Be Muslim and be yourself (Abdussalaam Nordenhök)

Be Muslim and be yourself (Abdussalaam Nordenhök)

It rests a beauty skimmer over the v-formation of the flying geese. They form a floating sky-plume plow that seems to clench fertile clouds to allow invisible seeds to be planted. It’s a fun-filled myth that the goose at the front acts like any kind of celestial bird guru or leader. In fact, geese often change their place in one[Read More…]

Islam and the Question of Nationalism (Zaid Shakir)

Islam and the Question of Nationalism (Zaid Shakir)

Introduction The nation-state, which involves wedding a specific people to a sovereign territorial entity, is a modern phenomenon. For example, the unity of the Italian city-states into a coherent modern nation-state did not occur until the late 1850s. The unification of Germany under Prussia did not occur until 1871. Even though there were many French kingdoms, and even a French[Read More…]

Caucasian and European

Caucasian and European

We’ve got an interesting commentary about using the term “Caucasian”, “Caucasian Muslims”: “I think you are talking about White European Muslims. I am a descendant of Caucasian Muslims and those are not our issues. Caucasian is a fake umbrella term for white people. If you do not come from Dagestan, Chechnya, or that area, you are not Caucasian. …Now that[Read More…]

Hui: the based nation of Chinese Muslims

Hui: the based nation of Chinese Muslims

Walking through the Muslim quarter of Xi’an is a fascinating venture into a hodge-podge of cultures. The smell of lamb skewers and hot spices wafts through the crowded streets. Chinese-looking women in headscarfs stretch noodles, while an old man with a white prayer hat stands in front of a mosque with a distinctly Chinese arched roof.   This is the home[Read More…]

Spanish and Slavic Muslim emirates in the Islamic Andalus

Spanish and Slavic Muslim emirates in the Islamic Andalus

Following the collapse and disintegration of the Umayyad Caliphate of Cordoba during the civil wars of 1009–1013, al-Andalus fragmented into about 20-30 kingdoms known as the party kingdoms, reyes de taifas or mulūk al-tawā’if. Some of these emirates, such as the Taifa of Silves, were little more than self-governing city-states while others, such as the Taifa of Seville, controlled large swathes of territory.[Read More…]

What is the Rum? (Shaykh Ali Adani)

What is the Rum? (Shaykh Ali Adani)

That the Rum mean “the Byzantines” is purely Imran Hoosein’s (erroneous) view. We have already amply addressed that point and debunked it in our writings. Rum is, according to all the classical genealogists, lexicographers etc., not any do-it-yourself modern theorist, the son of Isu (Esau), son of Ishaq, ‘alayhis-salam, who went west, and from whom the “Romans” in a broad[Read More…]
