Expressions of Arabic culture - 5ARAB001W.1

Week 12 - Revision and discussion

  • A powerful and large world power the Ottoman Empire had incorporated and administered large areas of the Middle East such as Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Egypt since the 16th century.
  • In the 19th century most of the territories it controlled , in one way or anothercame under the influence of European capitalism, secularism and colonialism.
  • France occupied Tunisia and Algeria; Britan, Egypt.
  • The circulation of modern ideas and technologies prompted the Ottoman Sultan to pass a series of broad reforms - known as tanzimat - aimed at transforming the Ottoman Empire into a modern nation state.
  • The influence of European ideas inevitably led to what is widely considered a period of slow but steady decline until WWI.

Early developments: the 19th century

  • While the role of Islam in public life had seldom been put into question before, in the 19th century the great influence that modern ideas coming from Europe exerted in Ottoman territories gave rise to a group of intellectuals (known as modernists or salafists) who advocated a return to the Islam of the origins .
  • According to these intellectuals the reason for the decline of the Ottoman Empire was its distancing from its faith, Islam, and its diminished role in public life.
  • Intellectuals such as Jamal ad-Din al-Afghani established an influential school of thought, known as as-salafiyyun or simply modernists, which aimed at reconciling Islam with the necessities of the modern nation state.
  • They preached a return to the Islam of the origins not in literary terms, but rather in the centrality that faith should play in public life.
  • They represented a first - and in a way successful - attempt at modernising Islam.
