Money plays a fundamental and crucial role in any economic system. It is an extremely important part of our economic system. Money refers to that commodity which is accepted as a medium of exchange for goods and services, and no one can refuse to accept it. In ancient times, various commodities were used as currency, among them metals like gold and silver gained more popularity and remained in use as a medium of exchange for thousands of years. After that, a period came when instead of metals, the use of paper currency became prevalent, and to this day, paper currency is more popular and accepted worldwide. It is essential to understand the role of banks in creating artificial money, how it increases the supply of money, and what negative effects it has on the economy and nations. The current money system is entirely deceitful and deceptive, benefiting only a few individuals, while most developing countries and nations around the world are burdened by this artificial system. This article clarifies how money is being created in the modern era, who has the authority to create it, and what impact it has on our lives and financial system.

The Rising Trend of Islamophobia and Its Global Impacts: An Academic and Research Review

Dr Mohammad Islam — 2024-04-04

Islam is the religion of peace and protection for the the whole world and huminity. Abusiveness and oppression, all kinds of fraud, treachery, lies, adulteration and usury are forbidden in Islam. It is clear from the teachings of Qur'an and Sunnah that Islam is against all kinds of mischief, unrest, unjust killing, terrorism and atrocities. A study of any aspect of Seerah of the Prophet ﷺ reveals the fact that He ﷺ was the Prophet of peace and departed from the world after establishing peace in the world. People, influenced by the best manners of the Holy Prophet ﷺ and began to enter Islam in droves and enemities and hatreds began to disappear. Many westeren writers have also written that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ established peace in the world and before Him there was no peace and no law in the Arab. But unfortunately fear of Islam and false propaganda against Islam was started by the infidel, polytheists from the day one and this fear is still found among non-Muslims specially in the West to great extent which is called Islamophobia in modern sense. Due to Islamophobia, various attempts were made to link Islam with terrorism, which had major negative effects. In this research paper, the growing trend of Islamophobia at the global level will be specially evaluated in the present time. Apart from this, it will also be tried to take into consideration its effects, its causes, historical background and appropriate measures for remediation at the global level.

امام شوکانی ؒکے فقہی امتیازات و تفردات اور عصری استفادہ: (تحقیقی وتجزیاتی مطالعہ)

Dr. Shahzada Imran Ayub — 2024-01-15

Imam Shukani is considered as one of the great jurisprudents of his time. He gave only the Holy Quran and the Sunnah as a reference in the interpretation of rulings. The evidence of his jurisprudential insight is his numerous scholarly services, among which Neil Al-Awtar and Al-Sail Al-Jarar are prominent. He also has many distinctions in jurisprudential issues as according to him, the opinions of scholars and jurists should be seen as an ijtihadi opinion and not as a Shariah argument. He says that one's opinion should be accepted or rejected only on the basis of argument, and should not be influenced by the plurality of opinions. One should always act with justice and avoid partiality. The relationship with the rulers should be developed only so that the people can be reformed through them and not only to achieve personal interests by being flattered. He says that as much as possible the apparent meaning of arguments should be adopted. Apart from this, if we talk about some jurisprudential distinctions of Imam Shukani, then one of them is that the carcasses of animals that do not have blood are impure. No distribution of impurity is also proven in Shariah. Apart from water, purification can also be achieved with other items. A person who abandons prayer is a disbeliever and is obliged to kill. Jihad is always obligatory on every Muslim. It is not permissible to sell excess water, even if someone has stored it. The right of intercession is available only to the neighbor who is also on the way. So, some important distinctions of Imam Showkani are being discussed in this paper.

سلطنت عثمانیہ کے زوال میں مراعات خصوصی کا کردار

Dr Faizan Ahmed — 2024-06-24

The history of the world, especially in Islamic history, does not require an introduction to the Ottoman Empire. In the Islamic history, it was the established empire of the Turks, which held the distinction of being the longest-reigned empire. Its territories stretched across three continents; Asia, Europe, and Africa. In the late thirteenth century, this empire, which was established in Asia, began to be counted among the world's dominant powers within 150 years. By the sixteenth century ۔ it had become the most prestigious empire in terms of its vastness and dominion in the world. During this time, the Ottoman Turks were a central power. The sixteenth century seemed to be the century of the empire's zenith. It was possible for them not only to advance in the field of knowledge and wisdom but also to fulfill the responsibilities of leadership in the world of knowledge. However, contrary to this, the causes of decline and decay began to emerge among the Turks even during the time of their peak and progress. One important element among these factors is “special privileges". The terms "Capitulation" in English and "Imtiyazat" in Arabic have been used for these special privileges. These Special privileges played a decisive pivotal role in the decline of the Ottoman Empire by collaborating with external and foreign elements. Because of special concessions France, Britain, Russia, and other European countries obtained special economic, religious, and civic concessions within the boundaries of the Ottoman Empire for their governments and people. Using these special concessions, gradually, these countries began to weaken the political and economic strength of the Ottomans by surpassing the Ottoman's political and economic strength. As a result of these measures, the Ottoman Empire came to an end in the early decades of the twentieth century.

Cultural Diversity and Intellectual Fusion: Analyzing Abdul Hamid AbuSulayman’s Global Approach to Social Sciences

Jamil Akhtar — 2024-06-25

This paper discusses AbuSulayman’s transformative scholarship on the globalization of the social sciences with a focus on the connection between distinctiveness and cognition. It can be observed that AbuSulayman, a distinguished scholar, is among the most serious contributors to the current discourse on cultural dynamics and social understanding. The study seeks to discover these elementary concepts and establish his work’s impact by exploring his research objectives, methods, and findings. It examines how cultural diversity can respond to the challenges that dozens of knowledge integration in a single field entails, by applying AbuSulayman’s theoretical and methodological models. Specifically, this study employs the method of qualitative content analysis to analyze his writing to find out repeated themes and ideas. In this regard, using components of interdisciplinary science, the role of AbuSulayman in the interaction between the integration of knowledge and cultural diversity is revealed. It is concluded that his work emphasizes communication, respect, and acknowledgment of the native knowledge systems, and incorporation of Indigenous knowledge systems with techniques framed with sociological and anthropological theories; but following his philosophize, more research should be made to study the implications of his concepts to promote cross-cultural understanding in the globalized societies.

The teachings of the Prophet Seerah and his Companions on Religious Tolerance

Dr Makhdoom Muhammad Roshan Siddiqi — 2024-06-25

The studies based on evaluations are devoid of tolerance. The significance for religious tolerance in the community is emphasized in this study the paper. This essay examines the value of tolerance in the context of Hazrat Muhammad's (may peace be Upon Him) holy life by using a variety of case studies and references. When we describe tolerance, for example, as the ability to tolerate suffering in silence, we also provide alternative definitions or explanations. To put it another way, we may argue that tolerance is an act of compelling someone to change for the better rather than saying that it involves punishment. Furthermore, it has been said that Islamic teachings promote religious tolerance, whereby, eminent Muslim scholars expound upon the need of tolerance via various Ayyats (Verses), in addition to the historical religious occurrences of Sahaba and the Prophets. Similar to how Hazrat Muhammad (may peace be upon him) demonstrated tolerance on various occasions—even when he was in trouble—and how He now tolerates non-Muslims treating him harshly—through the various events within the life of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), he provides us with a comprehensive code of conduct, just as his tolerance toward Jews inspires us to live our lives in accordance with the lessons of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) in a practical way.

منهج الشنقيطي في تفسير القرآن بأقوال الصحابة والتابعين

Hafiz Abdul Majid — 2024-06-25

The last Holy Book of Allah Ta'ala is the Holy Quran. This great and holy book has been revealed in Arabic language to the last prophet of Allah, Muhammad ﷺ. The purpose of revelation of the Holy Qur'an is to tell people the straight path of their Lord Allah and to guide them in all matters of their life. This book was best understood by those who learned and understood it from Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and they are his Companions. After them are those who learned and understood from them and they are the Taabi'een. Therefore, the Tafsir described by them has been given the third rank by the Ummah after the Holy Qur'an and the Hadith. This is the third most authentic source of Tafsir e Qur'an. Since ancient times, the commentators adopted this method in their interpretations (Tafaseer), none of the interpretations of Bilamathur (تفسير بالمأثور) is free from it and this blessed series continues till now. Among the commentators who interpreted the Holy Qur'an through the sayings of Companions and Taabi'een is the great mujtahid, jurist and muhaddith, the great religious Islamic scholar Sheikh Muhammad Al-Amin al-Shanqati. Which has an important, famous and authentic Tafsir is: “Azwa al-Bayan fi Tafsir al-Qur'an by Qur'an”. In which, he has arranged to interpret the Holy Qur'an through the sayings of the Companions and Taabi'een, like other methods, and he adopted different and numerous methods for this excellent method. Is this tafsir really such a tafsir that can be called a modern model of Tafsir al-Qur'an according to Tafsir by sayings of the Companions and Taabi'een? And is this method of interpretation acceptable to the commentators in the Tafsir: “Azwa al-Bayan fi Tafsir al-Qur'an by Qur'an” of Imam al-Shanqiti? And how much material has he provided to his believers and students in his interpretation by using other ancient interpretations based on his memory? We will try to answer these and other similar questions in the following article. And at the same time, we will also briefly review the efforts of some other great commentators who interpret the Holy Quran according to this method, so that in the light of this we can clarify the position that this is the third best method of interpreting the Holy Quran. is to be interpreted through sayings of the Companions and Taabi'een and we can also formulate a remedy for some of the misconceptions that have been spread about this method.

رفاہ عامہ کا تصور معجزات نبوی کے تناظر میں

Abdul Qayum — 2024-06-25

This research explores the aspects of public welfare found in the Miracles of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). While these miracles were primarily created to prove and evidence the honesty of the Prophets and Messengers in their claims of Prophethood, they also embodied immense mercy and compassion. The Almighty Allah endowed these miracles upon the Prophets and Messengers not only as signs of their divine authority but also as solutions to the problems faced by people, highlighting their welfare aspects. The miracles of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) provided unparalleled examples of addressing both the spiritual and material needs of human beings. This study particularly emphasizes that one of the significant aspects of the miracles of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) was their contribution to public welfare for the people of his Ummah. Some miracles were bestowed upon individuals but held broader implications and benefits for humankind. This research aims to elucidate these aspects, demonstrating how the miracles served the dual purpose of affirming Prophethood and enhancing public welfare.

عربی زبان میں لغات پر ہونے والے کام کا جائزہ

Hamid Mehmood — 2024-06-25

Islamic Sharia is another name for the Quran and Hadith, which Allah Almighty revealed in the Arabic language. The primary interpreter of this was Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), whose language was also Arabic. Since the language of Sharia is Arabic, all related sciences and arts, such as exegesis (Tafsir), Quranic sciences (Ulum al-Quran), jurisprudence (Fiqh), principles of jurisprudence (Usul al-Fiqh), grammar (Nahw), morphology (Sarf), rhetoric (Ilm al-Ma'ani and Ilm al-Bayan), principles of Hadith (Usul al-Hadith), etc., were documented in Arabic. In other words, all the knowledge of Sharia exists in the Arabic language. Therefore, to understand it, one must attain proficiency in Arabic.

In any Arabic book, there are many words and scholarly terms that are not accessible to many readers. This is especially true in the books of early scholars, where there are countless words and terms whose correct meanings are not known to us. To understand and comprehend these difficult words, we need to refer to Arabic dictionaries.

اسلامی اور مغربی علمیات میں ذرائع علم کی بحث؛ ایک تجزیہ

Fahadullah s/o m yahya — 2024-08-23

Epistemology deals with the philosophical study of the nature, origin, and limits of human knowledge. Many of our intellectual and theoretical problems can be solved in a healthy way when the authenticity of the source of knowledge is appreciated by the opposition. There are usually four possible sources of human knowledge; Reasoning, Experimentation, Intuition and Divine Revelation. This essay examines the concept of knowledge in Islamic and Western Epistemologies, focusing particularly on the authenticity and significance of Divine Revelation as a source of knowledge. After establishing Revelation as the fundamental source of knowledge in Islamic scholarship, other means are also utilized to derive benefits. Through a comparative analysis of key thinkers and texts from both traditions, including the works of Shah Ismael Shah (Shaheed) and Imam Ibn Tamiya (R.A.) in Islamic philosophy, and the ideas of Pre-Socratic philosophers, Plato, Aristotle, Hegel and Descartes in Western philosophy, this essay examines the nature of knowledge, its sources, and the role of Divine Revelation in shaping human understanding. This essay argues that Divine Revelation is a legitimate and essential source of knowledge in Islamic epistemology, complementing and guiding the other three sources: Reason, Experience and Intuition. It highlights the differences and similarities between Islamic and Western thought on the sources of knowledge and demonstrates the significance of Divine Revelation in Islamic thought and its implications for contemporary debates in philosophy, theology, and interfaith dialogue.

Efforts of Fiqh Academy in Restoring Awqaf: A Research Review

Ayesha Liaqat — 2024-06-25

Awqaf is related to human welfare which was started before Islam but it has been given final form by Islam. All the endowments that have been established before the advent of Islam were from the benevolent people of the society. At the same time, where the Awqaf remained under the shadow of Islamic governments, they remained in their original state, but as soon as the Awqaf came under the influence of non-Islamic governments or the status of Muslims became a minority, then the local governments took over the Awqaf and changed their status to government treasures began to fill up instead of public welfare. In modern times, some endowments have become deserted or occupied in such a way that it is difficult to preserve them; Islamic Fiqh Academy India has played its key role to ensure their preservation and make them fruitful. Not only books are being written by this institution for the protection of endowment, but this institution also has scholars, preachers and consensus of the Ummah from all over the world to discuss the problems faced by endowment in its seminars. Condemnation of attempts to violate the sanctity of Babri Masjid and Awqaf throughout the world, including India, has been expressed through the Thirteenth Seminar of this Academy. Due to which the spirit of protection and defense of their holy places has been created in the hearts of Muslims.
