Dat had ik nog niet eerder gezien (maar kan goed aan mij liggen) een Nederlandstalige nasheed. Te zien op Youtube (daar zijn er nog meer te vinden):

Het kind uit Nablus: geschreven na aanleiding van alle dappere offers in bezet Palestina

en Youth Of Islam: Het kind van Nablus – Nederlandstalige nasheed

Dank aan A. voor de tip!

Ziauddin Sardar – Bloggin the Qur'an

Shedding the burden of tradition | Blogging the Qur’an | guardian.co.uk

I never expected blogging the Qur’an to be easy. But the exercise turned out to be much harder than I expected. By far the hardest thing for me to do was to answer all the questions raised by Madeleine and other bloggers. Indeed, I have discovered that answering all the possible questions one can raise in relation to the Qur’an is almost impossible.

Beliefnet Presents 'Not My Father's Hajj' by Shahed Amanullah — Beliefnet.com

Beliefnet Presents ‘Not My Father’s Hajj’ by Shahed Amanullah — Beliefnet.com

During the modern hajj, the emphasis on commerce and the abundance of modern technology can be distracting. New malls with Western stores are beginning to surround the Masjid al-Haram (“the Sacred Mosque”), contrasting with the nearby bazaars and street markets that echo historic experiences (commerce itself during hajj time has not traditionally been discouraged). Mobile phone and camera use, though prohibited around the Haram, is still widespread, even by pilgrims performing the tawaf and other religious rites (Internet access, on the other hand, is not accessible to pilgrims). The Saudis have been criticized for their disregard for archeology and buildings of historic importance. Most likely, within a decade’s time, few of the buildings immediately around the Haram will be more than 30 years old.

De taal der kleuren

Aangezien het plaatsen van Youtube filmpjes niet helemaal feilloos werkt, is dit evene en testje. Daarvoor heb ik via Marokko.nl een mooi Youtube filmpje gevonden. Of de boodschap aan het einde ervan je nu bevalt of niet, je moet toegeven dat het een mooi filmpje is. Een filmpje dat niet alleen iets zegt over de kleuren in de natuur, maar ook over hoe wij (of althans sommigen onder ons) kijken. Kijken is niet zomaar iets, maar kijken is net als lezen een interpreterende handeling op zich. Dus hoe kijken wij naar de dingen, wat zien we? Hieronder de Youtube clip. (more…)
