رسول اللہ ﷺکے غزوات اوردفاعی کاروائیوں سے متعلق مستشرقین کے شبہات

Syed Ashfaq Ahmad — 2024-12-30

Many orientalists wrote about the campaigns and defensive operations of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but very few could describe the real facts. And could not meet the requirements of justice, or the majority of them, especially the Christian Orientalists, could not stand on the path of moderation. And the irony of it is that their attitude is regrettable. The sanctity of the pen was a requirement to avoid prejudice, but in them the nobility and honesty were seen as pure. The second is that they did not have solid knowledge about these wars and defensive operations. These Orientalists were not familiar with the Arabic language and the original sources. They were also unfamiliar with Islamic literature and art, as a result of which doubts spread. According to the people of Islam, the most important sources of biography and poetry are the Qur'an and the Hadith. While these orientalists are glorifying the revelation of the verses of the Holy Quran. And the art of hadiths was not familiar with the names of al-Rijal, Jarrah, and Tadeel. Therefore, due to their prejudice and lack of influence in knowledge, the Orientalists continued to connect the invasions and defensive operations with the wars of Jahiliyya period of the Arabs. And sometimes they accused Islam of spreading Islam by force. When the writings of these Orientalists came out, Islam offered rich scholarly answers. Among the Muslim thinkers who are giving now are the two most reliable names of Allama Shibli Nomani and Syed Sulaiman Nadvi. Who has written a book, Sirat-ul-Nabi (ﷺ) and has given a very reasoned and scholarly answer to the criticism of these orientalists. That's why we want to present a research and critical review to solve the doubts of the Orientalists in the light of the book Sirat-ul-Nabi.

اسلامی ریاست کی ممکنہ خارجہ پالیسی اسلامی تعلیمات کی روشنی میں

Sidra Umar — 2024-12-30

Foreign policy refers to the strategies and decisions that a nation adopts to interact with other countries, safeguard its national interests, and promote its values on the global stage. Islamic teachings provide profound guidance on how nations should conduct their external relations, emphasizing justice, peace, and cooperation with others based on mutual respect and shared humanity. Islamic principles, derived from the Quran and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), offer a framework for foreign policy that prioritizes moral integrity, respect for international laws, and the well-being of all nations. This approach's core is the concept of justice (Adl), which necessitates fair treatment in all international dealings. Islam condemns aggression and coercion, advocating for peaceful conflict resolution through diplomacy, negotiation, and mutual understanding. Furthermore, Islamic foreign policy stresses protecting human rights and upholding all individuals' dignity, regardless of their nationality or religion. The principles of *Ummatan Wasatan* (a balanced, just nation) and *Ahl al-Dhimma* (protecting non-Muslim minorities) highlight Islam's commitment to fairness and coexistence. Islam encourages trade and cooperation with all nations, as long as such interactions are rooted in justice and do not harm others. However, Islamic teachings also set boundaries on foreign relations when issues of oppression, injustice, or moral corruption are involved. Thus, while Islamic foreign policy encourages peace and diplomacy, it also allows for defensive action against aggression or tyranny. In the modern context, these principles can be integrated into the foreign policies of Islamic states, promoting a balanced approach that values both national sovereignty and global responsibility. By adhering to the values of justice, respect, and peace, Islamic foreign policy can contribute to building a more harmonious and just world order.
