilla,ja rohelist suitsu. Sadat tõusis püsti, ilmselt valmistub tervitusi vahetama veel ühe Egiptuse vägede kontingendiga. Ta tegi endast täiusliku sihtmärgi neljale veoautolt hüpanud islami palgamõrvarile, tungis poodiumile, ja täitis ta keha kuulidega.Kui mõrvarid jätkasid terve igaviku, et pritsida püstiku oma surmava tulega., Mõtlesin hetke, kas lüüa vastu maad ja riskida, et paanikas pealtvaatajad tallavad end surnuks või jään jalgele ja riskin hulkuva kuuliga. Sisetunne käskis mul jalul püsida, ja minu ajakirjanduslik kohusetunne sundis mind minema uurima, kas Sadat on elus või surnud.

Poliitilise islami Somaalias

Georg-Sebastian Holzer

Since the attacks of 9/11 Somalia has become the subject of renewed attention from the United States and Europe. As thearchetype of a failed state, the threat it poses has been equated to that which the US faced in Afghanistan and is seen as a fertile groundfor radical Islamic groups, in particular al-Qaeda. However Islam in Somalia has a distinct nature. An examination of its history leads to an understanding of the complex relationship between religion and Somaliclan-based society. A closer investigation of two of the most importantIslamist groups, al-Itihaad and the Council of Islamic Courts, will helpto comprehend this relationship within the context of contemporary Somalia. lõpuks, this article analyses the role of Islam in Somalia’s new economy by focusing on the example of the remittance and telecommunication company al-Barakaat that was linked to al-Qaeda by the US afterthe 9/11 terrorist attacks.THE DISTINCT NATURE OF ISLAM IN SOMALIA The history of Islam at the Horn of Africa stretches back 1400years. The faith reached the Horn of Africa from the Arabian Peninsula through trade and migration, mainly from Yemen and Oman.1By 1400AD, a large-scale conversion to Islam was taking place in Somalia, first spread by the Dir clan family, but followed by the restof the nation.2 In Somalia today, almost 100% of the population are Sunni Muslim, generally adhering to a Shafi’i version of the religion.As I.M. Lewis has pointed out, this was closely linked to thegenealogical myths of Somali clan identity and is characterized by the veneration of saints as well as ancestors of various Somali clans.Apolitical Sufism has traditionally dominated this faith.

Kodanikuühiskonna ja demokraatia on Araabia maailm

Saad Eddin Ibrahim

Isegi kui islam on vastus, Araabia moslemid on probleem

Maikuus 2008, Araabia rahvas koges mitmeid tulekahjusid, või õigemini, relvastatud konfliktid—aastal

Liibanon, Iraak, Palestiinas, Jeemen, ja Somaalia. Nendes konfliktides,

sõdivad pooled kasutasid islamit mobilisatsioonivahendina

ja kogudes toetust. Kollektiivselt, Moslemid on

sõda moslemite vastu.

Pärast seda, kui mõned moslemid tõstatasid loosungi "Islam on lahendus,”

seda

selgus, et "probleem on nende islam". Niipea, kui mõni neist on relvad omandanud,

kui nad tõstatasid selle riigi ja seda valitseva režiimi vastu sõltumata

kas see režiim valitses islami nimel või mitte.

Meil on

näinud seda viimastel aastatel Osama bin Ladeni järgijate vahel

ja ühelt poolt Al-Qaeda organisatsioon, ja võimud sisse

Saudi Araabia kuningriik, teiselt poolt. Oleme näinud ka an

plahvatuslik näide selle nähtuse kohta Marokos, kelle kuningas valitseb islami nimel ja

mille pealkiri on "Ustavate prints".’ Seega tapab iga moslemirühmitus teisi moslemeid

islami nimi.

Kiire pilk meedia sisule kinnitab, kuidas

islam ja sellega seotud sümbolid on muutunud nende moslemite käes lihtsalt tööriistadeks.

Nende islamit ekspluateerivate rühmituste silmapaistvad näited on:

Muslim Brotherhood, Egiptuse islami džihaad, ja Jamiat al-Islamiyya, Egiptuses

Hamas ja Islami Džihaadi liikumine, Palestiinas Hizbollah, Fatah al-Islam,

ja Jamiat al-Islammiyya, Liibanonis Houthi Zayadi mässulised ja islamireformi rühmitus

(Parandamine), Jeemenis Islami kohtud, Somaalias Islami rinne ,

the 500 most influential muslims

John Esposito

Ibrahim Kalin

Avaldamine on teie käed on esimene, mida loodetavasti anannual seeria, mis pakub akna movers ja Shakers kohta Muslimworld. Oleme püüdnud esile inimesi, kes on mõjukas nagu moslemid, thatis, inimesed, kelle mõju on saadud nende teguviis Islam või factthat nad on moslemid. We think that this gives valuable insight into the differentways that Muslims impact the world, and also shows the diversity of how peopleare living as Muslims today.Influence is a tricky concept. Its meaning derives from the Latin word influensmeaning to flow-in, pointing to an old astrological idea that unseen forces (like themoon) affect humanity. The figures on this list have the ability to affect humanitytoo. In a variety of different ways each person on this list has influence over thelives of a large number of people on the earth. The 50 most influential figuresare profiled. Their influence comes from a variety of sources; however they areunified by the fact that they each affect huge swathes of humanity.We have then broken up the 500 leaders into 15 categories—Scholarly, Political,Administrative, Lineage, Preachers, Naised, Youth, Philanthropy, Development,Science and Technology, Arts and Culture, Meedia, Radicals, International IslamicNetworks, and Issues of the Day—to help you understand the different kinds ofways Islam and Muslims impact the world today.Two composite lists show how influence works in different ways: InternationalIslamic Networks shows people who are at the head of important transnationalnetworks of Muslims, and Issues of the Day highlights individuals whoseimportance is due to current issues affecting humanity.

THE ISLAH MOVEMENT: Islamic Moderation in War-torn Somalia

Abdurahman M.. Abdullahi

The growth of Islamic movements has been attracting greaterinterest over the last three decades, in particular after the 9/11 attack on US targets and the subsequent declaration of the GlobalWar on Terrorism. Many factors have contributed to this growth; oneof the major causes has been the failure of the post-colonial statesin many Muslim countries and the attractiveness of the oppositionalIslamic approach as an alternative. These movements took various2courses to realize their agendas and formulated differentmethodologies and strategies because of the diverse conditions andenvironment in which they have grown and are operating2. Forinstance, some movements in dictatorial regimes or in Muslimcommunities under foreign occupation or those living as amarginalized minority may resort to violence as the only availablemeans of political expression. Teiselt poolt, movements in thedemocratic environment usually participate in the democraticpolitical process and implement successful social programs3. In theSomali context, Somali students in the Arab World universities in1960s had been interacting with different Islamic groups, embracedsimilar ideas and gradually formed comparable movements. Inparticular, two main organizations have become more prominentsince the 1980s; namely the Muslim Brotherhood affiliated Islah(reform) Movement (1978) and the neo-Salafia associated al-Ittihad(Islamic Union) Movement (1980) and its successive offshoots .
