This tradition has produced rich literature in various languages that portrays the multidimensional aspects of the prophet's life and contributions to humankind. Keeping this reality in view, this article presents a reading of the book "Muhadarat-e-Sirat" authored by Dr. Mahmood Ahmad Ghazi (1950-2010), which deals with Sirah-sciences ('Ulum 1-e-Sirat). The book portrays a thought provoking understanding of the discipline of Sirah; evolution of Sirah-writing; suggests new methods of Sirah-writing within the disciplines of contemporary social sciences. PROLOGUE TO SIRAH The Arabic word )ﺳﯿﺮة( srah or Sirat comes from the verb sara (present tense: yasiru), which means to travel or to be on a journey. 2 A person's Sirah is that person's journey through life, or biography from birth to death, encompassing all events of his life, manners and characteristics. In Islamic literature, the plural form, siyar, also refer to the rules of war and dealing with non-Muslims. 3 The phrase srah or Sirat rasul Allah or al-Sirah al-Nabawiyyah, refers to the study of the life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The term Sirah was first linked to the biography of Muhammad (peace be upon him) by Muhammad ibn Muslim ibn Ubaydullah ibn Shihab al-Zuhri (d.124AH/741-2CE 4) and later popularized by the work of Abu Muhammad 'Abd al-Malik bin Hisham (d.218AH/833CE). In the first two centuries of Islamic history, Sirah was more commonly known as Maghazi 5 , which is now considered to be only a part of Sirah sciences. 6 Sirah or Life of Prophet Muhammad (sal'lallahu 'alayhi wa sallam 7) has been a subject of great significance for Muslim scholarship and common man as a normative source of guidance. Sirah has been a subject of endless series of writings and studies done by historians, traditionalists, jurists and scholars interested in the discipline of Sirah. 8 The rationale behind the emergence of Sirah-writing indicates the faith, affection and compliance to the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (sal'lallahu 'alayhi wa sallam) by the Muslims. Sirah-writing is not only a reflection of affection to the Prophet but is also an attempt to keep the historical records correct, unable to be corrupted. It is the art of Sirah-writing that has taught the world how the history can be written objectively. 9 In the 1 st century of Islam, Sirah became a vital source of developing the religious,

This is a period of religious, social, economic, and political tragedy and uprising of restlessness and suffering of nervousness and dissatisfaction. The great era, which was inaugurated with the dawn of the Renaissance, seems to be approaching its end. The new civilization that developed and enhanced the human life in countless ways, has failed to bring about that spiritual and moral awakening in man, that would have enabled him to use all the resources of material strength that were placed in his hands for the betterment of humankind, in the continuation of the Divine Purpose. The icons of matter-worship, race-worship, and land-worship, which were bulldozed by the historic movement initiated by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) have now been resurrected on high foot. Man is once again the master of his own kind, and is hardly conscious of his bondage. All the enthusiasts of hunmanity are uncomfortable over this situation. They are convinced that this is the time to warn the humanity against the approaching catastrophe, and to show him the pathway, which leads to peace, salvation, and greatness. This article is an endeavour to expose this important topic out of the bookshelves. The article, though not inclusive or conclusive, is written to provide the groundwork for establishing a new global strategy by the Muslim scholars and policy makers, to deal with the present-day realities, keeping in view the future panorama of the contemporary social sciences, within the context of crystallizing and the chaos of Islam, because the future of the Muslim-Ummah, in this World and the Hereafter, entirely depends on practicing the Islamic Social Sciences.

The contemporary social security systems are not new for the Muslim world because they have already experienced the admirable social security system in the primary era of Islam. This article presents the case-study of the social security system of Islam, from the historical perspective, prevalent during period of 'Umar ibn al-Khattāb, the second khalifah of Islam.

It requires deliberate or accidental methods of communication through symbolic means in order to establish relations with others humans of a society. Interpersonal communication is the way we share our conversation and attribute its meaning with others at micro and macro-level of communication process. This paper seeks to propagate the idea that Islam is a communicative religion. Allah is communicative God Who takes keen interest in the affairs of His creatures. Interpersonal communication, human interaction and societal relationships in Islam are two way processes of sharing ideas and concerns in open and free environments of devotion. The paper examines interpersonal communication from an Islamic perspective and explains how Islam deals with communication process. The paper concludes that society has a duty to enhance unity and development of the society through interpersonal communication and social relationship.

Attitudes between these faiths today are deeply coloured by the legacy of past encounters, and often preserve centuries-old negative views. The interest of the Muslims and Christians in understanding each other is also phenomenal in history. In view of this scenario, this paper attempts to propose some reflections on Muslim-Christian Relations in the 21 st Century in the view of these questions: What kind of relations does Muslims and Christians want in this century? What are some of the obstacles and challenges to be considered? And what steps can be taken to overcome these obstacles or meet these challenges? These questions have been answered in this paper for the kind of Muslim-Christian relations to be anticipated for and worked for.

The second part, gives an overview of contemporary social sciences; elaborates the branches and evolution of social sciences; evaluates and examines the modern social sciences; compares the methodology of contemporary and Islamic social sciences. The third part, elaborates and compares the philosophy of contemporary and Islamic social sciences. The fourth part, highlights the foundations of Islamic philosophy of social sciences; answers the questions: why and how to blend contemporary social sciences with Islamic philosophy.

This tradition has produced rich literature in various languages that portrays the multidimensional aspects of the prophet's life and contributions to humankind. Keeping this reality in view, this article presents a reading of the book "Muhadarat-e-Sirat" authored by Dr. Mahmood Ahmad Ghazi (1950-2010), which deals with Sirah-sciences ('Ulum 1-e-Sirat). The book portrays a thought provoking understanding of the discipline of Sirah; evolution of Sirah-writing; suggests new methods of Sirah-writing within the disciplines of contemporary social sciences. PROLOGUE TO SIRAH The Arabic word )ﺳﯿﺮة( srah or Sirat comes from the verb sara (present tense: yasiru), which means to travel or to be on a journey. 2 A person's Sirah is that person's journey through life, or biography from birth to death, encompassing all events of his life, manners and characteristics. In Islamic literature, the plural form, siyar, also refer to the rules of war and dealing with non-Muslims. 3

We have demonstrated: (1) the relationship of religion with political-collaboration; (2) an understanding of religious foundations; (3) the need of political-collaboration; (4)and identified seven religious foundations for political-collaboration between Muslim countries, in the light of Qur'ān and Sunnah, i.e. Īmān, Sharī'ah, Khilāfah, Ummah, Ukhuwwah, Wahdah, and Akhlāq. The paper further exemplifies the influence and role of these religious foundations on the collective political behavior of the Muslims, and draws attention of intellectuals and authorities of the Muslim Ummah, towards the urgent task of political-collaboration.
Understanding the Social Foundations of Islam, 2011
Sociology is a social science that studies human societies, their interactions, and the processes... more Sociology is a social science that studies human societies, their interactions, and the processes that preserve and change them. It does this by examining the dynamics of constituent parts of societies such as institutions, communities, populations, and gender, racial, or age groups. Sociology also studies social status or stratification, social movements, and social change, as well as societal disorder in the form of crime, deviance, and revolution. Social life overwhelmingly regulates the behaviour of humans, largely because humans lack the instincts that guide most animal behaviour. Humans therefore depend on social institutions and organizations to inform their decisions and actions. Given the important role organizations play in influencing human action, it is sociology's task to discover how organizations affect the behaviour of persons, how they are established, how organizations interact with one another, how they decay, and, ultimately, how they disappear. Among the most basic organizational structures are economic, religious, educational, and political institutions, as well as more specialized institutions such as the family, the community, the military, peer groups, clubs, and volunteer associations. (1) With this brief introduction of sociology, we will now try to understand the philosophical relation of sociology with religion.

The first part of this paper proposes a precise definition and nature of what a worldview is, and why there is a necessity to have one, with a brief analysis of contemporary paradigms of worldviews. The second part presents an understanding of the basic principles of an integrated Islamic World-view in the light of Qur'ân and Hadȋth. In view of the limitations of this paper and to avoid a lengthy discussion, the terminologies or contents of a worldview i.e. epistemology, metaphysics, cosmology, teleology, theology, anthropology and axiology, which are highly interrelated to each other, have not been intentionally discussed in this paper.

This scholastic treatise portrays an inspiring observation and understanding about the life, labour and message of the Prophet of Islam (peace on him) from the religious, social, economic and political perspective, for the French-speaking world-community. This work endeavors to emphasize that Srah is one of the fundamental secured institutions of Islam. Prophet Muhammad (peace on him) created and preserved a nation (Ummah) by forming the exemplary State of Madnah. Despite its frailty, this Ummah continuously prevails to this day on its basics; and throughout the entire history, Muslims have remained attached with Srah.

The article seeks to enhance the awareness, both for professionals and general readership, to correctly conceptualize the theme of Islamic HRM. The article aims to present basis for thinking on HRM which may lead to some new areas and dimensions not covered by conventional thinking of HRM. It provides the groundwork for establishing a new global strategy by the Muslim scholars and policy makers to deal with the present-day realities, keeping in view the future panorama of contemporary social sciences.

Membership within an ethnic group tends to be associated with a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, history, homeland, language, dialect or ideology, and with symbolic systems such as religion, mythology and ritual, cuisine, and style of dress. The term ethnic group was first recorded in 1935 and entered into the Oxford English Dictionary in 1972. 1 Strictly speaking, the inclusion of "physical appearance" here could possibly be considered less appropriate than the other markers, as the implication that peoples of a single ethnicity "look alike" borders on the implied existence of a "racial" component to ethnicity.

This institution, which started in the first century of Hijrah, has produced a rich, multicoloured literature of Sîrah in various languages, which portrays the spiritual, ethical, social, economic and political aspects of Muhammad's contribution to humanity. Muhadarat-e-Sîrat is a paradigm of the aforementioned rationale. It is the product of wide-ranging, comprehensive, scholarly Urdu lectures of Dr. Mahmood Ahmad Ghazi (1950-2010) on different aspects of Sîrah, delivered during 2006, in the "Islamic Research Institute," International Islamic University, Islamabad. This volume offers an excellent overview to understand Sîrah as well as classic texts of Sîrah. The wide-ranging and eclectic collection of sources is a particular strength of this volume. Examples from Islamic and non-Islamic history, reference of books, geographical names, explanation and relevance to the subject is the quality of this volume. The observations and suggestions given in these lectures are inspirational for Sîrah-writing in the 21 st century. A unique feature of this volume is the presentation of new-modules for Sîrah-writing in the major disciplines of social sciences, i.e.

The question of how the West should respond to this threat has come to dominate global politics. In Western discourse, this terrorism is often framed as resistance to Western values and norms. Hence, prescriptions for dealing with the challenge of global jihadists have included not only military responses but also a campaign for "winning the hearts and minds

However, to be a good social scientist it is important to have the knowledge of all the disciplines of social sciences and to know how they are interrelated or unified. By specializing too early, many social scientists can loose sight of the interrelationships that are so essential to understand the modern problems of human societies. That is why it is necessary to have a course for covering all the important branches of social sciences.
The book in your hand is a concise attempt to present the “Introduction to Social Sciences”. It is prepared according to the prescribed syllabus of International Islamic University, Islamabad. This book is designed to

Its impacts are increasing day by day. Its growing vastness is unchecked. Its impacts seem not only on the political and economic fields but also in social and religious fields of life. Certainly, it has a lot of advantages and merits but unfortunately its disadvantages are at peak now. The current Western global policy is not suitable for Muslims because of the ideological differences.

It fulfills their right to enjoy freedom of action and speech without fear of subjugation. It is a term that embraces more than a conceptual understanding of freedom of human beings as it also signifies the conditions by which such freedoms should be conducted. The United Nations defines Human Rights as those rights, which are inherent in our nature and without which we can not live as human beings (Human Rights, Questions & Answers, (1987) United Nations, New York). The aim of this monograph is to provide an over view of human rights as a concept and a practice for the establishment of a truly humane and civilized society. The sources used in this paper are based on Qur'an and Sunnah with a retrospective approach to vividly describe the conditions under which people have been led to encourage specific categories of rights. This monograph will acquaint the readers with human rights concept of Islam.
