A Salute to the Master of Martyrs by Islamic Texts Institute Pdf
Ziyārat ʿĀshūrāʾ is arguably the most famous and oft-recited of the ziyārāt or "salutations" to God's infallible guides. It is the epitome of the genre of ziyārāt and has always been a mainstay in the daily liturgy of Shīʿī scholars and worshippers as Imam Muḥammad al-Bāqir expressly intended when he taught it to his disciples. A Salute to the Master of Martyrs is a commentary that attempts to uncover the theological, historical, and spiritual underpinnings of this outstanding ziyārah.

Yasin T. al-Jibouri has been writing, translating and publishing Islamic literature since January of 1974 when he started in Atlanta, Georgia, the publication of Islamic Affairs bimonthly newsletter. So far, he has written, edited and translated a total of 68 titles, and you can get their list in PDF format if you send an email requesting it to: "Yasin Publications" at this address: [email protected]. Al-Jibouri is well known for his two-volume book Allah: The Concept of God in Islam and for his translations, particularly of Al-Muraja`at: A Shi`i-Sunni Dialogue and recently his three-volume translation of Nahjul-Balagha: The Path of Eloquence. These three volumes have been published in the United States, United Kingdom and Iraq. The Iraqi edition is in full color and both recently published editions in the U.S. and U.K. are also in full color. Authorhouse (www.authorhouse.com) has published some of his works, while Amazon (www.amazon.com) is marketing them globally. He presently has a list of other translations of his, which he intends to publish in the U.K. and U.S. These books are badly needed by the Islamic library, which lacks quality literature on the histories and biographies of Ahlul-Bayt, immediate family of the Prophet of Islam, with whom the vast majority of the Muslims are unfamiliar, let alone others.
Unburied Memories: The Politics of Bodies of Sacred Defense Martyrs in Iran by Pedram Khosronejad Pdf
Today, almost a generation has passed since the Iran–Iraq war and the memory of it is set to diminish with each passing generation. The following questions emerge. Can we say that the gradual disappearance of war’s memory means that, increasingly, Iranians will see the Iran–Iraq war solely as an historical event? How can we defend or reject this idea? Today, with which elements and values should we look at the Iran–Iraq war memorials and ceremonies? To what extent will war museums and materials culture be influenced by these new values? In the period during and immediately after the Iran–Iraq war (1980-88), national bereavement and commemoration of martyrs was neither apparent in common state policy nor a social need. Even at the turn of the 21st century, anyone walking through Iranian cities, many of which had been the main scene of the bloody massacre and direct targets of the Iraqi Republican Guard, will have found traces of the terrible, almost unimaginable, human losses. However, today’s Iranians can see modern war memorials and monuments in many parts of the urban and rural landscape. Yet, at the same time, the changing landscape has separated Iranians from such remnants of the violence. It can be argued that many people, in their wish to look forward to a more hopeful future, do not wish to be reminded of this period in Iranian history. This book was originally published as a special issue of Visual Anthropology.
The Book of Martyrs ... Forming a Complete History of Martyrdom from the Commencement of Christianity to the Present Time ... Revised, Corrected&improved by the Revd John Malham. Embellished with a Series of Superior Engravings, Etc. With a Portrait by John Foxe Pdf
The Roman Martyrs contains translations of forty Latin passiones of saints who were martyred in Rome or its near environs, during the period before the peace of the Church (c. 312). Some of the Roman martyrs are universally known-SS. Agnes, Sebastian or Laurence, for example-but others are scarcely recognized outside the ecclesiastical landscape of Rome itself. Each of the translated passiones is accompanied by an individual introduction and commentary; the translations are preceded by an Introduction which describes the principal features of this little-known genre of Christian literature, and are followed by five Appendices which present translated texts which are essential for understanding the cult of Roman martyrs. This volume offers the first collection of the Roman passiones martyrum translated into a modern language. They were mostly composed during the period 425-675, by anonymous authors who were presumably clerics of the Roman churches or cemeteries which housed the martyrs' remains. It is clear that they were composed in response to the explosion of pilgrim traffic to martyrial shrines from the late fourth century onwards, at a time when authentic records (protocols) of their trials and executions had long since vanished, and the authors of the passiones were obliged to imagine the circumstances in which martyrs were tried and executed. The passiones are works of fiction; and because they abound in ludicrous errors of chronology, they have been largely ignored by historians of the early Church. Although they cannot be used as evidence for the original martyrdoms, they nevertheless allow a fascinating glimpse of the concerns which animated Christians during the period in question: for example, the preservation of virginity, or the ever-present threat posed by pagan practices. As certain aspects of Roman life will have changed little between the second century and the fifth, the passiones shed valuable light on many aspects of Roman society, not least the nature of a trial before an urban prefect, and the horrendous tortures which were a central feature of such trials. The passiones are an indispensable resource for understanding the topography of late antique Rome and its environs, as they characteristically contain detailed reference to the places where the martyrs were tried, executed, and buried.
