Sonallah Ibrahim
Author: Starkey Paul Starkey
Publisher: Edinburgh University Press
ISBN: 1474405797
Category : LITERARY COLLECTIONS
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
This volume is designed as an introduction to the contemporary Egyptian author Sonallah Ibrahim, one of the most important Arabic novelists of the modern era, with an unrivalled reputation for independence and integrity among contemporary Egyptian writers. The first study in any language devoted exclusively to Sonallah Ibrahim, the volume discusses each of the author's novels individually, beginning with the seminal Tilka al-ra'iha [That Smell] (1966) and ending with al-Jalid [Ice] (2011). Each work is discussed individually in its literary, social, historical and political context. The volume traces the evolution of Sonallah Ibrahim's work in terms both of their themes and of their literary technique, and concludes with an attempt at an overall evaluation of the author's contribution to the contemporary Egyptian novel. Paul Starkey's account shows how innovative and stylistically rich the Arabic novel has become over a period of some fifty years, beyond the better-known work of writers such as Naguib Mahfouz and Yusuf Idris. As such, the volume will serve as an introduction not only to the individual author but also to the development of Egyptian (and, more generally, Arabic) literature over the last half century.

Family, Citizenship and Islam
Author: Nilufar Ahmed
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317136535
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
A longitudinal, intersectional study of migrant women, this book examines the lives of first generation Bangladeshi migrants to the UK, considering the dynamic relationship between people and place. Shedding new light on a migrant population about which little is known, the author explores the experiences of women who left rural homes to live in London, speaking no English, with no experience of local customs and having to adjust to what would now be dramatically shrunken family sizes, within which they would act as bearers of culture and tradition. Based on research spanning a decade Family, Citizenship and Islam draws on qualitative interviews with over 100 women and examines questions of identity, belonging, citizenship and Britishness, religion, ageing, care, and the family. With attention to the fluidity of the experiences of the first generation of migration women, the book offers an alternative to much ethnographic research, which often offers only a 'snapshot' of a particular minority or migrant group as fixed and preserved in time. As such, Family, Citizenship and Islam will appeal to scholars of sociology, geography and anthropology with interests in migration and diaspora, citizenship, gender, religion, family and the lifecourse, and the ways in which these different aspects of a person's life come together to shape lived experience.

Ameer-ul-Kaunain (The Master of Worlds)

Book Description
Ameer-ul-Kaunain (The Master of Worlds) is a magnificent book by the most eminent Saint of Sub-continent and the king of knowers of Allah Sultan-ul-Arifeen Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo rehmat-ul-Allah alayh. As the title implies, if the reader reads this book with pure heart and perfect faith, it elevates him spiritually to the highest levels in both the worlds. Hazrat Sultan Bahoo has written this book while being himself at the level of “Ameer-ul-Kaunain”. The style he adopted while writing this book is entirely different from all his other books and is amazingly wonderful. It seems as if he is playing with words. Surprisingly, he uses same words in different manner to convey different meanings. Reader thinks that he is reading the same sentence again and again but if he ponders deeply, he understands new and different meaning from apparently similar sentences every time he reads them. The marvel of the book is that its each sentence contains ocean in a drop and compels the reader to reach its depth to understand the actual meaning. However, the deeper he goes the more he comes to know that every sentence reveals many different meanings which every reader understands according to his spiritual level.

Sufism-The Soul of Islam
Author: Sultan ul Ashiqeen Sultan Mohammad Najib ur Rehman
Publisher: Sultan ul Faqr Publications
ISBN: 9699795913
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 1026
Book Description
Sufism is a journey. A miraculous one. Filled with hurdles yet easy for those who are born pure and those who choose. It is the choices and not always the actions as they could be deceptive. Sufism is the spiritual and mystical aspect of Islam. The esoteric cosmos has every spiritual blessing, notion and trial. In the universe of Sufism, the destination is being One with the Divine Essence (tawhid) and the dear friend and leader on this path is the spiritual guide. Motivation and power to accomplish comes from loving Allah only, as Sultan Bahoo has famously said, “Only Allah! Everything other than Allah is lust.” The names Allah and Mohammad (Ism-e-Allah Zaat and Ism-e-Mohammad) are sustenance which strengthen the very soul of man. After all it is the journey of soul. Deep respect embedded in the heart for the family of Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) is like Noah’s Arc and the sacred Companions are guiding stars. The Mohammadan Assembly is the determining factor declaring one worthy to embark on the quest of Sufism or to demote or worse to forever halt. Wolves, brigands and the negative powers that drive one away are Satan, innerself (an-nafs) and the mortal world. Sharia is the door into this esoteric world. This journey of gnosis has its own set of guidelines. These can come in the form of inspiration, unveiling, waham (inward conversation with Hoo ھُو) and ilm-e-dawat (communication with sacred souls of shrines). This book is all and MORE! A must read for every spiritual traveller.

Ways of Seeking
Author: Emily Drumsta
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520390202
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. In Ways of Seeking, Emily Drumsta traces the influence of detective fiction on the twentieth-century Arabic novel. Theorizing a “poetics of investigation,” she shows how these novels, far from staging awe-inspiring feats of logical deduction, mock the truth-seeking practices on which modern exercises of colonial and national power are often premised. Their narratives return to the archives of Arabic folklore, Islamic piety, and mysticism to explore less coercive ways of knowing, seeing, and seeking. Drumsta argues that scholars of the Middle East neglect the literary at their peril, overlooking key critiques of colonialism from the intellectuals who shaped and responded through fiction to the transformations of modernity. This book ultimately tells a different story about the novel’s place in the constellation of Arab modernism, modeling an innovative method of open-ended inquiry based on the literary texts themselves.
