Book Description
A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. Up to the twentieth century, Islamic charitable endowments provided the material foundation of the Muslim world. In Lebanon, with the fall of the Ottoman Empire and the imposition of French colonial rule, many of these endowments reverted to private property circulating in the marketplace. In contemporary Beirut, however, charitable endowments have resurfaced as mosques, Islamic centers, and nonprofit organizations. A historical anthropology in dialogue with Islamic law, God's Property demonstrates how these endowments have been drawn into secular logics—no longer the property of God but of the Muslim community—and shaped by the modern state and modern understandings of charity and property. Although these transformations have produced new kinds of loyalties and new ways of being in society, Moumtaz’s ethnography reveals the furtive persistence of endowment practices that perpetuate older ways of thinking of one’s self and one’s responsibilities toward family and state.

Book Description
Wie wird Raum durch historische und religiöse Ansprüche auf Grundbesitz konzipiert und konstituiert? Wie wird Enteignung in sich verändernden Eigentumsordnungen umgesetzt und theoretisiert? Die Beiträge dieses Bandes befassen sich mit postkolonialen Kritiken des Grundbesitzes und bieten eine dringend benötigte Kontextualisierung der Art und Weise, wie die Geschichte des göttlichen Besitzes, des Imperiums, des Siedlerkolonialismus, der Sklaverei und der Enteignung indigener Völker die heutige Praxis des Grundbesitzes beeinflusst. Das Buch vereint dafür Perspektiven aus den Bereichen Religionswissenschaft, Geschichte, Philosophie, Rechtsgeschichte, Ökonomie und Soziologie und leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Verknüpfung von Theorie und Praxis in der Kritik zeitgenössischer Eigentumsordnungen in Europa und Nordamerika; es liefert zudem methodische Anregungen, um theoretische Diskussionen auf ein nuanciertes Verständnis der Vergangenheit zu gründen. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

The Bible is fulfilling what God said has come to past. God’s purpose is to defeat Satan. We can choose who we want to serve: God or Satan. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. God’s purpose enables us to do things that we could not have done if it was not for the Lord. Go out and spread the Word of God: help and love one another, because God knew us when we were in our mother’s womb. He knew from the beginning of time who he was going to use (the Elect) to stand against the anti-Christ (Satan) at the end of time. You can choose to serve God and have eternal life. God’s purpose is unstoppable: different peoples and things will come up against a child of God who is doing God’s will. If you have God on your side He’s God and God all by Himself and NOBODY CAN STOP GOD!

Book Description
"An Introduction to Roman Religion" offers students of ancient Rome and classical civilization entry into a distant world in which the state, the social life of the city, and religion were inextricably bound. Professor Scheid draws on the latest findings in archaeology and history to explain the meanings of rituals, rites, auspices, and oracles, to describe the uses of temples and sacred ground, and to evoke the daily patterns of religious life and observance within the city of Rome and its environs. "An Introduction to Roman Religion" includes a wealth of quotations from primary sources, a chronology of religious and historical events from 750 BC to AD 494, a full glossary and an annotated guide to further reading. -- From publisher's description.
