The purpose is to complement more objective or 'technical' globalization narratives with more direct accounts of social and emotional issues.

The body occupies a central position in the argumentation of the book of Jonah. Not only is the prophet Jonah depicted as being involved in different life-situations, but his bodily and personal conduct also illustrate an unwillingness to change his theological thinking. Religious, political, social and cultural aspects of larger bodies are enacted through Jonah's bodily performance. Jonah could not have acted differently.

Since 1989 'rites of cursing', derived from Northern Thai folk-religious practices, have become common in public protests and demonstrations in Thailand. This essay argues that the employment of these practices and associated beliefs as aspects of civil society and contemporary nation-state making in the Thai context can only be understood in terms of the internal logic of sorcery and embedded conceptions of morality.

Physical, sensory, and mental impairments can influence an individual's status in society as much as the more familiar categories of gender, class, religion, race, and ethnicity. This was especially true of the early modern Arab Ottoman world, where being judged able or disabled impacted every aspect of a person's life, including performance of religious ritual, marriage, job opportunities, and the ability to buy and sell property. Sara Scalenghe's book is the first on the history of both physical and mental disabilities in the Middle East and North Africa, and the first to examine disability in the non-Western world before the nineteenth century. Unlike previous scholarly works that examine disability as discussed in religious texts such as the Qur'an and the Hadith, this study focuses on representations and classifications of disability and impairment across a wide range of biographical, legal, medical, and divinatory primary sources

This book is a compilation of economic views on the purpose of life. It follows a unique approach, starting with propositions from diverse fields that act as governing laws of the purpose of life in economics, then guiding the reader through the physical, philosophical, and psychological views of the purpose of life, as economics and economic theories can find their roots in all these areas. The book concludes with the purpose of life presented through economic doctrines (from the pre-classical, to classical, to neo-classical schools of economic thought), through the lens of economic development, and from the perspective of several religious doctrines.

Break Every Yoke weaves religion into the stories about race, politics, and economics that conventionally account for America's grotesque prison expansion of the last half century, and in so doing it sheds new light on one of our era's biggest human catastrophes. By foregrounding the role of religion in the way political elites, religious institutions, and incarcerated activists talk about incarceration, Break Every Yoke is an effort to stretch the American moral imagination and contribute resources toward envisioning alternative ways of doing justice. By looking back to nineteenth century abolitionism, and by turning to today's grassroots activists, it argues for reclaiming the abolition "spirit.".

The relevance of this topic is due to the lack of study of the history of the formation of two mutually exclusive concepts of God, tanzih akyda (impropriety) and tashbih akyda (likening God to created) and the influence of this process on the formation and development of the Hanbali madhhab in Russian history and religious studies. The influence of Israiliyat, individual stories and beliefs inherent in some Jewish and Christian sects on the formation of the teachings of anthropomorphic sects is also noted. In this regard, the special role of neophytes, who formally accepted Islam and actively introduced Israelism, was noted. This applies primarily to Kab al-Akhbar and Wahb Ibn Munabbih. The subject of the study is tanzih akida and tashbih akida, the influence of Israiliyat on its formation and its role in the history of the Hanbali madhhab. Due to the fact that our research is primarily of a philosophical and religious nature, we applied research methods adopted in these Humanities. As a result, we studied the processes of influence of Israiliyat on the formation of tashbih akyda and came to the conclusion that it had a great impact on the formation of the Hanbali madhhab and the historical features of its development. Particular emphasis was placed on the fact that Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbali, the eponym of Hanbali madhhab, held the aqida of unlikening God to created, but some of his disciples, who were followers of some anthropomorphistic sects, brought tasbih aqida mazhab, which was formed largely under the influence of Israiliyat. This has led to the fact that for many centuries, under the name of Hanbali madhhab, researchers unite two groups of people who profess a diametrically opposite concept of God. This research occupies an important place in religious studies, history and philosophy, because it reveals new aspects of the formation and historical development of this madhhab. There is also shown the Israiliyat influence on the formation of tasbih aqida and religious-philosophical doctrine, which at the turn of XIII – XIV centuries was preached by a famous religious figure from Syria – Ahmad Ibn Taymiyah, known for having the key influence on the formation of the Wahhabi sect in Arabia. The scope of the research results includes: theoretical development of courses and textbooks on the history of Islam, Islamic theology and sectarianism, etc. Practical application of the research results is possible in the development of methods for resolving religious and political conflicts of modern times, mainly between Sunnis and Shiites, as our research helps to understand the origins of their appearance and the formation of religious and political differences.Key words: Islam, Muslim, Israiliyat, tanzih aqida, tasbih aqida, Kab al-Ahbar, Wahb Ibn Munabbih, Hanbali madhhab, Ahmad Ibn Imam Hanbali, Ibn al-jawzi, the history of Baghdad ; Актуальность рассматриваемой темы обусловлена недостаточной изученностью истории формирования двух двух взаимоисключающих концепций Бога, акыды танзих (неподобия) и акыды ташбих (уподобления Бога созданным) и влияния этого процесса на формирование и особенности развития ханбалитского мазхаба в отечественной истории и религиоведении. Отдельно отмечено влияние исраилята, отдельных историй и убеждений присущих некоторым иудейским и христианским сектам на формирования учения антропоморфистских сект. В этой связи отмечена особая роль неофитов, которые формально принимали ислам и активно внедряли исраилят. В первую очередь это относится к Кабу аль-Ахбару и Вахбу ибн Мунаббиху. Предметом изучения являются акыда танзих и акыда ташбих, влияние исраилята на ее формирование и ее роль в истории ханбалитского мазхаба. В связи с тем, что наше исследование в первую очередь носит философский и религиоведческий характер, то мы применяли методы исследования принятые в этих гуманитарных науках. В результате мы изучили процессы влияния исраилята на формирование акыды ташбих и пришли к выводу, что она оказала большое воздействие на формирование ханбалитского мазхаба и исторические особенности его развития. Особый акцент был сделан на том, что эпоним мазхаба имам Ахмад ибн Ханбаль придерживался акыды неподобия Бога его созданиям, однако, некоторые из его учеников, которые были приверженцами некоторых антропоморфистских сект привнесли в мазхаб акыду ташбих, которая во многом сформировалась под влиянием исраилята. Это привело к тому, что многие столетия под названием ханбалитский мазхаб исследователи объединяют две группы людей, которые исповедуют диаметрально противоположную концепцию Бога. Данное исследование занимает важное место в религиоведении, истории и философии, потому что раскрывает новые аспекты формирования и исторического развития данного мазхаба. Также показано ключевое влияние исраилята на формирование акыды ташбих и религиозно-философского учения, которое на рубеже XIII – XIV вв. проповедовал известный религиозный деятель из Сирии – Ахмад ибн Таймия, который известен тем, что оказал ключевое влияние на формирование в Аравии секты ваххабитов. Область применения результатов исследования включает в себя: теоретические разработки курсов и учебников по истории ислама, по исламскому богословию и сектантству, и.т.д. Практическое применение результатов исследования, возможно при разработке методов урегулирования религиозно-политических конфликтов современности, преимущественно, между суннитами и шиитами, так как наше исследование помогает понять истоки их появления и формирования религиозных и политических разногласий.Ключевые слова: ислам, мусульмане, исраилят, акыда танзих.
