The Talmud and Talmudic Philosophy: Origins, Legal Thought, Ethics, And Intellectual Traditions in Judaism
type: item
description: The two Talmuds one from Jerusalem, the other from Babylonia are the very foundation of rabbinic Judaism. Composed between the third and eighth centuries CE, they took a biblical faith whose central sanctuary, the Second Temple, lay in ruins and turned it into a civilization driven by law, learning, and community. This article follows the rise of the Oral Torah, the literary design of the Mishnah and Gemara, the interpretive rules that power talmudic reasoning, and the philosophical tensions running through the Talmud’s legal and narrative strands (Halakha and Aggadah). The argument here is that talmudic philosophy is not a formal metaphysical system but a unique kind of practical reasoning dialogical, grounded in precedent, at ease with irresolvable disagreement, and deeply concerned with justice, compassion, human dignity, and free will. The article also looks at talmudic teachings on education, economic ethics, gender, charity, and peace; compares talmudic dialectic with Greek philosophy and Roman legal traditions; and explores the Talmud’s lasting impact on medieval Jewish thinkers, especially Maimonides, as well as on modern legal, hermeneutical, and interfaith conversations. It ends by reflecting on the Talmud’s ongoing importance for comparative religion, legal studies, and intellectual history, presenting it as a living text that still shapes Jewish self understanding and offers a distinctive model of religious legal pluralism.

Significance of Integrated Subsidiary Functions of the Mosque and Its Inclusive Relationship to City
type: item
description: The mosque is a building typology that is central to the socio-political representation of Muslim World, carrying forth traditions and their interpretations. Socio-political dynamics influence mosque architecture over history and highlighting their essential role in society and cities, ranging from mosques that acted as ‘centers of civilizational imagination’ of the Muslim world to basic prayer spaces, community spaces and monumental mosques and complexes. Varying from singular structures for worship to complexes, the architecture and craft of mosque making and ornamentation has received much attention given its significance as a nerve center for the Muslim ummah. Contrastingly, the past fifty years have seen a trend of construction of mosques built in cities with clear sectoral division and management. Their current pattern of operation, management and ownership creates a disconnect between the global worldview of Muslim ummah and spiritual teachings of the religion. The following paper debates on why some mosques were more influential over others, referring to their socio-political dynamics of management and influence and the reasons for a larger sphere of influence in cities and in the Muslim World. Selecting four mosques built at crucial time periods in history, the paper charts an evolution of the relationship between the socio-political situation, socio-cultural use and organization of the mosque and complex attached. Using literature and some contemporary case analysis of mosques in Pakistan and Karachi city, the paper aims to bring out the reasons for the change in context relationship of mosque architecture and the need to broaden view, create inclusivity and tolerance in attitudes for addressing the contemporary issues. The paper thus aims to highlight that the mosque in general no longer plays a crucial role in establishing global Muslim unity, inclusivity, addressing immediate and long-term community needs. The hypothesis is developed largely through a l…

The Objectives Resolution: A Candle Light For The Islamic Provisions In The Future Constitutions Of Pakistan
type: item
description: Objectives Resolution is one of the most debatable documents in the constitutional history of Pakistan. It is presenting an amalgamation of both western and Islamic concept of sovereignty with the practical interconnection between Islam and Democracy. This interaction between Islam and western democracy in the political and constitutional development of the country although started a heated debated yet it successfully paved the way for the Islamic provisions in the future constitutions of Pakistan. The central problem of this study is to trace and analyzed this interaction of Islam and democracy and to examine the Objectives Resolution as a foundation document for the provision of Islamic injunctions in the constitutions of Pakistan. Current study is qualitative in nature based upon both primary and secondary sources like debates and discussion on Objectives Resolution in Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, books, articles published in various journals. This research work provides that how the Objectives Resolution presents a very significant model to demonstrate a delicate compatibility between Islam and the western democracy by discussing its prose and corns in the constitutional history of Pakistan.

The Objectives of Sharia (Maqasid al-Sharia) between Authenticity and Renewal: A Comparative Study of the Ideas of Tahir Ibn Ashur and Allal al-Fassi
type: item
description: The Objectives of Sharia (Maqasid al-Sharia), the fundamental philosophy and spiritual core of Islamic legislation, were historically confined to the traditional Five Objectives (al-Maqasid al-Khamsah) defined by Imam al-Shatibi. However, the complex civilizational and political challenges of the contemporary era necessitated a comprehensive intellectual expansion of this field. This paper presents a comparative and analytical study of the reformist theories of two great 20th-century scholars: Muhammad al-Tahir Ibn Ashur and Allal al-Fassi, who successfully shifted the scope of Maqasid from the individual sphere to the collective, political, and societal levels. A comparative and qualitative analysis of their foundational works, Maqasid al-Shari’ah al-Islamiyyah and Maqasid al-Shari’ah al-Islamiyyah wa Makarimuha, demonstrates that while both aimed to harmonize Islamic law with modernity, a clear methodological difference in focus exists: Ibn Ashur’s expansion centered on legal and systemic reform and the Preservation of the Order of the Nation (Hifz Nizam al-Ummah), whereas Allal al-Fassi placed greater emphasis on social development, the Cultivation of the Earth(‘Imarat al-Ard), and moral virtues(Makarim). This research clarifies the convergence and divergence between these two renewal models, offering a fresh theoretical perspective for addressing contemporary issues.

Understanding the Theory of Maqasid al-Shariah and Its Contemporary Interpretations
type: item
description: This article examines the theory of Maqasid al-Shariah (the objectives of Islamic law), focusing on its conceptual foundations, methodological development, and contemporary interpretations. The study begins by outlining the classical understanding of Maqasid, as articulated by early scholars such as al-Ghazali and al-Shatibi, who emphasized the preservation of essential human interests, including religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property. It then explores how this objectives-based framework functioned as a guiding principle for legal reasoning (ijtihad) within traditional Islamic jurisprudence. The article further analyzes modern reinterpretations of Maqasid al-Shariah in response to changing social, political, and economic realities. Contemporary scholars have expanded the scope of Maqasid to include values such as human dignity, justice, freedom, welfare, and good governance, arguing that these aims are consistent with the spirit of Islamic law. By engaging with issues such as human rights, bioethics, gender justice, and public policy, modern Maqasid-based approaches seek to bridge the gap between normative Islamic principles and contemporary challenges. The study concludes that the theory of Maqasid al-Shariah offers a dynamic and flexible framework for understanding Islamic law, enabling it to remain relevant and responsive in the modern world while maintaining its ethical and spiritual foundations.

Intellectual Expansion and Contemporary Applications of Maqasid al-Shari'ah: A Comparative Study of the Thoughts of Ibn Ashur and Allal al-Fassi
type: item
description: Maqasid al-Shari’ah constitute the fundamental philosophy and spiritual core of Islamic jurisprudence, which historically remained largely confined to the traditional al-Maqasid al-Khamsah defined by Imam al-Shatibi. However, the complex political, social, and civilizational challenges of the contemporary era have necessitated a comprehensive intellectual expansion and restructuring of this field. This paper presents a comparative and analytical study of the ideas of two prominent 20th-century reformers: Muhammad al-Tahir ibn Ashur and Allal al-Fasi. Both scholars successfully moved the scope of Maqasid from the individual and ritualistic domain to the collective, political, and societal spheres. Employing a qualitative and comparative methodology, the study critically analyzes their seminal primary works: Maqasid al-Shari’ah al-Islamiyyah (Ibn Ashur) and Maqasid al-Shari’ah al-Islamiyyah wa Makarimuha (Al-Fasi). The central argument (thesis) is that while both reformers aimed to harmonize Islamic law with modernity, their respective methodological priorities and emphasis differ significantly. The analysis demonstrates that Ibn Ashur’s intellectual expansion primarily focused on legal and systemic reform and the concept of Hifz Nizam al-Ummah (Preservation of the Order of the Nation), whereas Allal al-Fasi concentrated on social development, ‘Imarat al-Ard (Cultivation/Development of the Earth), and the ethical dimension (Makarim). This research clarifies the shared ground and divergence between these two modern models of Maqasid al-Shari’ah, offering a fresh theoretical perspective for addressing contemporary issues.

Bay al-Sarf and Its Contemporary Applications in Light of Imam Muhammad’s Seminal Work al-Hujjah ala Ahl al-Madinah
type: item
description: This research examines the classical Islamic contract of Bay al-Sarf (currency exchange), analyzing its foundational principles and their relevance to modern financial systems. Drawing on the authoritative juristic framework presented in Imam Muhammad al-Shaybani’s seminal work al-Hujjah ala Ahl al-Madinah, the study explores key conditions of the contract, including immediate possession (qabd), the prohibition of speculation, and the avoidance of uncertainty (gharar). The paper evaluates these classical principles in relation to contemporary financial practices such as foreign exchange (forex) trading, digital banking, and cryptocurrencies. The analysis concludes that while spot transactions involving immediate settlement may comply with the requirements of Bay al-Sarf, many speculative and deferred currency transactions conflict with its strict conditions. The study ultimately calls for the integration of these classical juristic principles into modern Islamic finance regulations in order to establish Shariah-compliant standards suited to evolving digital and global currency markets.

The Concept of Power-Sharing in Islamic Political Thought: An Analytical Study
type: item
description: This analytical study explores the concept of power-sharing in Islamic political thought through an exegetical examination of the Quran (via a interpretive analysis of the verses in Surah Yusuf), the Prophetic Sunnah (the practical examples of the Migration to Abyssinia and the Constitution of Medina), the historical period of the Rightly Guided Caliphs (based on the principles of Shura, accountability, and popular consent), and the ideas of contemporary Muslim scholars such as Rashid al-Ghannushi, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, Wahbah al-Zuhayli, Muhammad Hashim Kamali, and Abul A’la Maududi, investigating the scriptural legitimacy and modern application of this theory. The research reveals that the Quran and Sunnah provide legitimacy for sharing power with non-Islamic governments based on justice and public interest, while the Constitution of Medina established a clear tradition of political partnership grounded in mutual equality and collective justice in a multi-religious society. Although this was reflected practically during the Rashidun Caliphate in the form of Shura and accountability, the concept did not find a systematic form in later juristic traditions. However, the aforementioned contemporary scholars have revived this concept of power-sharing through renewed ijtihad, proving that it is, in fact, a requirement of the Maqasid al-Shari’ah (Objectives of Islamic Law) and Islamic ethics.

The Prophetic Statements Regarding Women’s Specific Issues and the Derived Rulings
type: item
description: This article presents a comprehensive study of specific Islamic legal rulings related to women, focusing on three important physiological conditions: hayd (menstruation), nifas (postnatal bleeding), and istihadah (irregular bleeding). Drawing primarily on the authentic traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the paper carefully analyzes key hadith texts and their legal interpretations as established by classical scholars. It examines the distinctions made by the Prophet between these types of bleeding and explains how those distinctions form the basis for rulings concerning ritual purity, prayer, fasting, marital relations, and other aspects of worship and daily life. The article also evaluates the methodologies adopted by Islamic jurists (fuqaha) in deriving legal rulings from the Prophetic narrations, highlighting the relationship between textual evidence, medical understanding, and contextual application. By doing so, the study demonstrates the depth, nuance, and continued relevance of Islamic jurisprudence in addressing the specific religious responsibilities of women.

A Research Analysis of the Qur’anic Expressions of the Prophetic Attributes and Their Stylistic Presentation
type: item
description: This study explores the Qur’anic expressions describing the attributes of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the stylistic manner in which these attributes are presented. The Qur’an portrays the Prophet (PBUH) not merely as a historical or moral figure but as al-insan al-kamil (the perfect human being), the embodiment of divine guidance, and the ideal model for all humanity. Through a rich variety of linguistic, rhetorical, and thematic expressions, the Qur’an presents his attributes as a comprehensive system of moral, spiritual, and social guidance. The Qur’anic discourse employs multiple stylistic forms to convey the Prophet’s (PBUH) qualities. In some verses, his characteristics are expressed explicitly, such as “And to the believers he is kind and merciful” (al-Tawbah: 128), emphasizing his compassion and empathy. In others, the Qur’an uses implicit or metaphorical expressions, such as “And indeed, you are of a great moral character” (al-Qalam: 4), to highlight his ethical perfection. Similarly, verses like “He recites to them His signs and purifies them” (al-Jumu‘ah: 2) reflect his educational, spiritual, and reformative roles. These varying modes of expression reveal the depth and multidimensional nature of Prophetic virtues in the Qur’an. The analysis concludes that the Qur’anic portrayal of the Prophet (PBUH) integrates moral excellence, spiritual purity, intellectual wisdom, and social leadership into a unified model of guidance. His attributes serve not only as theological affirmations but also as practical principles for personal development and societal reform. Therefore, understanding these Qur’anic descriptions is essential for appreciating the Prophet’s (PBUH) universal role as a teacher, leader, and reformer of humanity. The study emphasizes that the Qur’an’s presentation of the Prophet’s (PBUH) attributes remains a timeless source of ethical and spiritual inspiration for individuals and societies alike.

A Practical Perspective on the Social Application of Asbab al-Nuzul Narrations in Tafsr Zad al-Masir
type: item
description: The sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (Ahadith) are a fundamental part of Islam, forming the basis of Islamic law (Shariah) after the Quran. The Quran is a comprehensive code of life that provides spiritual guidance and addresses various aspects of social living. Tafsir Zad al-Masir by Ibn al-Jawzi is a significant work of Islamic scholarship, offering concise yet comprehensive explanations of Quranic verses. This commentary includes narrations related to the reasons for the revelation (Asbab al-Nuzul) to provide contextual understanding of the verses. This article aims to critically analyze the narrations of Asbab al-Nuzul in Zad al-Masir and explore their relevance and application in social contexts.

Biography and Approved Journals of Pakistani Universities: An Analyticle Study (2013-2023)
type: item
description: This research article explores the important role of Higher Education Commission (HEC) recognized academic journals published by Pakistani universities in the promotion and dissemination of Seerah (Prophetic biography) studies from 2013 to 2023. Rooted in Islamic scholarship and guided by an analytical methodology, the study evaluates the contribution of Urdu, Arabic and English language journals to the academic landscape of Seerah literature in Pakistan. Drawing from the doctoral thesis of Muhammad Aslam (2024), the article classifies and analyzes the met gnhodological approaches, thematic orientations and scholarly trends found in HEC-approved journals including Al-Idah, Al-Ilm, Ma'arif-e-Islami, Al-Dawaa and others. The research identifies three major thematic categories within Seerah publications: Prophetic teachings and moral guidance, military campaigns and treaties (Maghazi and Mu‘ahadat) and characteristics and personal attributes of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) (Shama’il and Khasa’is). The article highlights the increasing academic engagement with modern challenges such as interfaith dialogue, extremism, social reform, and educational ethics through the lens of the Seerah. The findings reveal that while the quality of research has improved significantly, accessibility to general readers remains limited due to academic language and formatting. The study recommends wider digital dissemination, simplified summaries for public readership and further interdisciplinary research that connects Seerah studies with contemporary social sciences. This article contributes a structured and comprehensive assessment of a previously underexplored field and aims to support future Islamic scholarship and institutional policy development in the area of Seerah studies.

The Impact of the Theory of Asabiyyah on International Law
type: item
description: The discipline of international law has been shaped by the historical experiences and philosophical foundations of Western civilization, Enlightenment rationalism, colonial expansion, and modern liberalism. While these paradigms have significantly influenced the development of legal norms, institutions, and practices on a global scale, there is a growing recognition that the universalists’ claims of international law often mask a deeply embedded Eurocentrism. In response, scholars have begun to re-examine international legal systems through alternative, non-Western epistemologies that reflect the diverse sociopolitical experiences of other civilizations. One such powerful framework is the theory of Asabiyyah, introduced by Ibne Khaldun. Asabiyyah is an analysis of the cyclical nature of political power and the rise and fall of civilizations. Ibne Khaldun proposed an internal group solidarity to confront challenges, expand its influence, and eventually establish governance.This study attempts to bridge the conceptual world of Asabiyyah with the modern structure of international law. Asabiyyah argues that the legal interactions among states, the formation of transnational alliances, and the enforcement of international norms are all significantly influenced by collective identities and group dynamics that parallel Ibn Khaldun’s insights. The relevance of this classical Islamic concept to contemporary international law becomes evident when examining how blocs such as the European Union, the African Union, BRICS, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), or even NATO function. This paper will critically engage with both classical Islamic thought and contemporary international legal theory to explore the intersections between Asabiyyah and international law. It will examine historical case studies, such as the legal frameworks during the Islamic Caliphates, as well as modern scenarios including post-colonial legal developments and present-day geopolitical alliances.

The Importance of Asking Questions for Seeking Knowledge in Shariah: Etiquettes and Benefits
type: item
description: This research article explores the significance of asking questions as a vital tool for acquiring knowledge within the framework of Islamic Shariah. The act of inquiry is not merely encouraged in Islam but is considered a fundamental aspect of the learning process, as evident from numerous verses of the Holy Qur’an and traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The study highlights how the companions of the Prophet (Sahabah) would frequently ask questions to understand matters of faith, practice, and jurisprudence, thereby setting a precedent for future generations. Various hadiths have been examined wherein the Prophet (PBUH) appreciated intelligent questioning and responded with detailed, enlightening answers. The research article also outlines the etiquette (adab) of asking questions, including sincerity of intent, respect for the teacher, and timing. Furthermore, the paper discusses the spiritual and intellectual benefits of questioning, such as clarity of understanding, protection from ignorance, strengthening of faith, and enhancement of critical thinking. By drawing upon authentic sources, this research article emphasizes that asking appropriate questions is not only a means of personal growth but also a communal responsibility to preserve and promote true Islamic knowledge. The research concludes by encouraging contemporary Muslims, particularly students and scholars, to revive this noble tradition in the prescribed manner.

Analytical Review of Islamic Studies Helping Books Taught in Higher Secondary Institutions of Dera Ghazi Khan District
type: item
description: According to the Constitution of Pakistan, the education of Islamiat has been made compulsory up to the graduation level and thus the subject of Islamiat has been declared compulsory from class one to the graduation level. Books from the first grade to the twelfth grade are published by the Provincial Text Book Board at the official level under the title of Islamiat Lazmi. While no book is published at the graduation level under the auspices of the government, rather the Higher Education Commission provides the curriculum to universities across the country. Over the past few years, the atmosphere of competition for admission to professional institutions has increased immensely, as a result of which there has been an increase in the demand for helping books among students to score maximum marks. This trend has increased in general in all institutions, while in private educational institutions, the preparation and use of support books is given special attention., We will present an analytical and comparative study of the helping books used in private institutions for compulsory Islamic studies at the higher secondary level to assess the content of compulsory Islamic studies and its impact. Dera Ghazi Khan district was selected for this assessment and survey method is adopted to get opinion of the stake holders.

Insects as a Blessing: An Islamic and Scientific Solution to the Global Food Crisis
type: item
description: The ever-growing human population poses serious challenges, particularly concerning global food security. As conventional food sources may become insufficient, it is essential to explore sustainable alternatives. One such potential solution is the use of insects as a food source. Insects are highly nutritious, containing substantial amounts of proteins, fats, essential vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds. Their consumption not only helps meet dietary needs but also offers environmental benefits, such as reducing pollution and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. This research article also explores the Islamic legal perspective on the consumption of insects by presenting the viewpoints of the four major Sunni schools of thought (A’immah Arba‘a). It highlights that while certain insects are explicitly prohibited, the general stance in Islamic jurisprudence is not one of absolute prohibition. Therefore, many insects may be permissible and can be considered viable components in addressing future food shortages. The study offers an integrated approach combining scientific insight and Islamic jurisprudence to address one of the most pressing issues of our time.

A Research Analysis of Bay al-Muzayadah (Auction Sale) in Pakistani Markets in the Light of Islamic Jurisprudence
type: item
description: This research explores the permissibility of Bay al-Muzayadah (auction sale) in Islamic jurisprudence, with a particular focus on the roles and actions of commission agents in Pakistani markets. The study investigates prohibited practices such as Najash (artificially inflating prices without intent to buy) and Sawm ala Sawm Akhih (bidding over a fellow Muslim’s bid unjustly), which are explicitly condemned in authentic Hadith. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forbade such deceptive methods to ensure fairness and trust in trade. The research also presents the views of the four major Islamic schools of thought (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafii, and Hanbali) regarding auction sales, highlighting that while auctions are generally permitted, they must adhere to ethical principles and avoid deception. Special attention is given to the conduct of commission agents who often manipulate bids for personal gain. The study concludes by recommending Shariah-compliant guidelines to ensure integrity, transparency, and justice in auction-based transactions in contemporary markets.

The Interrogative Style of Islamic Preaching in the Light of Surah Al-Ankabut
type: item
description: This research paper explores the interrogative style employed in Islamic preaching, with a specific focus on Surah Al-Ankabut. The study highlights how rhetorical questions are used as a powerful tool to provoke thought, challenge false beliefs, and guide individuals toward truth and reflection. Surah Al-Ankabut, revealed during a time of intense persecution of early Muslims, presents a unique blend of narrative, argumentation, and questioning to strengthen faith and expose the fallacies of polytheism. By analyzing selected verses from this Surah, the paper examines how interrogative expressions serve as a persuasive and educational device within the Qur’anic discourse. The study also discusses the broader implications of this style in Islamic pedagogy and da'wah (inviting others to Islam), showing how questions stimulate cognitive engagement and moral introspection. Through a qualitative content analysis, this paper demonstrates that the Qur’anic use of interrogatives is not merely stylistic but deeply strategic—intended to awaken conscience, encourage reasoning, and reinforce divine truth. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of Qur’anic rhetoric and offer insights for contemporary Islamic communication and preaching methods.

Sharia perspective of Limitation in Litigations
type: item
description: In Shariah, litigation is an important part of maintaining justice in society. The limitation in litigation refers to the idea that there are time constraints within which a person can file a legal claim or seek redress. While Islamic law does not explicitly prescribe a uniform statute of limitations as modern legal systems do, the underlying principles of justice, fairness, and accountability guide the approach to time limits in legal matters. In Shariah, the limitation in litigation is primarily concerned with preventing the harm caused by prolonged disputes, ensuring the timely resolution of conflicts, and upholding the integrity of legal processes. While specific time limitations are not always explicitly outlined in classical texts, the guiding principles of justice, equity, and fairness generally allow for judicial discretion in determining the appropriateness of a claim based on its timeliness. As modern Islamic states integrate Sharia principles with national legal systems, clear limitations on various types of litigation are becoming more defined. Still, they continue to be influenced by the foundational goals of preserving justice and social harmony.

Problems faced by the Muslim minority in China
type: item
description: The Muslim minority in China faces numerous challenges, some persisting for over 1,400 years, while others have emerged due to China's rapid globalization and the post-9/11 global "War on Terror." The Hui and Uyghur populations, the largest Muslim groups, are significantly impacted by government policies. These policies, including restrictions on religious practices, forced assimilation, and extensive surveillance, severely affect their cultural identity and religious freedom. The economic disparities between Muslim-majority regions and the rest of China further exacerbate these issues, leading to feelings of alienation and discrimination among China's Muslim communities.
