Скачать или смотреть The Concept of Umma & Navigating Islamic Solidarity within Nation-States | Kasım Kopuz | Meetup

Dr. Kasım Kopuz explores the concept of the Umma from its Quranic, linguistic, and early historical roots to its place in the age of the modern nation-state. He first examines how the term Umma appears in the Qur’an, hadith, poetry, and classical Arabic lexicons, and how it connects to ideas of mother, imam, fitra, and a shared way of life that binds believers. He then turns to the Medina document and early Islamic history to show how theological and political unity were originally intertwined. Finally, he contrasts this with the secular nation-state and colonial disruption, asking how Muslims today can think and act as an Umma intellectually, economically, and culturally beyond state borders.
