[Hadith Notes @Hadith_Notes]

The best advice I received as a hadith student: memorize scholars’ names, death dates, and regions. It helped me connect the dots.

I made this list to help students do the same. Learn a few names each week, revise regularly, and soon you’ll know them by heart.

[Ayşe Baltacıoğlu-Brammer @BrammerAyse]

In my graduate seminar on tribes and tribalism, we read Yossef Rapoport’s Becoming Arab, a genuinely thought-provoking book.

Its central arguments is that the supposedly ancient and continuous “Arabness” of Egypt and Greater Syria is, to a large extent, a later historical construction. As local populations (especially Copts and Jews) gradually converted to Islam, much later than the first centuries of Islam and for pragmatic rather than coercive reasons, they also increasingly came to describe and perform themselves as “Arab” through how they dressed, what they read, and, most fascinatingly, how they spoke Arabic.

Putting aside a few mild criticisms I have of the book and its main argument (for instance, there is virtually no discussion of how these communities understood and described themselves before they became “Arab”), I still think it is a must-read for anyone interested in the formation of ethnic, cultural, and social identities.

And there is definitely a huge need for a similarly ambitious study of “becoming Turk,” not taking Turkishness as a timeless or self-evident identity, but asking when, how, and under what historical circumstances people came to understand and describe themselves as “Turk.”

At first, I thought if something like this happened to me, my reaction wouldn’t be nearly as composed. Then I realised brother Amir is from Kashmir.

A man’s character is revealed by how calmly he carries himself through adversity & anger. Trust in God & Be Humble!

In 1944, Prizren was the Turkish Kandahar of Europe
The population spoke, wrote & read Ottoman. Their law was the Sharia. Women wore the ferece, while men wore fezzes and turbans like Prophet Muhammad & shalvars of Mahmud II.
In bazars men would carry the Turkish allti or kobure.

📍Tabanovce Köyü, Kuzey Makedonya 🇲🇰

Koca Mehmed Bey Camii

Kuzey Makedonya’nın Sırbistan sınırındaki Tabanovce köyünde bulunan Koca Mehmed Bey Camii, 16. yüzyıl sonuna, 1586–1596 yılları arasına tarihlenen bir Osmanlı eseri. Tek kubbesi, taş-tuğla duvar örgüsü ve mukarnaslı minare şerefesiyle dönemin mimari özelliklerini taşıyor.

Uzun yıllar bakımsız kalan caminin çevresinde Kumanova Müftülüğünce temizlik çalışmaları başlatıldı. Dileğimiz, bu mirasın özgün dokusu korunarak restore edilmesi ve yeniden yaşatılması.
