Afrika'da Kurulan İlk İslam Kentlerinden: Tahert - Söylemez, Mehmet Mahfuz (İslami İlimler Dergisi, 2015)
Tahert İbâdî kökenli Müslümanlar tarafından Kuzey Afrika’da, bu günkü Cezayir sınırları içerisinde hicri ikinci asırda kurulmuş kadim bir şehirdir. Eski Roma kenti Tihert’e onaltı km. mesafede kurulan bu şehir yaklaşık bir asır Rüstemilere başkentlik yapmıştır. Fars kökenli Abdurrahman b. Rüstem tarafından inşa edilen Tahert’e Emaziğ kökenli kabilelerin yanı sıra başta Irak olmak üzere diğer bölgelerden de İbâdî mezhebine mensup Müslümanlar gelip yerleşmişlerdir. Merkezine cami, pazar, daru’l-imarenin yerleştirildiği Tahert, tipik bir İslam kentidir. İçerden dışarıya doğru dairesel olarak açılan bu şehri kuşatan iki adet de sur bulunuyordu. Döneminin önemli ticaret merkezlerden biri olarak kabul edilen Tahert, aynı zamanda bir ilim ve kültür yuvasıydı. Binlerce cildi havi kütüphanesi ve yüzlerce talebeye ev sahipliği yapan medreseleriyle dönemin önemli çekim merkezlerinden biri olarak kabul edilmektedir. Kuzey Afrika’yı kasıp kavuran İsmaili Şiiler tarafından tahrip edilen Tahert, zamanla tarihe teslim olmuştur. Kalıntıları günümüze kadar ulaşan bu tarihi kentte henüz ciddi kazılar yapıl(a)mamıştır. Gelecekte burada yapılacak olan kazılar şehri daha iyi tanımamıza olanak sağlayacaktır.

İbâdî Fırak Literatüründe Şehristânî Etkisi -Kalhâtî Örneği- - Gömbeyaz, Kadir (İslami İlimler Dergisi, 2015)
İslam tarihi boyunca ortaya çıkan siyasî-itikâdî oluşumları/fırkaları ve onların görüşlerini ele alan fırak edebiyatının şüphesiz en başarılı ve en çok bilinen örneği Ebû’l-Feth eş-Şehristânî’nin (ö. 548/1153) el-Milel ve’n-nihal isimli diğer dinleri de kapsayan eseridir. El-Milel yazılmasının akabinde kısa bir süre içerisinde İslam coğrafyasının pek çok köşesine ulaşmış ve özellikle nispeten tarafsız ve ilmî üslubu sebebiyle değişik fırka mensupları tarafından dahi başvurulan temel bir kaynak olmuştur. Bunun örneklerinden biri Şehristânî’den kısa bir süre sonra yaşadığı anlaşılan Uman’ın Kalhât şehrinden İbâdî âlim Ebû Abdillâh el-Kalhâtî’nin (ö. 7./13. yy) el-Keşf ve’l-beyân adlı eseridir. Bu makale el-Keşf’in ikinci cildinin otuz sekiz ile ellinci bâbları arasında yer alan İslam fırkalarının tasnif edildiği bölüm üzerine odaklanarak Şehristânî’nin el-Milel’indeki fırka tasnifi ile yapılan mukayeseler sonucu görülen çarpıcı benzerliklerden hareketle Kalhâtî üzerinde Şehristânî etkisinin mevcudiyetini iddia etmekte ve bunu ispatlamaya çalışmaktadır. Bunun yanı sıra Şehristânî’den ciddi ölçüde yararlandığı anlaşılan Kalhâtî’nin niçin eserinin hiçbir yerinde Şehristânî’den veya el-Milel’den bahsetmediği sorusuna da birtakım öneriler sunmaktadır. Son olarak Kalhâtî’nin tasnifinin Şehristânî’nin tasnifinden nerelerde ve hangi bakımdan farklılaştığını tespit etmek suretiyle Kalhâtî’nin tasnifinin kendine özgü niteliklerini başlıklar halinde ortaya koymaya çalışmaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: İbâdîlik, Kalhâtî, Şehristânî, Uman, Fırak Edebiyatı

İbâdî kaynaklar açısından Umman ve Kuzey Afrika son derece önemli birbölgedir. Basra’da teşekkül eden İbâdiyye kısa zaman sonra Kuzey Afrika’daçok sayıda taraftar bulmayı başarmıştır. Bölgeyi ilim merkezineçeviren İbâdiyye burada çok sayıda âlim yetiştirmiştir. Ebî Hazer dördüncüasır İbâdî bilginlerindendir. er-Redd alâ cemîi’l-muhâlifîn adlı eseri iletanınmaktadır. Bu makalede Ebî Hazer hakkında bilgi verilecek ve ona aiter-Redd alâ Cemî’i’l-Muhâlifîn adlı eserinde yer alan “Mu’tezile’ye Reddiye”isimli kısın tercüme edilerek kısa bir değerlendirme yapılacaktır.

İbâdî Fi̇ki̇rleri̇n Oluşumunda Mu'tezi̇le'ni̇n Rolü - Ateş, Orhan (İslami İlimler Dergisi, 2015)
Mu’tezile ve İbâdiyye İslâm tarihinde teşekkül eden iki farklı fırkadır. İbâdiyyeorijin olarak Havâric’in alt fırkaları arasında yer almaktadır. Ancakdini ve siyasi fikirleri bakımından Mu’tezile’ye oldukça yakındır. İbâdiyye“tepkisel kabilevi” din anlayışı içerisinde değerlendirilirken Mu’teziletam zıt kutupta “akılcı hadari” din anlayışı içerisinde ele alınmaktadır.Mu’tezile ve İbâdiyye’nin dini ve siyasi görüşlerinin büyük çoğunluğununbenzerlik göstermesi araştırmaya değer bir husustur. Bu makalede İbâdîfikirlerin teşekkülünde Mu’tezile’nin rolü tartışılacaktır.

İbâdîli̇k Araştirmalarinda Önemli̇ Bi̇r İsi̇m: Tadeusz Lewicki - Yildiz, Harun (İslami İlimler Dergisi, 2015)
Ortadoğu coğrafyasında yaşayan dinî grup ve mezhepler arasında, özellikletarihsel anlamda Hâricîliğin günümüzde yaşayan en önemli kolu olmasınedeniyle İbâdîlik, önemli bir yere sahiptir. Esasen, kendilerini Hâricîbir fırka olarak kabul etmeyip, bu tanımlamayı açık bir şekilde reddedenİbâdîliğin ortaya çıkışında, hicrî ilk yüzyılda yaşayan Abdullah b. İbâd ilefırkanın görüşlerini asıl sistematize eden kişi olduğu anlaşılan Câbir b.Zeyd’in ciddi bir rolü vardır. İslam tarihinin erken dönemlerinde ortayaçıkan İbâdîlik, diğer Hâricî gruplara göre daha mutedil bir bakış açısı iletavra sahiptir. Ayrıca, diğer dinî gruplarla uzlaşmaya, fikir alışverişine vehoşgörüye daha açıktır. Özellikle Basra kenti başta olmak üzere Irak coğrafyasındaortaya çıkan İbâdîlik, süreç içerisinde İslam dünyasının diğerbölgelerine yayılmıştır. İbâdîliğin yayıldığı yerler arasında Libya, Tunus,Fas ve Cezayir’in merkezden uzak bazı yerleşim birimleri başta olmak üzereSudan, Mali, Madagaskar, Tanzanya ve Zengibâr gibi Afrika’nın bazıbölgeleri ile Arap yarımadasının güneyinde bulunan Umân coğrafyası oldukçaönemlidir.Tadeusz Lewicki, batı dünyasında yetişen ve daha çok İbâdîlerin tarihselgelişimi ile inanç ve öğretileri, kültür ve edebiyatları gibi konularda çalışanönemli araştırmacılardan biridir. Bu makalede biz, İbâdîlik araştırmalarınıngelmiş olduğu süreçte, önemli çalışmalara imza atan ve aynı zamanda çokyönlü bir araştırmacı olduğu anlaşılan Tadeusz Lewicki’nin İbâdîlik araştırmalarındakiyeri ve katkılarını ortaya koymaya çalışacağız. Bu çerçevedeöncelikle, konunun daha iyi anlaşılması amacıyla bize konu ile ilgili kültürelbir altyapı kazandırması için İbâdîlik ile ilgili yapılan araştırmaların genel birdeğerlendirmesi yapılacak, daha sonra Tadeusz Lewicki’nin hayatı ve yetişmetarzı ile onun İbâdîlik sahasında vermiş olduğu önemli eserler üzerindedurulacaktır. Ardından, Lewicki’nin bu alanda yapmış olduğu çalışmalar veİbâdîlik ile ilgili görüşleri üzerinde bazı değerlendirmeler yapılacaktır.

İzkevî'ye Göre Mu'tezi̇le Firkalari Ve Görüşleri̇ - Ateş, Orhan (İslami İlimler Dergisi, 2015)
Mu’tezile Hz. Peygamber’in vefatından sonra Müslüman toplumun sosyo-kültürel hayatında yaşanan değişmeler sonucu ortaya çıkan siyasi ve itikadî krizlere felsefeden güç alarak akılcı yöntemlerle çözüm bulmaya çalışan rasyonalist bir fırka olarak bilinmektedir. Mu’tezile hakkında çok şey biliyor olmamıza rağmen İbâdî kaynakların Mu’tezile’ye bakışı hakkında yeterli bilgiye sahip değiliz. Bu makalede İbâdî mezhepler tarihçisi İzkevî’nin Keşfu’l-Gumme adlı eserinde yer alan “Mu’tezile bölümünden yola çıkarak İbâdiyye’nin Mu’tezile’ye bakışını ortaya koymaya çalışacağız.

Mahfuzat: Tunus ve Tunus İbadileri Üzerine Notlar - Söylemez, Mehmet Mahfuz (e-Makalat Mezhep Araştırmaları Dergisi, 2015)
Günümüzde Kuzey Afrika İbadîlerinin üç bölgede yaşadıkları bilinmektedir. Bunlardan nüfus olarak en kalabalığı Cezayir'de bulunmakta olup ülke nüfusunun yaklaşık %5'ini teşkil etmektedir. İkinci önemli küme ise Libya'da bulunmaktadır. Üçüncü küme bu yazının konusu olan Tunus'un Cirbe adasında yaşamaktadır. Buraya İstanbul Üniversitesi adına yürüttüğümüz “İbadîlerin Tarih ve Kuran Algıları” başlıklı proje kapsamında Nisan 2015 tarihinde bir seyahat düzenledik. Elinizdeki yazı bu bağlamda kaleme alınmıştır.

Bir İbadî Çocuk İlmihali “Telkînü's-Sıbyan" - Ateş, Orhan (e-Makalat Mezhep Araştırmaları Dergisi, 2009)
Bir mezhebin fikirlerinin doğru anlaşılmasında kendi kaynakları oldukça önemlidir. İbâdîler'in itikadi görüşleri hakkında az sayıda çalışma yapılmış olmakla beraber İbâdî ilmihali hakkında ülkemizde herhangi bir çalışma mevcut değildir. Bu açıdan makaleye konu olan Telkinü's-Sıbyân isimli ilmihali önemsemekteyiz. Telkinü's-Sıbyân İbâdîler arasında tanınan bir kaynaktır ve Umman'da yaz tatillerinde İbâdî çocuklar bu kitabı okumaktadır. İlk kısmı İbâdî itikadı diğer bölümler ise ibadetlere ayrılmıştır. Bu sayede İbâdî itikadını ve namaz konusundaki farklı uygulamalarını kendi kaynaklarından öğrenmiş olacağız

The Hasat Bani Salt in the al-Zahirah Province of the Sultanate of Oman - Yule, Paul A. (2001)
The Hasat Bani Salt is South-eastern Arabia's largest and most important rock art monument. Often referred to as Coleman's Rock, it is named after the geologist who, by word of mouth, made it known in expatriate circles in the 1980s. An improvement of its documentation allows a better idea regarding its dating and meaning.

Sasanian Presence and Late Iron Age Samad in Central Oman, some Corrections - Yule, Paul A. (2008)
The question arises as to the nature of Parthian and Sasanian presence in south-eastern Arabia. Important is the role of the archaeological record in Oman in the early first millennium CE. The excavator has emended his chronology for late pre-Islamic Oman, de-emphasizing the evidence of radiocarbon dating. Recently in prominent places, Derek Kennet ignored and denigrated key results won from excavation and study in the 1990s. By means of the selective citing of sources, he concludes that the Samad cultural assemblage predates the first century CE.

The Old German Consulate in British East Africa: A Mombasa Mansion and Its Carved Door - Frankl, P.J.L. (British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, 2003)
Mombasa and the entire Swahili coast of EasternAfrica have long had historical and cultural links with the rest of the Indian Ocean region, and this article reflects those links. The mansion in question is a nineteenth century house situated between the Portuguese-built fort and what is now the Old Port. Over the past century the house has hadfour owners, three of them Muslim.The first was a gentleman from Oman, who almost certainly built the house and commissioned the carved door. The second was Tharia Topan,an Isma'ili from Gujarat, who accumulated vast wealth. The third was a Parsi firm originating in Bombay; it was towards the end of the period that this structure became dilapidated and that,probably, the two original leaves of the carved door were removed. Shaykh Mbarak 'Ali Hinawy,the fourth owner, restored both the house and its carved door.

African Controversy: The Inheritance of the Donatist Schism in Vandal Africa - Whelan, Robin (The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, 2014)
A sense of an ending dominates accounts of African Christianity after the Vandal conquest of the 430s, not least as a result of the apparent disappearance of the Donatists in an Africa now ruled by Homoian Christians. In fact, the transfer from Donatist schism to new ‘Arian controversy’ more closely resembles the broader picture of Vandal Africa which has emerged from recent scholarship: significant continuity amid dynamic transformation. The cultural and rhetorical legacies of the Donatist schism were used by both parties (Catholic and Homoian) in Africa's new church conflict to present themselves as the true African Church.

Many years ago, my French colleague and collaborator, Dominique Labie, had arranged a scientific trip to Algeria to study hemoglobinopathies in Algiers (Mears et al., 1981; Pagnier et al., 1984). After several days of intense work, Cherif Beldjord, the younger of our hosts, proposed that we take the weekend off and go to Ghardaia. To entice us, he said, “It will be a fun trip to the Sahara desert, and you cannot imagine how beautiful the place is.” Dominique and I rapidly signed up for this great opportunity. Finally, I would see the Sahara desert, the magical and mysterious Sahara desert.

Une décision en 1905 de la Cour permanente d’arbitrage de La Haye, connu sous le nom du « cas des boutres de Muscat » avait résolu un différend entre les gouvernements français et britannique sur le droit de certains propriétaires de boutres omanais à battre le pavillon français, ce que les Britanniques prétendaient faire parti du commerce des esclaves dans l’océan indien. Le principe énoncé dans cette décision, que chaque état souverain a le droit d’allouer son pavillon maritime aux ressortissants d’autres États, a été cité comme le fondement juridique des pavillons de complaisance actuels. Cet article remet en question cette décision dans son contexte historique, mettant en valeur les problèmes spécifiques contestés et le rôle de l’arbitre américain, le juge en chef Melville Fuller, dans la résolution de l’affaire.

Some observations on women in Omani sources - Andriyanova, Olga (Proceedings of the Seminar for Arabian Studies, 2011)
In the field of Omani studies, a relatively young historical discipline, no serious academic research on the political, social, and cultural role of women in the history of Oman has yet been undertaken. This can be explained by the nature, preservation, and availability of source material. The present contribution attempts to combine existing approaches towards women's history, elaborated with reference to material from other parts of the Middle East, with first-hand primary sources collected in Oman, in order to stimulate further research in this underexplored field. After a short historiographical review, three types of available sources are revealed. Biographical dictionaries provide us with long lists of women renowned for their knowledge and piety, thus raising the issue of female religious education in Oman. Works of Omani historians such as Kasẖf al-gẖummah. attributed to Sirḥān al-Azkawī, or Alfath al-mubīn by Ibn Ruzayq are seemingly 'male-oriented'. However they throw some light on women's roles in the political life of the country and, vice versa, on the impact of the turbulent Omani history on women's lives from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries. Finally, legal documents from private collections (wills and acts attesting the purchase of property) elucidate women's relatively active participation in local economic life and women's importance in the matters of charity, education, and general wellbeing of the community.

Seyyid Said bin Sultan BuSaid of Oman and Zanzibar: Women in the Life of this Arab Patriarch - Romero, Patricia W. (British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, 2012)
Seyyid Said bin Sultan BuSaid, ruler of Oman (1806 – 1856) and of Oman and Zanzibar (1836– 1856) owed his Omani throne to his fraternal aunt. He married her daughter, his cousin, and cast a wide net for nocturnal partners—slaves from mainly the Black Sea and Abyssinia. He married two Persian royals, and courted the Queen of Madagascar. This paper covers the major events in Said’s life from the death of his father, Sultan, in 1904 when his aunt stepped in to aid him (and a brother with whom he became co-ruler for a few years), until Said’s death at sea in 1856. Suffering losses of territory his predecessors had gained in the Persian Gulf, Said created a domestic empire in Zanzibar.

Games on the seashore of Salalah: the discovery of mancala games in Dhofar, Sultanate of Oman - Charpentier, Vincent; de Voogt, Alex; Crassard, Rémy; Berger, Jean-François; Borgi, Federico; Mashani, Ali al- (Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, 2014)
During the 2013 ﬁeldwork of the French archaeological mission along the shores of the Arabian Sea, mancala games were discovered on the seashore of Salalah at the site of Ad-Dahariz. They are cup-hole carvings made directly into rock slabs and distributed in six distinct zones of the site. They usually consist of fourteen cup-holes aligned in two lines of seven, two supplementary holes being sometimes present on each side. They are the ﬁrst of their kind in South Arabia and can be compared to similar conﬁgurations of carved games elsewhere in Arabia, such as at Jebel al-Jassasiya, Qatar. This paper presents the potential origins of this game in the region, as well as a plausible dating of their use.

On the Swahili Documents in Arabic Script from the Congo (19th Century) - Luffin, Xavier (Swahili Forum, 2007)
Si les documents rédigés en kiswahili à l’aide des caractères arabes provenant d’Afrique de l’Est sont bien renseignés depuis longtemps, qu’il s’agisse de correspondance ou de littérature, l’existence de tels documents provenant d’Afrique Centrale, et en particulier du Congo, est encore très mal connue. Pourtant, outre les témoignages de divers observateurs ou acteurs européens des débuts de la colonisation, plusieurs documents conservés pour la plupart en Belgique ont subsisté jusqu’à nos jours. Il s’agit essentiellement de la correspondance de marchands swahilis établis dans l’ancien district des Stanley Falls, mais aussi de traités, d’échanges «diplomatiques» ou de notes personnelles, remontant essentiellement aux deux dernières décennies du 19ème siècle. Ces documents se révèlent être une source intéressante à la fois pour l’Histoire du Congo précolonial et pour l’étude diachronique du kiswahili et de son expansion géographique.

ألقى الأستاذ الدكتور صالح خرفي رحمه االله مداخلة في ندوة: قضايا اللغة العربية المعاصرة، التي أقامتها المنظمة العربية للتربية والثقافة والعـلوم، في تـونس عـام 1985م، عنوانها: اللغة العربية هويتنا القومية، وقد تمّكنا أن نستخرج من هذه المداخلة جملة من الأفكار ذات البعد السوسيو لساني، طرحها صالح خرفي من خلال تحليله للعلاقة بين اللغة العربية ومسألة الهوية في هذا العصر، وخاصة باعتباره كان يشغل منصب المدير الثقافي في المنظمة آنئذ، إذ وجدنا الرجل يصدر عن رؤية علمية دقيقة، ويحمل أفكا ار عميقة وعملية من شأنها أن تسهم في حل مشكلات اللغة العربية ال ارهنة، فهي أفكار جديرة بالاهتمام في إطار اللسانيات الاجتماعية خاصة، والثقافة العربية عامة، مما جعلنا نخصها بالعرض مختصرة في هذا المقال. لقد تطّرق في هذه المداخلة إلى جملة من القضايا ذات العلاقة بالدرس السوسيولساني، وأ ّصل لها انطلاقا من مرجعيته العقدية والثقافية، فأصبغ عليها الروح الإسلامية العلمية، حيث تناول من بين ما تناوله: مسألة الصلة بين اللغة العربية والقرآن الكريم وما يترتب عنها من واجبات على المسلمين والعرب خاصة نحو هذه اللغة للنهوض بها داخليا وخارجيا، كما تعّرض لكيفية النهوض باللغة العربية في هذا العصر المتداخل اللغات، وقّدم تصّوره للآليات اللازمة لذلك، حيث ذكر منها على سبيل المثال: ضرورة تفعيل العمل المعجمي العربي من جهة ووضع سياسات لغوية محكمة وهادفة تحمي هذه اللغة وتطّورها على غ ارر اللغات العالمية الأخرى.

M'zab is a region in central Algeria distinguished by its two principal cultural dimensions: the first is an affiliation with the Ibadi sect, and the second is Berber. The region's historical narrative celebrates and focuses on this dual identity in self-definition and in dealing with a dissenting Other. During its passage from one historical stage to another M'zabite society underwent many important transformations that changed its structure and dominant institutions, transforming the references as well through which it establishes itself. This study will attempt to understand the nature of compound relationships in M'zab through a reconstruction of the history of its customary and religious institutions and their interrelationships. It will also try to analyze identity interventions undertaken by the M'zabites themselves and how these interventions operate to supply variable, sophisticated and complex ideological references in structuring M'zabites' relationship with others.

Place and Role of Shura Council in Oman Law System - Busaidi, Y. Y. al- (2013)
The article examines radical changes both in the procedure of Shura Council formation and in its field of competence. The structure of the Council comes under review and the place and role of its main authorities in supporting the government on different running the state issues is determined. Considering and examining the many years' experience of the Council the author has come to the conclusion that the role of the Shura Council is limited only by the government in addressing certain issues. The Council studies these issues and provides recommendations to the Sultan for approval. These recommendations have no legal force, and the Council cannot impose its views on the Government. Despite this fact, the Council in its current form can become the basis for the future Parliament of Oman. To make this happen, in our opinion, it is necessary that the Council be directly involved in the discussion and approval of the state budget. It is also important to make the government accountable to the Council and to report to him about the results of its work.

Peculiarities of Oman Imamate Law System - Busaidi, Y. Y. al- (2013)
The article examines the evolution and peculiarities of the Imamate institute in Oman. Special attention is paid to the Ibadi movement of Islamic law as well as to the tribal common law both of which form the basis for the analysis of the role of Shura Council and influential circles for the purpose of gaining certain balance in relations between the authorities of the country and its inhabitants. Our analysis shows that until the middle of the XX century Oman was a union of tribes supporting Ibadi Islam. Within Ibadi doctrine for the first time in the history of Muslim societies the principles of people's participation in public administration were developed, which resulted in the outward expression in imamate moderate state system. Imam ruled the country with the help of the Council of theologians, the Shura Council, as well as governors and heads of tribes. For centuries Imamate and its institutions ensured the safety of society and order in social relations. Oman Imamate guaranteed gradual strengthening of the tradition of social relations and its steadiness. The effectiveness of such a form was confirmed by the fact that such statehood existed for twelve centuries.

Les premieres explorations arabes du Congo d'après une source omanaise: Le "Juhaynat al-Aẖbār fī Tarīẖ Zinjibār" de Sa'īd Bin 'Alī al-Muġīrī - Luffin, Xavier (Annales Aequatoria, 2008)
Les historiens s'intéressant à l'arrivée des premiers Arabes et Swahilis en Afrique centrale sont largement tributaires des sources occidentales, ou alors des témoignages arabes et swahilis recueillis et suscités par les Européens au 19e et au 20e siècle. Un chapitre du Juhaynat al-aẖbār fī tarīẖ Zinjibār, un imposant livre à propos de la présence arabe en Afrique rédigé par l'Omanais Sa'īd bin 'Alī al-Muġīrī à la fin des années 1930, nous livre la vision omanaise de l'arrivée des premiers Arabes et Swahilis dans l'est du Congo. Le présent article propose une traduction de ce chapitre et une confrontation des informations qu'il contient avec les sources européennes et africaines recueillies à l'époque coloniale et postcoloniale. The sources at the disposal of the historians dealing with the first arrival of the Arab and Swahili traders in Central Africa are mainly Western sources, or African testimonies recollected by Westerners in the 19th and 20th centuries. A chapter of the Juhaynat al-aẖbār fī tarīẖ Zinjibār, written in the late 1930 by Sa'īd bin 'Alī al-Muġīri, gives us the Omani point of view about these events. In this article, I intend to offer a translation of the text and to compare it with the information given by the European sources as well as the African testimonies collected during the colonial and post colonial periods.

طارق بن تيمور ومحاولته عزل السلطان سعيد بن تيمور 1962-1970 - العمري, ثابت غازي بدر; هياجنه, رائد أحمد (مجلة جامعة الخليل للبحوث, 2012)
This paper essentially examines Tariq Bin Timur’s character and his achievements during the reign of his brother Sultan Sa’id Bin Taimur (1932 – 1971). The paper also highlights the motives behind his departure of the Sultanate in 1966 and announcing his discretion to oust the Sultan on the grounds that he was behind the backwardness of the Sultanate.To this end, Tariq made a statement in which he called on the Omani people for support, with a view of ousting the Sultan. In the process, he wrote the Sultanate’s future constitu- tion hoping that his efforts would prevail. With respect to the position of the British Government and other influential parties, the paper looks critically into their positions, particularly that of the British Government, which firmly opposed any change threat that would threat its interests

The Ibāḍī Creed of Maghrib: The Case of al-Janāwunī Abstract North Africa (Maghrib) had been very important for Ibāḍiyya since its formative period as the Ibāḍī creed shaped the theological identity of huge Berber-origin masses and the region has hosted their political structures that reached statehood. Thanks to the Khārijī/Ibāḍī principle of equality of all Muslims regardless of ethnic origins and the confidence that this principle provided to non-Arab elements, Berber tribes of Libya that Abū Zakariyyāʾ al-Janāwunī belonged to had been the earliest communities who accepted Islam in the region. Even though it has experienced minor evolution depending on sociopolitical conditions of the time and the region, the Ibāḍī creed of Maghrib came to this day by being in general congruence with the mainstream Ibāḍiyya. Al-Janāwunī had been a bridge transmitting the thought/creed of his predecessor Ibāḍī imāms to the generations coming after him and played a very central role in defining the boundaries of Maghrib Ibāḍī identity.

Développement et fragmentation d’une ville moyenne en cours de mondialisation : le cas de Salalah (Oman) - Wippel, Steffen (Arabian Humanities, 2013)
L’étude de la reconfiguration économique et spatiale actuelle de la ville de Salalah, dans le Sud du Sultanat d’Oman, invite à porter l’attention sur la problématique des « villes secondaires » arabes dans le Golfe, trop négligées ces dernières années au profit des grandes villes. Salalah n’est apparue sur la carte économique mondiale qu’après la construction de son port à conteneurs vers la fin des années 1990, port qui est en passe d’être complété par d’autres projets industriels, touristiques, infrastructurels et urbains majeurs. L’article tente de comprendre dans quelle mesure Salalah peut être conçue aujourd’hui comme une ville « en cours de mondialisation » et comment elle développe des qualités perçues comme caractéristiques des villes « postmodernes » et portuaires contemporaines. L’analyse porte enfin sur la fragmentation de l’actuelle agglomération urbaine, qui résulte de l’établissement de projets à accès limité et économiquement intégrés aux circuits mondiaux plus que locaux.

The Circulation of North African Dirhams in Northern Mesopotamia – The Dirham Hoard of Tall al-Bīʿa/al-Raqqa (t.p.q. 186/802) - Heidemann, Stefan (Revue numismatique, 2011)
Le trésor de dix dirhams d’argent et une monnaie de bronze (t.p.q. 186) trouvé à Tall al-Bīʿa est un dépôt d’espèces retirées de la circulation sur le marché de la ville d’al-Raqqa. C’est apparemment une sélection négative. Il reflète la prépondérance des dirhams nord-africains dans la circulation à l’époque d’Hārūn al-Rashīd. Le métal neuf des mines d’Afrique du Nord et le réseau commercial du mouvement Ibāḍī en permettait une offre bon marché tandis que le centre du califat connaissait la pénurie et avait une forte demande. Leur poids – et probablement leur poids de fin – inférieurs amenaient à les discriminer dans la circulation et particulièrement dans les trésors d’épargne. Cette surévaluation entraînait l’application de la loi de Gresham et l’on suggère une accélération de la vitesse de circulation. Ces mécanismes amenèrent à un flux rapide de dirhams nord-africains vers le centre du califat.

Soqotra: South Arabia's Strategic Gateway and Symbolic Playground - Elie, Serge D. (British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, 2006)
This article undertakes a critical retrospective of the symbolic appropriation process through which Soqotra was constituted as an imaginative geography, embodying the strategic desiderata of states as well as the ideational fantasies of men over millennia. The island’s location on the threshold of continents (Africa and Arabia), and on a cardinal node on the sea-lanes linking the Indian Ocean to the Red Sea and beyond, subjected its internal dynamics to the maelstrom of events in the larger world. Moreover, its physical isolation endowed it with an endemic biodiversity that has spurred reveries about the lost Garden of Eden, and made it a coveted haven for a mosaic of human aspirations. The article examines the strategic interests pursued, and the appropriating discourses deployed, by the European powers vying for political and economic hegemony at the different historical periods surveyed here: Antiquity, Portuguese, British, Soviet and the recent adoption of a United Nations-brokered environmental regime for Soqotra. Finally, it draws out the ramiﬁcations of this strategic entanglement and symbolic appropriation process on Soqotra’s estimated 50,000 inhabitants at the present historical conjuncture.

Clove plantations on nineteenth-century Zanzibar: Possibilities for gender archaeology in Africa - Croucher, Sarah K. (Journal of Social Archaeology, 2007)
Clove plantations on nineteenth-century Zanzibar were sites on which many recent immigrants from Oman and Africa constructed new identities within the complex social relations of colonial rule, enslavement and concubinage. Archaeological evidence relating both to architectural and ceramic remains is used within this work to interpret such multifaceted identities. Ethnographic and historical accounts of African societies have both shown that gendered identities across the continent are, and have been in the past, characterized by diversity. This article has a wider signiﬁcance beyond the ﬁeld of African archaeology, in suggesting that archaeologists working across Africa are ideally placed to make an important contribution to the ﬁeld of gender archaeology in exploring such heterogeneous subjectivities.

Distribution of benthic foraminiferal assemblages in the transitional environment of the Djerba lagoon (Tunisia) - El Kateb, Akram; Stalder, Claudio; Neururer, Christoph; Fentimen, Robin; Spangenberg, Jorge E.; Spezzaferri, Silvia (Swiss Journal of Geosciences, 2018)
The eastern edge of the Djerba Island represents an important tourist pole. However, studies describing the environmental processes affecting this Island are scarce. Although never studied before, the peculiar Djerba lagoon is well known by the local population and by tourists. In July 2014, surface sediment and seawater samples were collected in this lagoon to measure grain size, organic matter content and living foraminiferal assemblages to describe environmental conditions. Seawater samples were also collected and the concentration of 17 chemical elements were measured by ICP-OES. The results show that a salinity gradient along the studied transect clearly impacts seagrass distribution, creating different environmental conditions inside the Djerba lagoon. Biotic and abiotic parameters reﬂect a transitional environment from hypersaline to normal marine conditions. Living benthic foraminifera show an adaptation to changing conditions within the different parts of the lagoon. In particular, the presence of Ammonia spp. and Haynesina depressula correlates with hypersaline waters, whilst Brizalina striatula characterizes the parts of the lagoon colonized by seagrass. Epifaunal species, such as Rosalina vilardeboana and Amphistegina spp. colonize hard substrata present at the transition between the lagoon and the open sea.

Les circoncellions. Un mouvement ascétique itinérant dans l’Afrique du Nord des IVe et Ve siècles - Pottier, Bruno (Antiquités africaines, 2008)
This article re-examines the circumcelliones phenomenon, notably concerning their origins, their nature and the interpretations of their actions in Numidia during the 340’s. The agonistici, as they call themselves, seem to originate from donatist groups devoted to voluntary martyrdom from as early as 315. Circumcelliones were wandering ascetics from the first half of the fourth century, as it was shown in the book by a donatist bishop of Rome, Macrobius, devoted to the asceticism of confessores and virgins, and in the Contra Gaudentium of Augustine. The agonistici, as ascetics and martyrs, challenged the donatist bishops’ authority. Their actions can be interpreted as a kind of usurped ecclesiastical jurisdiction against those who they defined as pessimi homines. These people were publicly struck by rods which were called Israel. The circumcelliones formed a new Christian rural elite in Numidia, a region organized by imperial and private estates, which were infrequently promoted to city status.

Conservation of historical buildings – The Omani–French museum as a case study - Hegazy, Soheir M (HBRC Journal, 2015)
The conservation of historical buildings in developed countries has been very common, well carried out, and accumulated a wealth of experience. Conversely, the developing countries do not have this experience, qualiﬁed experts or professionals to handle the restoration process of historical buildings independently. So, unless the developing countries received comprehensive support from the related cultural societies and institutions in developed countries for the conservation of its historical heritage, many problems will arise and excessive sums of money will be incurred. The Omani–French museum is a case in point. Through discussing the renovation process of the aforesaid building- as a case study- this paper will highlight some critical issues such as the importance of involving an integrated team of highly qualiﬁed professionals. The precautions to maintain the wellbeing of the building against any further problems arising or required modiﬁcations must also be included in the mission of the said team. Authentic treatment of historical buildings must be highly considered, taking in consideration the new standards of rehabilitating process. Any modern techniques or plants needed must be added with great care to blend with the essence of the original environment.

Max Weber, Islam and Modernity - Djedi, Youcef (Max Weber Studies, 2011)
Once in 1997, in a lecture on 'L'avenir des religions en dialogue', at the Church of St Paul in Strasbourg, Paul Ricœur argued that Islam could not really take part in debates on modernity. Maybe he simply meant that Islam as a whole had not yet been worked upon by modernity, that it did not 'think' itself in modernity yet. This statement, which is certainly not to be understood as an exclusion of Islam, is indeed interesting from a philosopher of modernity who saw in the Weberian approach of history an 'anti-Hegelian solution'. This recalls how the great German philosopher handled Islam, which he undoubtedly admired, but which he also relegated to Oriental quietism. For Hegel, Islam vacated active history along with its 'progress' towards the fulfilment of the Idea of Liberty. In other words, modernity would henceforth proceed without Islam. Indeed, Max Weber did not really think about the situation of Islam in modernity, nor as an actor in modernity. At that time, much of the Muslim world was under European domination, and the army of the Ottoman empire itself was under the control of German experts. The Muslim Caliphate had moreover no other importance other than that with regard to Germany's Mitteleuropa policy. The other European powers that were to dismember the Ottoman empire were already 'Islamic powers', as can be read in Becker on the French colonial empire. Weber certainly witnessed the storm in the teacup echoed by his fellow countryman Becker and the Dutchman Snouck Hurgronje about the Ottoman Shayẖ al-islām's call to holy war. But he did not envisage the disappearance of the Caesaropapism and its consequences for Islam as a whole and, especially, for the Islamic Church, which was his focus of interest. What interests us here is that Weber, who underlined the linkage between the configuration of modern capitalism and Christian movements stemming from the Reformation, sometimes presents Islam as the antithesis of this modernity. Yet we speak at the moment of a kind of Islamic 'protestantisation', to mark the adaptation of the Islamic ethic to the spirit of modern globalized capitalism. But what is perhaps much more interesting is that Weber had already anticipated what we can call the 'Protestant' content of Islam. This of course predated Protestantism and is not central to today's considerations.

The Limits of the Sandhurst Connection: The Evolution of Oman’s Foreign and Defense Policy, 1970–1977 - Gardner, Nikolas (The Journal of the Middle East and Africa, 2015)
This article examines the role of Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said in the development of Oman’s foreign and defense policy from 1970 to 1977. Historians have assumed that following the British-orchestrated overthrow of Qaboos’s father in 1970, British soldiers and diplomats exerted a decisive inﬂuence over the inexperienced young sultan’s policy decisions. While Qaboos certainly depended on British military assistance to defeat an insurgency in Oman’s Dhofar province, he proved much more assertive than existing accounts have suggested. Drawing on British archival documents as well as correspondence of American advisors to the sultan, this article shows that Qaboos played an active role in the development of Omani foreign and defense policy. From the beginning of his reign, the sultan enlisted a diverse group of independent advisors in order to limit British inﬂuence over his government. His assertiveness intensiﬁed as Oman enjoyed a windfall of oil wealth beginning in 1973. In demonstrating the sultan’s attempts to consolidate power from the outset of his reign, this article offers a case study of the limits of Western inﬂuence over leaders in the Gulf region.

The efficacy of Ottoman counter-intelligence in the 16th century - Gürkan, Emrah Safa (Acta Orientalia Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae, 2012)
This article examines the Ottoman counter-intelligence mechanism and the extent to which it succeeded in preventing enemy intelligence. In the 16th century, the length and the scope of both Ottoman – Habsburg and the Ottoman Safavid Rivalry convinced the Ottomans to establish an intelligence network that gathered information in a large geography. Nevertheless, in the war of information between the Ottomans and their rivals, the success of Ottoman information-gathering was intertwined with the efficiency of Ottoman counter-intelligence. In order to gain an advantage in “politics of information”, the Ottoman secret diplomacy successfully refused its enemies a comfort which it sought for itself: access to information about the adversary.

Olive groves: "The life and identity of the Mediterranean'' - Loumou, Angeliki; Giourga, Christina (Agriculture and Human Values, 2003)
Olive tree cultivation in theMediterranean goes back to ancient times. Evensince the Roman Age, olive cultivation spreadto the entire Mediterranean basin. Thislongevous tree integrates and identifieseconomically, socially, and culturally theinhabitants of this basin and determines itsrural landscape. For the residents of theMediterranean, olive oil constituted the mainsource of nutritional fats, their most valuableexport product, and was identified with theirculture. Even now, olive cultivation has amultiple importance for the Mediterranean. Theolive groves, which grow mostly on inclined,shallow, and low fertility soils, and onhand-made stone terraces, have limited wateringrequirements and sustain the fragile naturalresources of the Mediterranean. Today,olive cultivation in the Mediterranean is anadditional income source and supports thepopulation in rural areas during the winterperiod, which profit from summer and seatourism activity. Although anagro-ecosystem, the olive grove resembles thenatural Mediterranean ecosystem and abandonmenttransforms them into natural Mediterranean typeforests. Their change of use from olivecultivation to pasture degrades the ecosystemand decreases the natural resources, because ofover-grazing. At this time, two major factorsthreaten the traditional olive cultivation (i)the competition of the intensive olive grovesin plain and irrigated areas and (ii) thecheaper seed-oils, which intensify theabandonment of traditional olive groves andchange them into pasture, resulting in thedeterioration of the ecosystem. Olivecultivation has left its mark on life in theMediterranean and has contributed to thesustainability of natural resources.Nevertheless, it succumbs under the pressure ofcurrent socioeconomic situations. Today, theconservation of olives in productionconstitutes a necessity for the fragileMediterranean ecosystems and a challenge foreverybody involved.

Political Tensions in Zanzibar: Echoes from the Revolution? - Brown, Andrea (Canadian Journal of Development Studies / Revue canadienne d'études du développement, 2010)
The current period of turmoil (nationalist and ethno-racial tensions and violence) in Zanzibar is similar in many ways to the tumultuous period leading up to the 1964 revolution;however,there are important differences. Ihis paper explores the roots and dynamics of Zanzibari nationalism, ethno-racial identities, and political conflict, examining how ethnicity,class, and regional identities altered during the thirty-yearperiod between political openings-with relations with mainland Tanzania a key factor. Two constants are a regionalized division of interests between the islands of Pemba and Unguja and elite-dominated politics characterized by resistance to open political competitionand democraticgovernance.

Ranking suitable sites for Soil Aquifer Treatment in Jerba Island (Tunisia) using remote sensing, GIS and AHP-multicriteria decision analysis - Anane, Makram; Kallali, Hamadi; Jellali, Salah; Ouessar, Mohamed (International Journal of Water, 2008)
The present study aims to locate and rank suitable sites for Soil Aquifer Treatment (SAT) in Jerba Island (South Tunisia) by integrating a single-objective AHP method into a GIS model. The methodology represents a first step in SAT basin construction projects before field investigations. It considers several criteria related to technical, environmental and cost aspects. The result showed that a large area, covering 1489 ha, is suitable for SAT, which exceeds the required area to infiltrate the total treated wastewater produced by all the island wastewater plants. Being situated inside agricultural areas and near coastlines, potential sites for SAT could increase groundwater availability for irrigation and also mitigate existing marine intrusion problem facing Jerba aquifer. The best sites are found closer to Aghir plant than the rest of island WWTPs.

The parallel analysis of the novel and film will allow me to highlight the convergent narrative structures used in both works to denounce women’s alienation and despair that some of them manifest. Similarly enunciate what are the loopholes that both the novelist and the director proposed to the heroines of their stories.

The Comparison of Factors Affecting on the Process of Life of Azāriqa and Ibāḍiyya Sects - Jafarnia, Fatemeh (Astra Salvensis, 2018)
Khawarij was formed during the war of Siffin and following the advent of arbitration. In spite of Ali (AS)'s war with them and the massacre of them, their opinions remained intact. Because of differentiation in the Khawarij, several sects came out of which two sects of Azāriqa and Ibāḍiyya are among them. As the most extreme sect, Azāriqa disappeared after a while, but Ibāḍiyya continued to live with the modest way. According to author, ideas, the areas of influence and the way of entering these areas influenced the life of these two sects. The result shows that the extreme performance of Azāriqa compared to the planned actions by Ibāḍiyya has been effective to promote ideas and differences in the selection of areas for activity.

Challenging Authority: Al-Balādhurī and al-Ṭabarī on Khārijism during the Reign of Muʿāwiya b. Abī Sufyān - Hagemann, Hannah-Lena (Al-Masāq, 2016)
Khārijite resistance to Umayyad authority during the caliphate of Muʿāwiya b. Abī Sufyān (r. 661–680) is represented in detail in the works of the early Muslim scholars Aḥmad b. Yaḥyā al-Balādhurī (d. c. 892) and Muḥammad b. Jarīr al-Ṭabarī (d. 923). While the Khārijites are overwhelmingly depicted by both authors as religious fanatics whose excessive piety caused widespread bloodshed and who thus should be condemned, a closer look reveals that Khārijites serve specific and distinct narrative purposes: al-Balādhurī uses them mainly to illustrate Umayyad tyranny, while al-Ṭabarī addresses the consequences of Khārijite revolts for communal and imperial stability. The latter's work is also marked by a dichotomy between activist and quietist Khārijism, implying that al-Ṭabarī is not so much opposed to Khārijism as a set of “heretic” religious ideas, but rather to its violent expression of politico-religious opposition.

The politics of the coffee pot: Its changing role in history-making and the place of religion in the Sultanate of Oman - Sachedina, Amal (History and Anthropology, 2019)
Centered on the dalla, the Omani coffee pot, this paper considers how the social practices and knowledges induced by its material form and function organize different forms of perceptual skills. These skills habituate ways of seeing that become a means towards examining the shift from the religio–ethical relationships that defined the shari'a society of the last Ibadi Islamic Imamate that ruled the interior of the region (1913–1955) to those that define ‘heritage’ as part of Omani modern nation state building today. As a coffee server in the Imamate era, the dalla facilitated a history that was primarily moral in nature, oriented towards God and divine salvation. From 1970 onwards, as a visual symbol, it became an integral part of a national linear chronicle of progressive historicity. Through a shift in authoritative time, rationales of temporality, ethics and history were reconfigured, displacing an Imamate while establishing a modern-day Sultanate in its place.

Lessons from Tradition in the Building of Contemporary Settlements: The Case of Tafilalt in the M'zab Valley, Algeria - Rezaei, Naimeh (Architecture and Culture, 2021)
Since Algeria’s independence from France in 1962, the M’zab Valley in the northern Sahara has witnessed a rapid growth in population. Both legal and illegal housing has been built outside the walls of the M’zab’s ancient towns, damaging the environmental and cultural heritage of the area. In response, its long-standing residents have identified protocols for building a number of carefully planned settlements inspired by the original towns. One of these new settlements is Tafilalt, begun in 1997. Based in part on in-depth interviews with residents and the developers of the project, this article studies the construction of Tafilalt by its occupants and their perceptions of their new home. It asks how the M’zab’s traditional methods of planning, building and managing settlements have been adapted to the community’s current needs, who makes up the community, and to what extent Tafilalt might be seen as a model to be used elsewhere.

Liquid Oman: oil, water, and causality in Southern Arabia - Limbert, Mandana E. (Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, 2016)
This paper explores how different natural resources figure in temporal imaginings. I ask: how do oil and water come to frame the relationships and chronologies of transformation and, more particularly, of causality? In order to understand visions of environmental futures, not only might we need to attend to the forms of planning, expectation, and prognosis that shape knowledge or senses of the future, but we may also consider how and why causality and significant events are associated with particular natural resources. Drawing on my previous work that explores the future orientation of oil-depletion talk in Oman as well as textual sources and ethnography, I argue that while water has been associated with pious rule and divine presence, oil has been considered to be much more transitory and the product of human interventions and policies, interventions and policies that emerge from a fraught political history. While water seems to motivate events and cause change, serving as an indication and vehicle of God's power, oil appears less a cause of national transformation, at least in its origins.

Devout Heretics: The Barghawata in Maghribi Historiography - Iskander, John (The Journal of North African Studies, 2007)
From the mid-eighth century to at least the mid-twelfth century, a Berber people known as the Barghawata existed increasingly uncomfortably on the western fringes of North Africa. The medieval Arabic histories depict them in ways that show an increasing ambivalence towards their distinctive religious practices, eventually leading to utter condemnation. Yet these same histories preserve depictions that show that the Barghawata were not always thought of as heretics to be vanquished. The historiographic shift charted here is reﬂective of several dynamics. Some are broad, such as the increasingly uniform ideal of orthodoxy in the region; others are speciﬁc, such as the Marinids’ quest for a legitimising ideology, which led scholars to rethink aspects of the tribal past, as well as encouraging the rulers to support the growth of madrasas in Tunisia and beyond. The Barghawata’s image was increasingly reduced to a caricature, one that was subtly contradicted by the earlier sources.
