The Impact of Using the Hill Climbing Strategy on the Students' Academic Achievement in the College of Educational Sciences at Al-Hussein Bin Talal University in the Subject of the Prophetic Biography and its Teaching Methods

The study aimed to determine the impact of using the Hill Climbing strategy on the students' academic achievement in the College of Educational Sciences at Al-Hussein Bin Talal University in the subject of the Prophetic Biography and its teaching methods. The study sample consisted of 80 students from the College of Educational Sciences studying the Prophetic Biography and its teaching methods during the second semester of the academic year 2021-2022 at Al-Hussein Bin Talal University. The students were divided into two groups: the control group, consisting of 40 students, who learned using traditional methods, and the experimental group, also consisting of 40 students, who learned using the Hill Climbing strategy. The researchers prepared an achievement test to measure the academic achievement of the students in the topic of Prophetic Biography and its teaching methods. The results of the study showed statistically significant differences between the two study groups in the students' level of achievement, in favor of the experimental group that learned using the Hill Climbing strategy. The study recommends the necessity and importance of employing the Hill Climbing strategy in teaching other Islamic education subjects such as Jurisprudence and its teaching methods and Creed and its teaching methods. The study also recommends conducting comparative studies between the Hill Climbing strategy and other modern teaching strategies.

A Historical Exploration of the Selected Writing Trends on As-Sīrah An-Nabawiyyah (Prophetic Biography) from the First Century of Islam to the Contemporary Times

This research paper seeks to explore trends or tendencies in as-Sīrah an-Nabawiyyah (Prophetic Biography) emphasizing the historical investigation of selected writings on this subject from the first century of Islam until contemporary times. Muslims and others find exemplary qualities in every aspect of the Prophet’s life that inspire them to love him, understand his sayings, and follow his deeds, and accept all his decisions. Also, Muslim scholars rely on the Prophetic Sīrah to understand and explain the Islamic Sources, al-Qur’an and as-Sunnah. Initially, most works on Sīrah focused on the composition of the Prophet’s biography, and subsequently, their writers became interested in recording its events in separate books. This study aims to highlight the writing trends on the Prophetic Sīrah throughout Islamic history, and then, examine selected writings addressing the demands and concerns of their times. This work starts with an introduction, and then, continues the discussion on the literal and technical definition of the Prophetic Sīrah, the phases of its writing trends, firstly, from the first century to the third century, secondly, from the fourth century to the golden age of Orientalism, and, lastly, from nineteenth century to contemporary age. This study arrives at insightful findings that for each age, there has been a trend or tendency in the writing of the Prophetic Sīrah according to the demands and concerns of the time. The researchers propose that the demands of modern-day writing trends on the Prophetic Sīrah include rhetorical (Kalāmī), philosophical (Falsafī), and social (Ijtimā’ī) approaches.

علاقة الحديث النفسي المنسوب للنبي ﷺ بوضع الحديث كتاب (كتابٌ فيه ما فيه) لمولانا جلال الدين الرومي (672هـ) نموذجاً: دراسة تأصيلية نقدية

This research is an attempt to trace the origins of the psychological hadith of the Prophet, which is the information about what is in the soul of the Prophet ﷺ. Also, it highlights its relationship with both of the narration of hadith in its meaning and Hadith’ Maudu (Fabricated). The importance of this research lies in the fact that it is a defense of the prophetic hadith and a denunciation of lying about the Prophet ﷺ. The research aims to introduce the psychological hadith of the Prophet ﷺ, to know what is acceptable and rejected among it, and its relationship with fabricated hadith, and to determine the reasons behind its popularity and impacts. In this research, three methods were adopted: inductive, analytical, and critical, taking the book (Kitab Fihi Ma Fihi) by Jalal al-Din al-Rumi (d. 672 AH) as an applied model for critical study. The research concluded that the classification of psychological Hadith vary between the highest levels of acceptance, such as the Mutawatir, and the lowest levels of rejection, such as the fabricated, and it classified the most important reasons for its popularity as following: The tolerance in talking about the prophetic biography, the creative styles in which it is narrated, and the concealment of the psychological hadith of the Prophet ﷺ, and its circulation in the speech of scholars. The research, also, highlighted its important impacts which are allowing liars to lying about the prophet ﷺ, attributing prosaic speech to him, attributing inappropriate thoughts to him, diminishing his prestige in the hearts of the public, and opening the door to those who challenge him and his purified Sunnah. The research recommended the importance of studying the psychological hadith in the books of the Prophetic biography, and with careful research of hadiths that are fabricated in the books of Sufism.

Beyond Oral and Written Prophecy

Abstract This article examines performance as part of the prophetic and revelatory in ancient Jewish literature. The body of the article centres on the so-called “prophetic actions” within the biblical corpus. Scholarship’s use of this category has highlighted nonverbal performance as a part of prophecy but raises questions regarding the efficacy of these varied actions as well as their distinction from written or spoken prophecy. Here I reapply J.L. Austin’s speech act theory to further examine their function. Isaiah 20:1–6 and Jeremiah 51:59–64, my central case studies, demonstrate not only the variety among these performances but also how interwoven they are with prophetic biography, writing, and speech. Exploring such phenomena through this more flexible lens further illuminates the continued significance of performance and prophecy in the Second Temple period, which the article demonstrates using 11QPsalmsa and the Exagoge of Ezekiel.

Politicization of television talk shows: an analytical study of Allewan program

This study aims to investigate how television talk shows are politically employed, especially in times of political conflict between Qatar on one side and Saudi Arabia on the other. Its focus is on AlLewan program that was broadcast on Rotana Khalejia channel during Ramadan 2019. The program includes 29 episodes. The study finds that Alshawa [the awakening] Movement, Qatar, the Saudi opposition, and the Muslim Brotherhood are the top issues addressed in the program. Main actors of the discourse in the program include Osama bin Laden, Saudi opposed Saad Al-Faqih and Mohammed Almasa’ari, and the Saudi crown prince. The most emotionally loaded words and phrases are used to construct a call for facing the state, to ascertain the domination of Allah, and to impose awakening guardianship on the society. The program uses a number of communication strategies and techniques, including communication process strategy, confrontation and accusation, and the showing of clips from previous videos. The program applies several argumentative tools related to the Alshawa, Muslim Brotherhood, Qatar, Islamic cassette tape, the Saudi Crown Prince. These tools include the narrative technique, the use of historical narratives, citations from Qur'anic verses as well as hadiths and prophetic biography.

THE JUDGE ABDUL JABBAR HAMATHANI (415 A.H. /1024 A.D.) AND HIS EFFORTS IN PROPHETIC BIOGRAPHY THROUGH HIS BOOK " PROPHECY EVIDENCE STABILIZATION"

This study paper will address important aspects of the prophetic biography presented by Judge Abdul-Jabbar in his book Confirmation of Prophecies; He was devoted to report the validity of the Prophet's prophecy through his real-sense miracles and invisible distinctive features about the absentee, as they stated in the Holy Quran or the Prophet's hadith that he followed to show its credibility of historicity.

Sibt Ibn al-ʿAcemī (d. 841/1438) and His Expounding on Prophetic Biography Entitled Nūr an-Nibrās

Sıbt İbnü’l-Acemî (ö. 841/1438) yazdığı eserlerle, Hz. Peygamber’in sünnet ve siretinin daha iyi anlaşılmasına önemli katkılarda bulunmuş âlimlerden biridir. Bu makalede İbnü’l-Acemî’nin hayatı ve İbn Seyyidinnâs’ın (ö. 734/1334) siyer alanındaki ‘Uyûnü’l-eser fî fününi’l-megâzî ve’ş-şemâ’îl ve’s-siyer adlı eserine şerh olarak yazdığı Nûrü’n-nibrâs ‘alâ Sîretî İbn Seyyidinnâs adlı eseri incelenmiştir. Bu çalışma; İbnü’l-Acemî’nin yaşadığı döneme ve hayatına ışık tutmak, ilmî çevresini tanıtmak ve eserlerini tespit etmek, siyer şerhleri arasında önemli bir yere sahip olan Nûrü’n-nibrâs’ı içerik, üslûp, yöntem ve kaynaklar yönünden incelemesini hedeflemektedir. 
 İbnü’l-Acemî, Bahrî Memlüklerin son devresi ile Burcî Memlüklerin ilk devresine denk gelen 753-841/1352-1438 yılları arasındaki dönemde yaşamıştır. Bu dönemde devlet iç çekişmelerle uğraşırken dışardan da Timur’un (771-807/1370-1405) saldırılarına maruz kalmış, bu saldırılar sırasında İbnü’l-Acemî’nin yaşadığı Halep tahrip edilmiş, kendisi de esir düşmüş ve yazdığı eserlerinin bir kısmını kaybetmiştir. İbnü’l-Acemî’nin yaşadığı dönem siyasi açıdan çalkantılı olsa da ilmî açıdan verimli, ilmî faaliyetlerin ve âlimlerin desteklendiği, birçok kaynak eserin yazıldığı ve birçok bilim adamının yetiştiği bir dönemdir.
 İbnü’l-Acemî, 12 Receb 753 (3 Eylül 1352) yılında Halep’te doğdu. Küçük yaşlarında babasını kaybetti. Eğitimine memleketi olan Halep’te başladı, ardından Kahire, İskenderiye, Kudüs ve Dimyât gibi dönemin ilim merkezlerine ilmî seyahatler gerçekleştirdi. İbnü’l-Mülakkın (ö. 804/1401), Bulkınî (ö. 805/1403), Irâkî (ö. 806/1404) ve Nûreddin el-Heysemî (ö. 807/1405) gibi hocalardan ilim tahsil etti. İbn Hatîb en-Nâsıriyye (ö. 843/1440), İbn Hacer el-Askalânî (ö.852/1449) ve Mekke tarihçisi Necmüddîn İbn Fehd (ö. 885/1480) gibi meşhur öğrenciler yetiştirdi.
 İbnü’l-Acemî, kıraat, fıkıh ve lugat gibi ilimleri tahsil etmiş fakat asıl mesaisini hadis ve siyer alanına harcamıştır. O, Kütüb-i sitte’nin anlaşılmasına katkı sağlayacak önemli şerh ve haşiyeler kaleme aldığı gibi hadis ricâli konusunda da önemli eserler kaleme almıştır. Siyer alanında Kâdî İyâz’ın (ö. 544/1149) eş-Şifâ ve İbn Seyyidinnâs’ın Uyûnü’l-eser adlı eserine yazdığı şerhlerle de siyer ilmine önemli katkılar sunmuştur. Fakat ne yazık ki kaynaklarda kendisine nisbet edilen birçok eserin günümüze ulaşıp ulaşmadığı tespit edilememiştir. Ulaşanların bir kısmı da halen tahkik edilmeyi beklemektedir. Çalışmamızda İbnü’l-Acemî’ye yanlışlıkla nisbet edilen bazı eserler de tespit edilmiştir.
 Siyer şerhleri arasında önemli bir yere sahip olan Nûrü’n-nibrâs, günümüze eksiksiz olarak ulaşmış ve ilk defa 2014 yılında basılmıştır. İbnü’l-Acemî bu eserinde, Uyûnü’l-eser’de muğlak gördüğü yerleri açıklamış, eksik gördüğü yerlere ilavelerde bulunmuştur. Kelimelerin okunuş ve anlamları hakkında da bilgi veren müellif, siyer ve tarih alanı ile ilgili terimleri açıklamış, hadis ıstılahları hakkında önemli bilgiler vermiştir. Ayet ve hadislerle istişhâtta bulunmuştur. Gerekli gördüğü yerlerde metinde geçen bazı cümlelerin i‘râbını yapmıştır. Konuyla ilgili varsa kendi dönemindeki gözlemlerini de aktarmayı ihmal etmemiştir. Kitabın içeriğine bakıldığında dikkat çeken önemli bir husus da müellifin yaşadığı dönemde siyere dair tartışılan konulara dikkat çekmesi ve o dönemde yaşayan âlimlerin konuyla ilgili görüşlerini aktarmasıdır. O, Uyûnü’l-eser’de ismi geçen şahsiyetlerin biyografilerini büyük oranda vermeye çalışmış ancak bu konuda fazla tekrara düşmüştür.
 İbnü’l-Acemî’nin eserinde takip ettiği üslubun en belirgin özelliği, metinde ismi geçen kişilerin isim, lakap ve künyelerinin doğru okunuşuna ehemmiyet vermesi, hadis tahricleri üzerinde titizlikle durması, sahâbe ve hadis ricali hakkında doyurucu bilgiler vermesi ve okuyucuya zengin kaynaklardan özet bilgiler aktarmasıdır.

Silent Sources of the History of Epidemics in the Islamic World: Literature on Ṭāʿūn/Plague Treatises

From 1347 onwards, new literature emerged in the Islamic and Western worlds: the Ṭā‘ūn [Plague] Treatises. The literature in Islamdom was underpinned by three things: (i) Because the first epidemic was a phenomenon that had been experienced since the birth of Islam, ṭā‘ūn naturally occurred on the agenda of hadith sources, prophetic biography, and historical works. This agenda was reflected in the treatises as discussions around epidemics, particularly plague, as well as the fight against disease in general in a religious and jurisprudential framework. (ii) Works aimed at diagnosing the plague and dealing with various aspects of it tried to explain disease on the basis of Galenic-Avicennian medicine within the framework of miasma theory, thus deriving their basis from this medical paradigm. (iii) Finally, the encounter with such a brutal illness prompted a quest for all possible remedies, including the occultist culture. This background shaped the language and content of the treatises at different levels. This article first evaluates the modern studies on plague treatises written in the Islamic world. Then, it surveys the Islamic historical sources in order to pin down the meaning they assign to the concepts of wabā’ [epidemic disease] and ṭā‘ūn [plague]. Certain medical works that were the resources for medical doctrines and terminology for plague treatises are also evaluated with a focus on these two concepts. Thus, the aim of this survey is to understand the general conception of epidemic disease and plague in the Islamic world before the Black Death (1346-1353). I discuss and analyze the characteristics of the Ṭā‘ūn literature, which constitutes the main subject of the article and present a database on the literature. While the works from the Mamluk and Ottoman periods constitute a continuous tradition in some respects, Ottoman treatises differ from the Mamluk works in terms of certain features, especially content. Although this study touches on the common aspects of the works from the two periods, it instead analyzes this literature with a focus on points where the two traditions diverge.

Hz. Peygamber’in Yahudi Bir Kadın Tarafından Zehirlenmesi Hadisesi Hakkındaki Rivayetler ve Kur’ân Dışı Vahiyle İlgisi

There are certain narratives in hadith and siyer (prophetic biography) sources of an event that a Jewish woman wanted to poison and kill the Prophet Muhammad in the days leading up to the conquest of Khaybar. These narratives, as far as can be determined were conveyed from the sahabah named Abu Hurairah, Anas b. Malik, Jabir b. ʿAbdullah, Abu Lubaibah and Abu Sa`id al-Khudri. There is also a mursal narrative conveyed from ʿAbdurrahman b. Kaʿb b. Malik. These narratives are seen to carry significant wording and content differences, and have excess and incomplete information. These differences in accounts appear to be a harbinger of certain amendments of the narrators when they recounted the information. However, considering all the accounts together, it is understood that it is possible to reach a realistic conclusion about the poisoning of the Prophet Muhammad. On the other hand, the detail in some of the accounts that the poisonous mutton informed its being poisonous has also been associated with a non-Qur'anic revelation revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. Although there are also those who refuse the idea, the idea of non-Qur'anic revelation has been accepted in the school of thought of Sunni Muslims in general. Nevertheless, the argument that the accounts of the poisoning of the Prophet Muhammad provide the basis for the claim of non-Quranic revelation seems open to discussion. In this study, the accounts in question will be evaluated together to determine the relationship between the essence of the matter and the non-Qur’anic revelation.

Ballaghanā ʿan an-Nabī: early Basran and Omani Ibāḍī understandings of sunna and siyar, āthār and nasab

AbstractThis paper explores the usages of four concepts – sunna, sīra, āthār, and nasab – mainly in early Ibāḍī epistles, but also in other types of Ibāḍī literature, to examine how early Ibāḍīs understood the legacy of the Prophet Muḥammad, and their relation to that legacy. It argues that before the sixth/twelfth century a notion of communal pedigree occupied pride of place in early Ibāḍī conceptualizations of legality and legitimacy. Thus, Ibāḍī sunna was “communal sunna”. The accumulated weight of Ibāḍī tradition – what is known as āthār in Ibāḍī literature – operated authoritatively as a counterpart to sunna; and the Ibāḍī siyar tradition did not focus on the Prophet exclusively, but rather described the scholarly community as an imagined whole. Moreover, Ibāḍīs explicitly articulated their communal pedigree in “teacher lines” (called nasab al-dīn or nasab al-islām) in Omani literature, and through the structure of their ṭabaqāt/siyar works in North Africa. Appreciating the importance of this communal pedigree, and the nexus of concepts through which it was articulated, helps us to understand the relative lack of emphasis placed on collecting and documenting ḥadīth (Ibāḍīs employ ḥadīth, but they did not use isnāds, nor did they appear to have a ḥadīth collection until the sixth/twelfth century), as well as the general absence of Prophetic biography among them (which also does not appear until the sixth/twelfth century).

Besteli Mevlid-i Efdal

Osmanlı devrinden günümüze Anadolu’da mevlid yazma ve okuma geleneği devam et-mektedir. Süleyman Çelebi’nin yazdığı Vesîletü’n-Necât’ın hem kendisi hem de başka mûsikîşinâlar tarafından bestelendiği ifade edilmektedir. Bunun haricinde başka “Beste-li Mevlid”lerin olduğu da bilinmektedir. “Besteli Mevlid”lerden biri de Konya’nın Doğan-hisar ilçesinde 1869 yılında doğmuş ve 1939 yılında Konya’da vefat etmiş olan Muham-med İzzeddin Doğanhisarî’nin yazdığı Mevlid-i Efdal’dir. Muhammed İzzeddin Doğanhisarî, Doğanhisar’da başladığı eğitimini Konya, İstanbul, Şam ve Kahire’de devam ettirmiştir. Doğanhisarî’nin Mısır’da Ezher Medresesi’nde okurken mûsikî eğitimi aldığı tahmin edilmektedir. Mevlid-i Efdal, Doğanhisarî tarafından belli bir makam ve usûl/ritim ile bestelenmiştir. Doğanhisarî, Mevlid-i Efdal’i tefsir, hadis, fıkıh ve siyer gibi ilimlerden faydalanarak yaz-dığını ifade etmektedir. Doğanhisarî’nin tahminen 1930 yılında yazdığı Mevlid-i Efdal’i besteleyerek öğretmesi ve merasimlerde okunmasını sağlamasının sebebi, halka Al-lah’ın varlığı ve birliğini, Hz. Muhammed’in (s.a.v.) hayatını, İslâm akâid ve ahlâkını öğ-retmek istemesidir. Bir mukaddime, dört fasıl ve bir duâ bölümünden oluşan Mevlid-i Efdal, tarafımızca der-lenerek notaya alınmış ve istifadeye sunulmuştur. Doğanhisar’da hâlen solo ve koro şek-linde okunmakta olan Mevlid-i Efdal, Türk Din Mûsikîsi kültür ve repertuarına katkı sağ-layacağı gibi “Besteli Mevlid”e de orijinal bir örnektir.

The Research Methodology & Trends in Female Seerah Writer

Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, is a role model for all mankind. In every domain of life, one may find the best shining example to follow. For this reason, it has always been an extremely important practice of Muslim Scholars to write prophetic biography. Many Muslim scholars have contributed by means of books of Seerah (Biography) and provided guidance in connection with modern challenges and conditions. Most of the known writers are male, however there are many female writers in the contemporary world who have been engaged in contributing to Biographical Studies. The article is an effort to analyze the contemporary work on Seerah done by the women scholars. We aim to examine the features, research methodology and the trends in the work done on the Prophetic Biography

بلوچستان میں سیرت نگاری کامختصر جائزہ

In the Arabic language the word sīra or sīrat (Arabic: سيرة‎) comes from the verb sāra (Present tense: yasīru), which means to travel or to be on a journey.A person’s sīra is that person’s journey through life, or biography, encompassing their birth, events in their life, manners and characteristics, and their death. In modern usage it may also refer to a person's resume. It is sometimes written as "seera", "sirah" or "sirat", all meaning "life" or "journey". In Islamic literature, the plural form, siyar, could also refer to the rules of war and dealing with non-Muslims. In Islam, Al-sīra al-Nabawiyya (Prophetic biography). Sīrat Rasūl Allāh (Life of the Messenger of Allah) or Seerah are the traditional Muslim biographies of Muhammad from which, in addition to the Quran and trustable Hadiths, most historical information about his life and the early period of Islam is derived. This article attempts to briefly review the Seerah Writing in Balochistan. Especially the Introduction and services of those People who have performed the service of Seerah Writing has also been provided.

علاج مشكلات اللجوء في ضوء لجوء الصحابة

There is an excellent pattern for us in the life of the Prophet (PBUH), we take gaudiness in the solution of our everyday problems. 
 Among these problems the problem of asylum, which has spread and has become apparent in the world in general, and in the Islamic world in particular, and this problem has been greatly complicated. We find in the prophetic biography asylum has occurred in the Meccan era, when some of the companions  went to Abyssinia, and took shelter in a non-Muslim country. This migration to Abyssinia is one of the most famous and important phenomena of asylum in Islamic history, which is consider the first political asylum of Muslims to a non-Muslim Country.
 We can learn from this migration and find some solutions to the problem of asylum in the present era. 
 This study will contribute in the solution of the problem of Muslim minorities in the non-Muslim countries. This study will help the scholars of international law and humanitarian law in their research.

Diyarbekrî ve Tarihçiliği

In this article, Diyarbakri’s life and works will be discussed and then his work, titled Taʾrīkh al-khamis fi ahvâli anfas nafis, will be summarized in terms of method and content. Hussain b. Muḥammad al-Diyarbakri who is among historians in XVIth century is one of the most important authors of Sīra (Prophetic Biography) with his work titled Taʾrīkh al-khamis fi ahvâli anfas nafis, in addition to his duties as a qadi (muslim judge), Skhaikh al-haram and Mudarris. There is little information about his life in the sources, in which the most of these information are mere repetition. He is a scholar and versatile genius who worked as a Qāḍī in Mecca and Medina as well as performing duties of Mudarris for Sulaymaniyya Madrasa in Mecca and Skhaikh al-haram of Mecca. His work titled Taʾrīkh al-khamis fi ahvâli anfas nafis is an important work that is of importance and needs to be analyzed because of its use of resources and the rich narrations it contains. In this study, we will try to examine Diyarbakri’s life and works, which is almost never studied in our country, and his historiography within the framework of Taʾrīkh al-khamis and importance in the Islamic history.

Esbâb-ı Nüzûl Rivayetlerinin Vakıayla Uyum Sorunu :Ka‘b b. Eşref Örneği

Kur’an’ın anlamını doğru tespit ve te’vil etmek çabasında kullanılacak araçlardan biri de nüzûl vasatı ile esbâb-ı nüzûl rivayetlerine vukûfiyet ve bunları doğru tahlil etmek için isabetli bir yaklaşımı benimsemektir. Âyetlerin tefsirinde sahip olduğumuz kanaatlerin ve açıklamaların birçoğu esbâb-ı nüzûl rivayetlerine dayanmaktadır. Bu rivayetlerin Kur’an’ın muhtevasına, hadis usulüne, rivayet kalıplarına, siyerle uyumuna göre değerlendirilmesi gerektiği şeklinde görüşler serdedilmiştir. Mesela Medineli Yahudilerden Ka’b b. Eşref’in Bedir sonrasında öldürüldüğü kabul edilmekle birlikte ismi bu tarihten çok sonra nazil olan ayetlerin te’vilinde konuyla ilgili rivayetler nakledilmektedir. Tarihsel açıdan bu çelişkili durum esbâb-ı nuzûl rivayetlerinin tarihî vakıa ile uyumunu araştırmanın önemini göstermektedir. Bu makalede yukarıda zikrettiğimiz hususları Ka’b b. Eşref örneği üzerinden ele alarak, kaynaklardaki bilgileri analitik olarak değerlendirmeye çalıştık. Sonuç olarak konuyla ilgili diğer tartışmalara girmeden tarihî bakış açısıyla rivayetleri tarihe ve zamana uyum açısından değerlendirerek, selefin kastı doğru anlaşılmadığı ve tarihi tutarlılığa yeteri kadar dikkat edilmediği için isminin vefatından sonra nazil olan birçok ayetin esbab-ı nüzûlünde zikredildiğini tespit ettik.
