With dozens of beautiful photographs and extensive text, this Malaysian art book is a testament to the skill and spirituality of Malaysia's traditional woodcarvers. Wood has always played a significant role in the Malay world, including the Malay Peninsula, as a means of shelter, livelihood, comfort and convenience. Among the living arts of Malaysia, woodcarving is one of the oldest, and for centuries woodcarvers enjoyed a prestige that few others did. A master woodcarver was not simply an artist. He had a mystical affinity with his material, and through his art he could unlock, channel and enhance the semangat, or life force, inherent in the wood. His works ere sought after not only for their beauty, but also for the symbolic power and meaning they embodied, in particular the keris, considered the pinnacle of woodcarver's art. Each of the pieces in this catalog of Malaysian art illustrates a specific motif, use of a pattern or form, or interpretation of a legend. The woodcarvings range from extremely important and rare pieces, such as royal ceremonial objects, to wood panels, household objects and elements of traditional Malay architecture.

Proclaiming Holy Scriptures

This book provides a comprehensive study on the proclamation of Holy Scriptures as an enacted celebration, as well as its function as a performance within sacralized theatrical spaces. Scripture is integral to religious life within Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and these traditions have venerated the reading of texts from an appointed place as a sacred act. Thus, the study of how these readings are conducted illuminates some vitally important aspects of this widespread act of worship. Contributing to an underexplored area of scholarship, the book offers an overview of scripture reading in the three Abrahamic faiths and then focuses on where and how the “Word of God” is presented within the Christian tradition. It gathers and summarizes research on the origins of a defined place for the proclamation of holy writings, giving a thorough architectural analysis and interpretation of the various uses and symbols related to these spaces over time. Finally, the listener is considered with a phenomenological description of the place for reading and its hermeneutical interpretation. The material in this book uncovers the contemporary impact of a rich history of publicly reading out scriptures. It will, therefore, be of great interest to scholars of liturgical theology, religious studies, and ritual studies.

This volume brings together new scholarship by Indonesian and non-Indonesian scholars on Indonesia’s cultural history from 1950-1965. During the new nation’s first decade and a half, Indonesia’s links with the world and its sense of nationhood were vigorously negotiated on the cultural front. Indonesia used cultural networks of the time, including those of the Cold War, to announce itself on the world stage. International links, post-colonial aspirations and nationalistic fervour interacted to produce a thriving cultural and intellectual life at home. Essays discuss the exchange of artists, intellectuals, writing and ideas between Indonesia and various countries; the development of cultural networks; and ways these networks interacted with and influenced cultural expression and discourse in Indonesia. With contributions by Keith Foulcher, Liesbeth Dolk, Hairus Salim HS, Tony Day, Budiawan, Maya H.T. Liem, Jennifer Lindsay, Els Bogaerts, Melani Budianta, Choirotun Chisaan, I Nyoman Darma Putra, Barbara Hatley, Marije Plomp, Irawati Durban Ardjo, Rhoma Dwi Aria Yuliantri and Michael Bodden.

Sejarah dan fakta mengenai kota Jerusalem sebahagiannya bersumberkan fakta orang Yahudi yang kemungkinan dipalsukan. Oleh yang demikian, umat Islam hendaklah menerima sebagai sahih fakta yang jelas dari ajaran Islam. Nasihat yang tepat ialah nasihat Rasulullah s.a.w. kepada Saidina Umar al-Khattab menerusi hadis baginda yang bermaksud: Dari Jabir (radiallahuanhu) dari Nabi s.a.w. mengenai peristiwa ketika Umar datang menghadap baginda s.a.w. lalu berkata bermaksud: Ya Rasulullah kami ada mendengar cerita dan nasihat pengajaran yang menarik hati dari orang-orang Yahudi maka bagaimana fikiran Tuan? Bolehkah kami menulis sebahagian daripadanya? Baginda s.a.w. bersabda bermaksud: Adakah kamu merasa ragu-ragu dan serba salah dalam ajaran agama kamu sebagaimana kaum Yahudi dan Nasrani yang telah ragu-ragu dan meraba-raba dalam ajaran agama mereka? Demi sesungguhnya aku telah membawa kepada kamu agama Islam dengan keadaannya yang jelas nyata dan bersih suci dari sebarang perkara syirik dan penyelewengan. Dan kalaulah Nabi Musa masih hidup lagi sudah tentu tidak ada jalan lain baginya selain daripada menurutku. Diriwayatkan oleh Imam Ahmad Hambali dan Baihaqi. History and facts about the city of Jerusalem the Jews partly sourced facts which may be falsified . Therefore, Muslims must accept as authentic facts apparent from the teachings of Islam . The right advice is advice Messenger to 'Umar al - Khattab through his hadith which means : Jabir ( radiallahuanhu ) of the Prophet about the incident when Umar came to the king 's said means: O Messenger of Allah we have heard the stories and lessons to impress advice from Jews then how mind sir? Can we write a part? He s.a.w. said means: Do you feel hesitant and awkward in the teachings of your religion as the Jews and Christians who were in doubt and grope in the teachings of their religion ? Verily I have brought to you the religion of Islam with the situation in a clear and pure of any polytheism and fraud matters . And if the Prophet Moses was still alive of course there is no other way for him apart from following me . Narrated by Imam Ahmad Hambali and Sufism .
