Education Islamic

Dutch, British and French empires with modern ideas of sovereignty and bureaucracy. All Southeast Asians became aware of the claims and functions of modern statehood aristocrats were deprived of their arms and their slaves all were subjected to the monopoly of a single state system of laws, with origins far distant from them. This imposition of a new order was resisted passionately by some, in the name of dynastic pride (Burmese, Vietnamese, Acehnese, Balinese), nascent ethnie nationalism (Vietnamese, Acehnese, Batak, Javanese), or OSH-flavoured Islam (Tausug, Magindanao, Acehnese). Most however adapted quickly to the modern opportunities offered by the broader worlds they now entered. The new states were useful, and above all they were identified as modern by the new educated groups, but they remained for the most part alien and remote—as indeed they were intended to. [Pg.22]

The first great Islamic alchemist is Jabir ibn Hayyan, known in Latin as Geber, and he is often cited as the greatest of all Arab workers in the art. Jabir was born in the town of Tus in Khorassan (near the modern city of Meshed) around the year 721, and may have lived for some time in the city of Kufa, on the western banks of the Euphrates. The young Jabir was educated by Bedouin, and also seems to have been a member of the Sufis, the mystical branch of Islam that rejected the luxuries of court life for an austere life of prayer, contemplation and ecstasy. Many prominent Arab alchemists — such as Jabir and Ibn Arabi — were Sufis, and their influence on the development of alchemy and the dissemination of alchemical ideas cannot be overestimated. [Pg.50]

What the Islamic scholars shared with their Chinese and Indian counterparts was a strong practical aptitude. Where the Greek philosophers often regarded the work of the artisan and the trader as being of very low status, Islamic scholars were expected to have practical skills. Many of the most important Islamic natural philosophers were trained as physicians. Gentlemen and hakim (wise or educated men) were expected to both understand the world and to participate in it. [Pg.24]

Islamic scholars preserved Greek philosophy and added to it a greater interest in practical alchemy. They contributed tools and methods of investigation, as well as discovering and producing new chemicals. In a broader sense, the hakim and the centers of scholarship that existed in the Islamic world were copied in Europe as part of the educational system, helping to preserve and promote a love of learning. [Pg.27]

In many ways Avicenna (980-1037) can be considered as the Islamic counterpart to Galen in terms of the enormous influence that he came to exercise over innumerable generations of physicians, not only in the Islamic world but also in Europe. He was born near Bokhara in Persia and belonged to an aristocratic family of considerable wealth. His education included all the learning of the time, not only in medicine and the natural sciences but also in philosophy and jurisprudence. Avicenna wrote extensively on a number of subjects, but in what follows we restrict ourselves to his medical writings. His success as a compiler and commentator of Islamic medicine, which mainly meant the teachings of Hippocrates and Galen,... [Pg.11]

Women s privacy is a need and a value that has irtfluenced and continues to influence Arab societies, as well as other Islamic societies. The rules that govern this need are socially defined and mutable (based on Hakim 1986 Arkoun 1990 Roald 2001). Therefore, they are practiced differently according to the cultural context, the period, the situation, and the women s social status their age, education, and income level. For example, in Saudi Arabia, the rales which govern women s privacy in public spaces are set out in legislation. In Palestine, on the other hand, these rales are defined socially. Also, younger, higher income, and better educated women are less concerned about privacy rales. This does not mean that these women do not need privacy, but the required privacy for them is less than that for other women. [Pg.214]
