History Of Islamic Science - The Time Of Abu-l-wafa Yunus, Ibn alHaitham, Al-Biruni, Ibn Sina, Ali ibn Isa, al-karkhi, Ibn Gabirol (all Muslim except The greatest of them all, al-karkhi was chiefly an arithmatician and http://www.levity.com/alchemy/islam17.html
Extractions: It is almost like passing from the shade to the open sun and from a sleepy world into one tremendously active. For the sake of convenience, I divide Muslim mathematicians into three groups: those of the West, those of Egypt, who occupied, so to speak, an intermediate position, and those of the East. This is also a logical division, for though communications between the eastern and western ends of the Islam were frequent (there were a number of itinerant scholars to whom the universality of Islam seems to have been a continual provocation to move on from place to place), it is clear that local influences were felt more constantly and to greater advantage. I named these Eastern mathematicians, as well as possible, in chronological order. This does not, perhaps, bring out with sufficient clearness the full complexity of their activities. In the first place, observe that, I did not mention a single astrologer; only one named in this section flourished not in the East, but in the orthodox Tunis, where there was much less freedom of thought. In the second place, if we leave out of account the astronomical work, which was determined by practical necessities, we find that there were two distinct streams of mathematical thought: the one theoretical represented by Ibn al-Husain, Abu-l-Jud, and al-Karkhi, the other, more practical, represented by al-Nasawi and Ibn Tahir. Al-Biruni and Ibn Sina can not be included in that classification, for they were equally in the most abstruse and in the most practical questions; they had no contempt for humble means, for there are no small matters for great minds.

Extractions: He is one of the ancient and principal Shaykhs, and was famed for his generosity and devoutness. This notice of him should have come earlier in the book, but I have placed it here in accordance with two venerable persons who wrote before me, one of them a relater of traditions and the other an independent authority ( sahib tasarruf ) I mean Shaykh Abu `Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami, who in his work adopts the arrangement which I have followed, and the Master and Imam Abu l-Qasim al-Qushayri, who has put the notice of Ma`ruf in the same order in the introductory portion of his book [ I have chosen this arrangement because Ma`ruf was the master of Sari Saqati and the disciple of Dawud Tai. At first Ma`ruf was a non-Muslim ( begana ), but he made profession of Islam to `Ali ibn Musa al-Rida, who held him in the highest esteem. NOTES ] This statement is not accurate. The notice of Ma`ruf Karkhi is the fourth in Qushayris list of biographies at the beginning of his treatise on Sufism, and stands between the notices of Fudayl ibn `Iyad and Sari Saqati. In the Tabaqat al-Sufiyya , by Abu `Abd al-Rahman al.Sulami, the notice of Ma`ruf comes tenth in order, but occupies the same position as it does here in so far as it is preceded by the article on Abu Sulayman Darani and is folIowed by the article on Hatim al-Asamm. It appears from the next sentence that aI-Hujwiri intended to place the life of Ma`ruf between those of Dawud Taf and Sari Saqati (Nos. 14 and 15), but neither of the two above-mentioned authorities has adopted this arrangement.

Extractions: To our respected brother Shaikh Muhammad Adly, and to our dear internet readers, we would like to present our final conclusions of the "debate" between myself and Shaikh Adly in the following two parts. In the first part we will discuss Ibn Taymiyya's views on Tasawwuf . In the second part we will mention some of the views of the Salaf and Khalaf scholars, as well as some relatively modern scholars on the subject of Tasawwuf Orientalists and Modern Islamists have contributed to the misrepresentation of Ibn Taymiyya as an enemy of Sufis. This has been propounded even more strongly lately by the scholars of the "neo-Salafi" school, whose followers claim to strictly adhere to Ibn Taymiyya's teachings, but who in fact have severely deviated from them in this area of understanding. However, regardless of the desires of one group or another, the facts provide a clarification of reality: that Ibn Taymiyya accepted Tasawwuf on the condition that it follows shari'ah , and that Ibn Taymiyya himself was not only a Sufi follower, but was adorned with the cloak (khirqa) of shaikhhood of the Qadiri Order.

Ma‘ruf ibn Firuz al-Karkhi ("the man from Karkh," a suburb of Baghdad) was born to Christian parents, and he later converted to Islam. He taught and preached in Baghdad until his death in 200 (815). His mother and father immediately became Muslims. The woman was amazed at his clemency, and set down both the Koran and the prayer rug. The woman hastened away in shame and confusion. When the youths beheld the shaikh, they broke their lutes and poured away the wine they were drinking. Trembling overcame them, and they fell before the shaikh and repented. Sari-e Saqati relates the following story. Then he raised his head and called to a bird in the air. The bird flew down and perched on his hand, covering his head and eyes with his wings. At once his uncle was filled with confusion. The Christians were unable. The Jews were likewise unable to lift it. Then the Muslims came and lifted it. They prayed over him, and in that very place they committed him to the ground. Questions .

Extractions: The first comment that we must make regards al-Karaji's name. It appears both as al-Karaji and as al-Karkhi but this is not a simple matter of two different transliterations of the same Arabic name. The significance is that Karaj is a city in Iran and if the mathematician's name is al-Karaji then certainly his family were from that city. On the other hand Karkh is one of the original suburbs of Baghdad which grew up outside the southern gate of the original city. The name al-Karkhi would indicate that the mathematician came from the suburb of Baghdad. Historians seem divided as to which of these interpretations is correct. The version al-Karkhi was proposed by Woepcke (see [7] or [8]) but al-Karaji, the version which is most often used in texts today, was suggested as most likely by della Vida in 1933. Rashed comments (see [1] or [5]):- In the present state of our knowledge delle Vida's argument is plausible but not decisive. On the basis of the manuscripts consulted it is far from easy to decide in favour of either name.

Furthermore, he shamelessly admits that he is good at refuting the words of the most truthful Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wa-sallam) that oppose his Madhhab.

According to the leader of the Jamaat at-tablighiyya, the works done by al-Ummat al-Muhammadiyya, singly or wholly, for fourteen hundred years were not in the way of prophets ('alaihi mu 's-salatu wa 's-salam) and were not aimed at changing the heretical beliefs that had spread among human beings; therefore, it has become a must to establish a new jamaat! Those who have wanted to separate al-Ummat al-Muhammadiyya and to start a new heretical movement against Ahl as-Sunnat have always come about by saying such words; claiming that the whole Ummat Islamiyya has deviated from the right path and dissented from the way of salvation, they have founded new paths. They have put their invented, corrupt, heretical ideas forth in this way.

Islamic Legal Theory Subtitle 3 Qawa`id Fiqhiyyah 1. Usul al-karkhi. The first book on Islamiclegal maxims by `Abd Allah ibn al-Husayn al-karkhi (d. 340/951). http://www.nyazee.com/islaw/theory/theory.html
Extractions: The discipline of Usul al-Fiqh has received great attention from scholars in every century and rightly so. Today, our expectations from this discipline have increased manifold due to the contact of Muslim societies with other civilizations. The discipline deals with interpretation and legal reasoning. It deals with a large body of rules that guide interpretation. In short, it is not one but many disciplines. Accordingly, this section is divided below into a number sub-disciplines that show that expanse and scope of this field. Sub-title 1: Usul al-Fiqh. This discipline has been called legal theory, principles of Islamic jurisprudence or simply Islamic jurisprudence. It deals with the sources of Islamic law or the criteria of validity for the legal rule in Islamic law. Major discussions include the description of the sources and the methods of legal reasoning. Outlines of Islamic Jurisprudence by Imran Ahsan Nyazee. Download book (1.9MB zip file). This book deals, in a concise way, with fiqh or the substantive law as well as well as with the schools of law along with usul al-fiqh . The first edition of this book was sold out, and work on the second revised edition is nearing completion.
