Essays on Islam

Introduction

One of the most significant topics of the Middle East history that is considered to be Arab cultural awakening is undoubtedly Arab nationalism. On the one hand, it gathered strength and coherence during and after the First World War. On the other hand, little light is actually shed on that recent phenomenon. A lot of scholars may even get into a mess in defining Arabs, as well as determining what is meant by Arab nationalism. However, taking into consideration the fact that the twenty-first century is characterized by a considerable political activeness, much attention should be paid to Arabs ...

Worries about a decline in the birth rate are nothing new, at least in many developed nations. As early as 1909, Hoffman made it perfectly clear that a love for babies was not the reason that some in the U.S. fretted over the declining number of births. Rather, it was concern over the decreasing rate of births among “native white married women” while the “rate of reproduction [was] materially higher among the foreign element” (p. 676). Similar concerns are in evidence today in places such as Israel, where the comparatively high rate of births among the Arab population has ...

Peter the Great is considered to be the tsar, who has dragged Russia out of the medieval circumstances to such a degree, that by his passing in 1725, Russia was viewed as a main eastern European state. Peter the Great in his efforts to modernize Russia in the early 1700’s has brought together government, modernized the armed force, made a naval force and expanded the enslavement and subjection of the laborers. His residential arrangement permitted him to execute a forceful outside approach. Somebody might think that Peter the Great’s reforms were more cosmetic, however that is not ...

While the concept of race is today clearly recognized as fictitious, the term itself has taken an altogether new reality as a cultural denotation. More specifically, the culture of racism is largely influenced by geopolitical imagination and socio-political antagonism. The new political order referred to as “Empire” is a social frame work that posits “the inferiority of an “Other” based not in biology but in cultural differences and their insurmountability” (Semati, 257). Semati argues that ‘Brown’, once signified exoticism, but refers to menacing ‘Other’ today. The Brown in this case (in Semati’s article) refers to the Muslims of ...

Ismael Ferroukhi gives us a tale of Reda (Nicolas Cazale) a young man from France who must chauffeur his Muslim Father on a pilgrimage journey. This was just before a few weeks to Reda's college exam. The relationship between Reda and his father is based on the clash of cultures and faith. As they embark on their pilgrimage journey to Mecca, a clear difference between the two in terms of commitment to Islam is seen. Reda portrays pensive sadness in their journey and he has nothing in common with his father. He reluctantly agreed to take the pilgrimage journey ...

The film explores the difference in experiences between a devout Muslim father and his secular son as they embark on a pilgrimage to Mecca. From the outset it is important to note that for a devout Muslim such as Reda’s father and a teenage son who is less concerned about religion. The relationship between the father and the son is tense given the fact that the former is a committed Muslim while the latter is not. Their differences in opinion regarding religion, particularly Islam, cause the son to be reluctant to drive his father from the south of ...

Today, terrorism is among the top international threats and the exercise of radicalization is on the rise and civilization is hurting. Led by the misconception of liberalization, rebellious groups are cultivating violence against the public. Usually, these groups are Islamic militants honoring a misleading perception of Islamic faith.

This part of the African continent has fell prey to extremism by terror groups and the main ones include Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), a part of the dreaded Al-Qaeda, ...

Overview

Islamic architecture is based on the traditions of the Muslim community dating as far back as the seventh century. It is well elaborated in traditional Muslim religious buildings such as the mosque and the madrasa. It is believed that the early Islamic architecture drew its designs from Christian architectural features which included columnar arches, mosaics, and domes. Additionally, the architecture included characteristics such as semicircular horseshoe arch and rich decorated surfaces (Ali et.al, 15). On the other hand, modern architecture is used to refer to architectural designs that emerged in the first half of the twentieth century and extensively ...

In December 2016, the US Secretary of State stated that, Israel would either have to be a Jewish State that does not intrude into Palestinian “land” or it should be democratic whereby Palestinians would be given equal rights as dignified citizens of one-state of Israel. This was something many Republicans and Conservatives found to be negative and Anti-American. The purpose of this paper is to argue that the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians cannot be solved. This paper will use elements of persuasion to establish a case to prove that America must stay away from imposing its will on ...

One of the main advantages of literature lies in its ability to communicate various cultural experiences and provide greater knowledge and deeper understanding of foreign traditions for the reader. In the Western civilization, Eastern religious traditions and cultures informed by them are perceived with interest, fascination and even fear; while lack of understanding can often impair successful interaction and communication. In addressing the issue of religious values, the authors of two books, Confucius Lives Next Door: What Living in the East Teaches Us about Living in the West and Children of Dust: A Portrait of a Muslim as a ...

Many of the foreigners who came to India were as a result of trade in the 17th century; the traders began conquering territories in India over the years. After the fall of Bengal in the battle of Plassey, the British moved in and divided India through force of arms (Singh, 1984). During World War II, British and other European colonial empires experienced a strain leading to the other European colonial empires relieving the colonial grip on Asia and Africa. However, Britain was not part of the release of the colonial states. The National Congress of India proposed to support ...

Social Responsibility of Business

Introduction The belief advanced by Milton Friedman connotes that the directors of a business must engage in business actions that bring only profits to the given business shareholders. In reference to notions of business ethics, the executive management of a business corporation must earn profits for the business owners within the rules of the game. Further, about corporate social responsibility, the business management mandate is to conduct business activities in such a way that they do not commit business resources to social responsibility activities, like charity, that have the potential of reducing business profits (Watson and Prevos, 2009).

Introduction

Arabs, particularly from Middle East and North Africa have unique psychological challenges that are associated with the back rash that has been brought about by terrorism. In addition to the increased misconception of their religion being associated with the vice, they also face cultural challenges that dictate how they are supposed to live.

This paper will address the epidemiology of their condition, focusing on the special group on the immigrants, while comparing them with their counterparts at home and ...

Literature Review

Methodology: Scholarly articles/ journals. Literature Review It is worth mentioning that most critics have blamed the Islam religion for the rise of terrorism and other insecurities across the world. The West has been especially critical of anybody that has an Islam background because most terrorists cite the Islamic ideologies to kill others. The religious intolerance has led to misunderstandings between mostly the West and the Islamic countries. The perspective has come to be popularly known as the Islam-West divide by most scholars. While explaining the Islam-West divide, Nader Hashemi (2014) states that religion and politics have been ...

It is imperative that the aspiring public health professionals and researchers marshal all their energy and efforts towards improving the health and development of the societies that are still riddled with infectious diseases such as tuberculosis.

This has subsequently led to relapse and drug resistance. Coming up with slogans presents the easiest and possible manner through which the burden of tuberculosis can be achieved. Tuberculosis affects many people, and it is the second leading killer ...

At the beginning of Ismaël Ferroukhi’s first feature film, “Le Grand Voyage”, the relationship between father and son is very tense, due to the generational gap which stops them from forming a truly close relationship. The beginning of the pilgrimage to Mecca finds Reda and his father very different. They seem to have nothing in common. The aged Moroccan immigrant cannot communicate effectively with his French son, and this is emphasized by the fact that they do not even speak the same language for most of the film. Even more important than the generational gap is the ...

In regards to the father and son and their commitment to Islam is that the father is entirely committed to Islam, but the son is not. This has resulted into them not being too close to each other despite being related as father and son.

At the beginning of their pilgrimage to Mecca, the father and the son relationship is not good, and it is evident when they start their journey the son barely ...

Introduction

Before the formation of states, the areas were always divided into realms. These were mainly vast lands that would always be formed primarily through the acts of acquisition. In the process of acquiring these new pieces of lands under their control, the emperors would always require that the inhabitants of these areas would always have to conform to their rules and ways of life. These may include issues such as religion, culture and even economic activities. The rise of Islamic empires throughout the world played a significant role when it came to matters of the spread of Islam throughout ...

Introduction

Nowadays, unfortunately, terrorism has become an issue number on the universal agenda, since its outcomes affect the global security and undermine human rights values. After the 9/11 Susan Rice, assistant secretary of state for Africa in Clinton administration, described Africa as world’s “underbelly for global terrorism”, meaning numerous physical, legal and financial safe havens (ungoverned spaces) in Africa as space for those, who are interested in training, mobilizing and operating terrorists (Solomon n.p.). Therefore, as African terrorism is to threaten the security of the whole continent as well as to erode the peace of the whole world, it ...

1. How do you characterize the relationship between the father and his son from the perspective of commitment or-non-commitment to Islam? How does this relationship change during the pilgrimage? Reda and his father have nothing in common because he is liberal while his father is rigid and very committed to Islam. Reda and his father clash a couple of times because of their differences in commitment to Islam. Reda is more of a secular person and shows no commitment to Islam. His father, on the other hand, is very religious and committed to the Islamic way of life. First ...

Age has been considered the biggest achievement one has to attain a lot of respect in the society.

Nowadays, it is extremely hard to imagine the world where there is no war, no blood and no struggle for power and influence. We get upset when we turn on the TV. However, it is important to remember that people were at war with each other from the very beginning of civilizations. People were militant because they wanted to conquer new lands and prove their strength to their neighbors. Many wars, including the legendary Trojan War, were fought for women. The entire nations were brought up prepared to go to war with other empires, including Spartans, Persians and Romans, ...

Hence it led to the development of Islamic thought that promulgated deep in the society, and much of the former Christian world ...

If asked to name the “national dish of Britain,” the average person is likely to say, “there is nothing more British than fish and chips,” but he or she might be wrong as it all depends on the criteria used to determine the national dish (Castelow, 2013). If popularity is the yardstick, then fish and chips would miss the mark, since each year in the UK it is outsold by hamburgers, fried chicken, pizza, and Indian and Chinese food (Alexander, 2009). And while this is true, fish and chips still play a vital role in the economic success of ...

Multiple factors went into play before the Europeans claimed dominance over world trade routes and conquered vast lands outside Europe. With a particular interest in the fact that the Chinese boasted better navigation tools and sea vessels than the Portuguese and the Spanish did by the fifteenth century (World Shrinks17mins), the rise of the West benefited greatly from the lack of competition. In other words, if the Chinese had maintained their desire to show their military prowess to other nations, then the West would have taken longer if not failed to come into power.
