Abstract:The idea that dogs are held in contempt in Islam amounts almost to a truism in the modern West. This notion is shared by both Muslims and non-Muslims and is reflected in writings ranging from public media to academic literature. The supposed Muslim bias against dogs is inferred primarily from two themes: (1) the emphasis that Muslim tradition lays on the principle of the impurity of dogs and (2) the objection to admitting these animals indoors and keeping them as pets. However, some have pointed out that an important exception to this rule is the Qur'ānic narrative of the Aṣḥāb al-Kahf, or the Companions of the Cave (also known as Ahl al-Kahf), in which a dog is a prominent feature. Previous academic discussions of this story, however, fall short of accounting for the full significance of this character. More than merely providing a favorable depiction of the dog, the Aṣḥāb al-Kahf pericope redefines the role and status of the dog in accordance with the Qur'ān's theocentric worldview. Moreover, even though the issues of the impurity of dogs and keeping them as pets are not discussed explicitly in the Qur'ān, they seem to be implicit in this Qur'ānic narrative, without conveying negative connotations. In this article I reexamine the Aṣḥāb al-Kahf pericope in light of current scholarship on dogs to consider how the Qur'ānic viewpoint agrees with or departs from cultural stances on dogs in world traditions, and how the Qur'ān inscribes its own worldview on the role and status of this animal.
摘要:在现代西方,狗在伊斯兰教中被蔑视的观点几乎是不言自明的。穆斯林和非穆斯林都认同这一观点,从公共媒体到学术文献都反映了这一观点。穆斯林对狗的偏见主要是从两个方面推断出来的:(1)穆斯林传统强调狗不洁的原则;(2)反对让这些动物进入室内并把它们当作宠物饲养。然而,一些人指出,这一规则的一个重要例外是古兰经ānic对Aṣḥāb al-Kahf或洞穴同伴(也称为Ahl al-Kahf)的叙述,其中一只狗是一个突出的特征。然而,之前关于这个故事的学术讨论没有充分考虑到这个角色的全部意义。Aṣḥāb al-Kahf pericope不仅仅提供了对狗的有利描述,还根据《古兰经》ān以神为中心的世界观重新定义了狗的角色和地位。此外,尽管古兰经ān中没有明确讨论狗的不洁和养狗作为宠物的问题,但在古兰经ānic的叙述中,它们似乎是隐含的,没有传达负面的内涵。在这篇文章中,我根据当前关于狗的学术研究,重新审视Aṣḥāb al-Kahf pericope,以考虑古兰经ānic的观点是如何与世界传统中对狗的文化立场一致或偏离的,以及古兰经ān如何将自己的世界观铭文在这种动物的角色和地位上。

Illness and the Hospital in the Muslim City: Reflections on the Pietistic Space of Illness in Premodern Islam 疾病与穆斯林城市的医院:对前现代伊斯兰教中疾病的虔诚空间的思考

Abstract:Illness constituted an important moment in accounts of the life of the Prophet Muḥammad and many of his Companions. It was presented as a conduit for forgiveness and divine favor, and also as an occasion for communal connections through ritualized visitations to the sick. In this context, the development of the Islamic hospital (bīmāristān) as a charitable establishment was connected to these narratives and represented a space for the pietistic experience of illness and healing. Building on previous research, this article explores the pietistic dimension of illness in premodern Islam and offers preliminary observations on the connection between Islamic hospitals and the pietistic discourse of illness in Muslim culture and literature.
摘要:在先知Muḥammad和他的许多同伴的一生中,疾病构成了一个重要的时刻。它被认为是宽恕和神圣恩惠的管道,也是通过仪式化的探视病人来建立公共联系的场合。在这种情况下,作为慈善机构的伊斯兰医院(bīmāristān)的发展与这些叙述联系在一起,并为虔诚的疾病和治疗体验提供了空间。在先前研究的基础上,本文探讨了前现代伊斯兰教中疾病的虔信主义维度,并对伊斯兰医院与穆斯林文化和文学中疾病的虔信主义话语之间的联系提供了初步观察。

Qingzhen from the Perspective of the Other: Consumption and Muslim Boundary-Making in Republican China, 1920–1949 他者视角下的清真:民国时期的消费与穆斯林边界划定(1920-1949)
Pub Date : 2019-04-25 DOI: 10.2979/JIMS.3.2.03
Faizah Zakaria
Abstract:Studies of ḥalāl (permissible) food production and consumption have often been linked to the assimilation of Muslim communities into the fabric of secular and/or non-Muslim nation-states. Much of the academic discourse on this subject has centered on the boundaries that religious dietary requirements create between an in-group of faithful adherents to the religion and an out-group of those who do not belong. Republican China (1920–1949), with its significant population of Hui and Uyghur Muslims largely concentrated in the northwestern and southeastern parts of the country, offers a new window onto this picture of socialization through commensality. The present article flips the ethnographic lens from viewing Muslim communities alone to viewing the historical perspective of outsiders who interacted and broke bread with Muslims in the Republican period, thus bringing to the surface heretofore overlooked factors that impacted the process of Muslim social boundary-making through consumption. This approach contributes to the historiography and anthropology of Islam in China by spotlighting discretionary agency and by moving away from a focus on practices of exclusivity on the part of Muslim populations or strategies of coercive repression on the part of the nation-state. This has become especially important since the rise of Communism in China, for fasting is one of the rituals of overt religiosity that the communist state has been keen to suppress. From a comparative perspective, this article also demonstrates that gender, class asymmetries, and politics may be as crucial as religion in explaining the dining strategies of Muslim minority communities.
摘要:对ḥalāl(允许的)食品生产和消费的研究通常与穆斯林社区融入世俗和/或非穆斯林民族国家的结构有关。关于这一主题的许多学术论述都集中在宗教饮食要求在宗教忠实信徒的内部群体和不属于宗教的外部群体之间创造的界限上。民国时期(1920-1949),大量回族和维吾尔族穆斯林主要集中在中国的西北部和东南部,这为通过共生实现社会化提供了一扇新的窗口。本文将民族志的视角从单一的穆斯林群体转向共和时期与穆斯林互动、分食的外来者的历史视角,从而揭示了此前被忽视的影响穆斯林通过消费形成社会边界过程的因素。这种方法通过强调自由裁量权,摆脱对穆斯林人口的排他性做法或民族国家的强制镇压策略的关注,有助于中国伊斯兰教的史学和人类学。自从共产主义在中国兴起以来,这一点变得尤为重要,因为斋戒是公开的宗教仪式之一,而这个共产主义国家一直热衷于压制这种仪式。从比较的角度来看,这篇文章还表明,在解释穆斯林少数民族社区的饮食策略时,性别、阶级不对称和政治可能与宗教一样重要。

"Fake News" and "Retweets": News Reporting and Dissemination Ethics in the Qur'ān “假新闻”与“转发”:古兰经中的新闻报道与传播伦理ān

Abiya Ahmed
Abstract:This paper explores an Islamic framework for news reporting and dissemination, as applicable to both reporters and transmitters. Drawing on specific Qur'ānic verses and their exegeses, as well as Hadith methodology, the paper aims to extrapolate Islamic guidelines in relation to practices such as source-checking, content-verification, and accountability. Qur'ānic injunctions and case studies reveal that the highest standards of authentication must be applied when reporting or sharing news and acting upon it. In addition, the dissemination of known corruption or misconduct is allowed for the purpose of redressing wrongs or benefiting the community.

Women in English Qur'ān Translations: Critical Intertextual, Intratextual, and Contextual Analyses 英语古兰经中的女性ān翻译:关键的互文,文内和语境分析
Pub Date : 2019-01-01 DOI: 10.2979/JIMS.3.1.02

Abstract:Since the rise of feminism, the representation of women in the scriptures of world religions has attracted much attention. The field of Qur'ānic studies has been no exception. For example, in 1944 the Arab Feminist Conference demanded restoration of women's rights in light of the correct understanding of the teachings of the Qur'ān. Since that time, Qur'ānic verses on women have been the focus of much research. However, little attention in this regard has been paid to Qur'ān translations. Can Qur'ān translations present images of women differently from the original text? To answer this question, this article attempts an intertextual, intratextual, and contextual analysis of the Qur'ān in Arabic and six widely used English translations. It argues that intertextual, intratextual, and contextual analyses are indispensable for the accurate translation of the Qur'ān and they can open up the text for wider interpretations instead of limiting its meaning and restricting its interpretation. In addition, this article highlights the role that translation plays in reinforcing specific interpretations as the "only acceptable" meaning of the Qur'ān.
摘要:自女性主义兴起以来,世界宗教经典中的女性形象备受关注。古兰经ānic研究领域也不例外。例如,1944年阿拉伯女权主义会议要求根据对古兰经ān教义的正确理解,恢复妇女的权利。从那时起,《古兰经》ānic关于女性的经文一直是许多研究的焦点。然而,在这方面很少注意到古兰经ān的翻译。《古兰经》ān译本所呈现的女性形象与原文不同吗?为了回答这个问题,本文试图对阿拉伯语版本的《古兰经ān》和六种广泛使用的英语版本进行互文、文内和上下文分析。它认为,互文分析,文内分析和上下文分析对于准确翻译古兰经ān是必不可少的,它们可以打开文本的更广泛的解释,而不是限制其意义和限制其解释。此外,本文还强调了翻译在强化古兰经“唯一可接受”意义的特定解释中所起的作用ān。

Why Muslim Sectarian Politics of Rage in the Age of “Empires of Trust?” 为什么“信任帝国”时代会出现穆斯林宗派的愤怒政治?
Pub Date : 2019-01-01 DOI: 10.2979/JIMS.1.1.01
M. Shahrani
Abstract:This presentation will explore how and why the anti-colonial nationalist resistance movements which gradually forced the end of European colonialism led into the rise of new ideologically driven Western Empires of Trust or Empires by Invitation i.e., the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and Euro-American Capitalist Great Powers – controlling Muslim societies and cultures. The recent ever-escalating violence in the name of Islam in Muslim-majority regions against national and post-Soviet governments and their outside patrons will be examined in light of the oppressive political ecology, policies and practices of the Western and Russian empires of trust in the predominantly Muslim-majority societies. It will be argued that the root causes of Muslim politics of rage in these regions is not religious or sectarian, but an externally imposed and forcibly maintained inappropriate system of extractive governments. Therefore, addressing persistent violence, poverty, ignorance and oppression in the Muslim world demands appropriate political reforms, rather than pursuing counter-terrorist/insurgency wars against Islamist extremists, as has been the case for decades.
摘要:本次演讲将探讨反殖民主义民族主义抵抗运动是如何以及为什么逐渐迫使欧洲殖民主义的结束导致了新的意识形态驱动的西方信托帝国或邀请帝国的兴起,即苏维埃社会主义共和国联盟和欧美资本主义大国-控制穆斯林社会和文化。最近在穆斯林占多数的地区,以伊斯兰教的名义对国家和后苏联政府及其外部赞助人不断升级的暴力,将根据西方和俄罗斯帝国在穆斯林占多数的社会中的压迫性政治生态、政策和实践来进行审查。有人认为,这些地区穆斯林政治愤怒的根本原因不是宗教或宗派,而是外部强加和强行维持的不适当的掠夺性政府制度。因此,要解决穆斯林世界持续存在的暴力、贫困、无知和压迫问题,就需要适当的政治改革,而不是像几十年来那样,对伊斯兰极端分子发动反恐/叛乱战争。

Abstract:Since digitality emerges from a Western, Eurocentric weltanschauung, it follows that the digital sphere tacitly rejects Islam and Muslims, where Islam and Muslims are the archetypal Other of the West. Digitality is a continuation of Orientalism, or a Eurocentric power/knowledge project of (continued) global domination. Given Eurocentrism’s inherent racism, given digitality’s omnipresence, and given that Islamophobia is the paradigmatic example of racism, it is inevitable that there will be more and more anti-Islamic/anti-Muslim sentiments throughout the world. This essay is an examination of the ways in which politics in the digital age are reconfigured to fit specific parameters preordained by the digital sphere, and, concurrently, ideas around Islam and Muslimness—whether according to the wider social (media) landscape or by Muslim actors themselves—are also significantly re-shaped by digitality. Digital Islam is disrupting traditional ulematic authority in ways never seen before. This is because authority/knowledge within the interactive spaces of Web 2.0 is dissected, reconfigured and reassembled as another kind of knowledge. Digitality is challenging various branches of Islam (whether Shia, Sunni, Wahhabi, or what have you), when it comes to their authority, not least because traditional Islamic authorities have to now—consciously and unconsciously—comport themselves and their message to the logic of digitality.
摘要:由于数字化产生于西方的、以欧洲为中心的世界观,因此数字领域默认地拒绝伊斯兰教和穆斯林,而伊斯兰教和穆斯林是西方的原型他者。数字化是东方主义的延续,或者是以欧洲为中心的(持续的)全球统治的权力/知识项目。考虑到欧洲中心主义固有的种族主义,考虑到数字无处不在,考虑到伊斯兰恐惧症是种族主义的典型例子,世界各地将不可避免地出现越来越多的反伊斯兰/反穆斯林情绪。本文考察了数字时代的政治如何被重新配置,以适应数字领域预先设定的特定参数,同时,围绕伊斯兰教和穆斯林的思想——无论是根据更广泛的社会(媒体)景观还是穆斯林行动者自己——也被数字化显著地重新塑造。数字伊斯兰正在以前所未有的方式破坏传统的教规权威。这是因为Web 2.0交互空间中的权威/知识作为另一种知识被剖析、重新配置和重新组装。数字化正在挑战伊斯兰教的各个分支(无论是什叶派、逊尼派、瓦哈比教派,还是其他什么教派)的权威,尤其是因为传统的伊斯兰教权威现在必须有意识地或无意识地使自己和他们的信息符合数字化的逻辑。
