About this book

INTRODUCTION

The ninth month of the Islamic calendar is Ramadhan. It is the month that is generally known as the month of fasting. It is in this month that Muslims, the world over, abstain from eating, drinking and sexual activity from dawn till sunset.

With these abstentions there are much deeper meanings than merely staying hungry. In this act of fasting Muslims from all over the world, from all backgrounds and from all financial levels, together leave aside their most basic needs and turn their attentions to Allah, acknowledging that none besides Him can provide. It is a time when the rich feel the hunger of the poor, and thus increase their alms-giving and their expression of gratitude. It is a time when even the irreligious leave bad habits behind them to present themselves before Allah the All-forgiving.

One automatically notices the increase of religious fervour that Ramadhan brings about. This would be a natural step, judging that Ramadhan brings about an increase in reward of each deed by a minimum of ten times.

Fasting is exclusively for Allah: He states, "Fasting is for me and I shall give its reward. And good is (rewarded) with ten times its like." al-Bukhari

Besides fasting, there is an abundance of ways and actions that a person can adopt to try to please his Lord. These have been presented in this book as well as the relevant Masail of Ramadhan. It is hoped that the actions that one finds time to perform in Ramadhan, will be developed as a habit to continue throughout the year.

Note: The Masail presented within this book are those generally followed by the Hanafi Madh-hab.

Oxford Handbook of Religion in Turkey
Since its foundation in 1923, the Republic of Turkey has had a complex and often misunderstood relationship with religion. The constitutional laïcité implemented by its founders is unique in a Muslim context, and although the majority of the population identifies as Muslim, the state recognizes no official religion. Despite this secular stance, Islam has been resurgent in Turkey in the 21st century. Moreover, the relative openness of Turkish society has cultivated vibrant religious (and non-religious) minority communities, placing it at the forefront of global demographic changes in religion. As a result, Turkey has fostered a perennial dynamism among expressions of religious practice, belief, and identity. <p/><em>The Oxford Handbook of Religion in Turkey</em> offers a comprehensive analysis of the ways in which religion is understood, experienced, and contested in contemporary Turkey. The <em>Handbook</em> is arranged into thematic sections dealing with religion and the origin of the state, theological trends in the early republic, Islam in rural and urban settings, religious minorities, religion and culture, religion and politics, and modern intellectual and religious trends. Though this is a seemingly narrow topic, the subject of religion in Turkey attracts considerable interest both within and outside of the academy. Paradoxically, the study of modern Turkish theology is still in its infancy in the Western academy, not only because of the inaccessibility of the sources to non-Turkish speakers, but also because of an over-emphasis on the study of Turkish secularism, to the detriment of the study of religion itself. The <em>Handbook</em> thus represents an important intervention by presenting themes from modern Turkish theology, while opening the field of religious and Islamic studies to include more voices from Turkey. With co-editors in chief specializing in religious studies, theology, and anthropology, the <em>Handbook</em> provides the definitive reference work in this growing field.
