THE AXIAL AGE
1. All occurred in or near the original river valleycivilizations.This meant that the materialpreconditions were present for the developmentof religion and thought.
1. Each revolution in thought was born during aperiod of crisis or instability. Old orders werebreaking down and there was a demand for a newstandard of behaviour ethics.
1. Axial Age revolutions can be counted on thefingers of one hand.This does not mean thatreligion and thought stopped evolving, but that

Monotheism is the beliefin one God.
It is an idea that is older
than the Hebrews, but itis in them we see theearliest and clearestexpression.
Moreover, the Hebrewtraditions would pavethe way for Judaism,
Christianity and Islam.

THE HEBREW STORY
The Hebrews belong to the Semitic language group ofpeople. Other semitic people include: Akkadians,Aramaeans, Amorites, Phoenicians, and the earlyArabs. (Semites = son of Shem, one of Noahs sons)
Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot,son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai,the wife of his son Abram, and brought them
out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to go to the landof Canaan. (Gen. 11:31)
This suggests a migration of the Hebrew people from
Mesopotamia to Syria around 1900 to 1500BCE.

THE HEBREW STORY
Around 1250BCE, the Hebrews found a leader inMoses. His story would end in the forging of theHebrews covenant with Yahweh.
Thou shalt not have other gods beforeme.
In terms ofHebrew religious development, this is
the first major shift: from polytheismto monolatry.
Characteristics of monolatry:1. transcendent theology2. moral precepts, rituals, and tabus

THE HEBREW STORY
Prophetic RevolutionAs the kingdom of Israel was under threat, a newgeneration of preachers began to speak of a newmessage.
1.Thorough-going monotheism2.God is righteous3.He demands ethical behaviour
Justice and ethics were put at the forefront ofHebrew life.
Their message is similar to the Buddhas commentaryon Hindu materialism, and Chinese philosophys
arguments about social chaos and disorder.

Post-Exilic AgeUpon being liberated by the Persians in 539BCE, theIsraelites rebuild the Temple. They last until 332BCE.
Message of the Post-Exilic Age:
1.Eschatological doctrines, or thoughts on the end oftime.
o The coming of a Messiah
These beliefs complete the doctrines of Judaism.They hold on tightly to their faith as they wait,committing their learnings and experiences towriting.

TRIVIA: Who were the Three Wise Men?
From the Gospel of Matthew: After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea,during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem andasked, Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw hisstar in the east and have come to worship him... On coming to the house,they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down andworshipped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him withgifts of gold and of incense and of myrrh.
A Magi was anastronomer and afollower of Zoroaster.
To the east of Judea isPersia.

IBN KHALDUNS CONSTANT:ASABIYA

IBN KHALDUN
He is the father of modern-day
historiography and the social sciences.
Lived a storied life from 1336 to 1406.He travelled extensively throughout theMuslim world, serving different courts in
different capacities.
In two key points in his career, hewitnessed the instability and chaoscaused by two warring dynasties in
North Africa, the Marinids and Hafsids.
Up until the end of his life, he waslecturing and teaching about histheories on history. One of his last
students was Timur (aka Tamerlane),the reat Asian em ire builder.

IBN KHALDUNS OBSERVATION
Ibn Khaldun noticed that the rise and fall of dynasties
followed a cycle.
A dynastyestablishes itspower in a city
The city reaches aperiod of prosperityand prominence Leaders grow either
weak, lax, corrupt,or all three; Primary
cause is luxury
Tribes in theperiphery gather instrength andnumber
At its weakest, the cityis overrun by invading
tribes

ASABIYA
Asabiya is often translated as group feeling
and as a quantity it determines how well onegroup can work together.
It is a feeling of belonging to something that is
expanding, and expansion can only come aboutthrough effective leadership.
Ibn Khaldun observed:
Desert tribes have higher asabiya than citydwellers
Groups with higher asabiya will dominate
groups with lower asabiya

8/3/2019 History of Islam- Aggregate (82)
45/82
ASABIYA
Asabiya is indirectly proportional to the increasingcomplexity of society.
WHY A TRIBE HAS HIGHER ASABIYA
Share common blood tiesDriven by the shared need to surviveHave to utilize fewer resourcesEncounters competition from other tribes
WHY A CITY HAS LOWER ASABIYA
Not everyone is related by bloodJob specialization and diversification
Thriving intellectual life allows for a variety of viewsLuxury, wealth, status, and class set people apartGovernment is more distant and decision making isdelegated to a few
8/3/2019 History of Islam- Aggregate (82)
46/82
ASABIYA
So how can asabiya be increased or improved?
Ibn Khaldun suggests two ways:
1.Religion This creates a group feeling among
people who are not related by blood.2.Royal authority This directs the energies of apeople towards a common purpose.
What do YOU think are other ways asabiya can beenhanced?
My own suggestions:Political ideology
National identity

USING ASABIYA IN HISTORICAL ANALYSIS
The next two slides were real scenariosin history. Id like you to think of howthe concept ofasabiya can explain whathappened in these.
I am leaving these to you forindependent use. I encourage groupdiscussion on this since there are many
possible ways to analyze and useasabiya.

THE SETTING
By 600CE, at the dawn of Islams birth,The Christian Byzantine Empire in Europe and theZoroastrian Sasanid Empire were exhausting eachother through a rivalry that would end by 627.
In the Arabian peninsula, the caravan town of Meccawas quickly becoming a prosperous trading center,ushering in urban and commercial changes that put
pressure on traditional institutions.
Throughout Arabia were the Bedouin tribes who livedon herding and sporadic raids (ghazu) on settlementsand caravans.
8/3/2019 History of Islam- Aggregate (82)
52/82
THE BEDOUIN
Pre-Islamic Arabia
Tribes were bound together by the muruwah spiritwhich emphasized courage in battle, patience insuffering, and vengeance to protect the tribe.
Most of the tribes were polytheistic, and Mecca servednot only as a trading center but a place for the differenttribes to house their idols in the Kabah.
Tribes living closer to the Byzantine and Persianempires were exposed to Judaism and Christianity, thusthe concept of a monotheistic faith is not alien to theArabs.

GUIDE QUESTIONS AS YOU WATCH
Just three things:
1.What was Arabia like before the coming ofIslam?
2.What was Muhammad like as a person?
3.How was monotheism a radical idea at that
time?

Muhammad (570 to 632BCE) was raised an
orphan in a less well-to-do tribe called theQuraysh.
He married Khadija and exposed himself tothe commercial lifestyle in Mecca.
However, he grew increasingly troubled by
the idolatry, worldliness, and lack of socialconscience around him.
This opened him up to a profound religious
experience that would change his life when

Muslim faith is concretized in the Five Pillars
of Islam which had an underlying socialjustice message.
I. Shahadah (profession of faith)II. Zakat (charity)III. Sawm (fasting)IV. Salat (ritual prayer)
V. Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca)
Muhammad made faith and harmony amongpeople accessible so long as they submit to
Allah.

THE NEXT QUESTION
After Muhammad dies in 632, the question
immediately turns to who will succeed him.
Abu Bakr, his most gifted student, assumescommand of the ummah. He is called thecaliph.
O Men, if you have been worshipping
Muhammad, then know that Muhammad isdead. But if you have been worshippingAllah, then know that Allah is living and
never dies.

However, some contested that the
successor should be a relative of theprophet.
His closest relative, his cousin Ali, becamethe caliph in 656 but was largely contestedby rival parties.
He was murdered in 661 and his bloodlinewas eradicated when his son, Husayn, wasmurdered at Karbala, in Iraq, at the year680.

REASONS FOR THE EASE OF ISLAMS SPREAD

REASONS FOR THE EASE OF ISLAM S SPREAD
1. The Byzantine and Persian empires were weak and
vulnerable.
2. Islam bound the once separated tribes together.Coupled with their experience in warfare, thiscontributed to incredibly high asabiya.
3. Other people were ready to accept Islam, especiallywith its emphasis on having no clergy and focus onsocial justice.
4. Muslims were tolerant and protected their subjects.They did not force conversion and allowed others tocontinue with their own faith and laws provided
they pay a tax (jizyah).

DECLINE OF THE EMPIRE
In the final years of the Abbasid, the caliphate
weakened as power devolved to local leaders such asthe amirand religious authorities such as the ulama.
One can argue that Islam has a historical tendency tobe fragmented (as opposed to China which had atendency towards unification).
1.Islam is egalitarian; the Quran never really talksabout centralized authority.
2.Muslims were an inherently mercantile people. Tradeand commerce would flourish with or without thestate.
