    Extractions: Section 51 (of the Muqaddimah of Ibn Khaldun) On the matter of the Fatimi (The Mahdi) and the position people take concerning him, removing the veil from all of that. Know that it has been commonly accepted ( mashhour ) among the masses ( al-kaffah The later Sufis have another path with respect to this Fatimi and a way of drawing indications and they probably rely in that upon the unveiling which is the source of their paths. Here we will now mention the hadith which are narrated about this matter and what matters those who deny them have which would invalidate them, and what hadiths with isnads they have with which to oppose them, which we will follow with mention of the Sufis' words so that the sound and authentic of them may become clear to you, insha'Allah ta'ala. Abu Bakr ibn Abi Khaythamah went excessively far, according to that which as-Suhaili transmitted from him, in his collecting the hadith which have been related concerning the Mahdi, so he said, "One of the strangest of them in isnad is that which Abu Bakr al-Iskaf mentioned in his Fawa'id al-Akhbar with an isnad to Malik ibn Anas from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir from Jabir that he said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Whoever denies the Mahdi has become a kafir, and whoever denies the Dajjal has become a liar'."

64. IBN KHALDUN (1332-1406)
    ibn khaldun (13321406) ibn khaldun followed in the pattern of analysisof ibn Taimiyyah respecting to markets and the role of governments.  
    http://islamic-finance.net/islamic-economy/chap14/chap14-6.html
    
    Extractions: Ibn Khaldun's concepts of population dynamics, human resource development, skill diversification and societal transformation together with the importance of governance, are the combination of statecraft with the economic order, which comprises well an empirical though not a conceptual approach to the study of political economy. In this sense, Ibn Khaldun link with epistemological questions of political economy, hence the characterization of what is an Islamic political economy and to suggest ways and means of integrating the Islamic state towards promoting the conditions amenable to the establishment of Islamic political economy, remained totally absent in Ibn Khaldun's writings. In Schumpeter's terminology, Ibn Khaldun may be characterized as a relativist rather than an absolutist in political economic thought. Beyond this even, there does not appear in Ibn Khaldun any abiding philosophy of historicism, according to which the underlying and not simply the outer symptoms of rise and decline of civilizations can be studied. For example, The setbacks of so many Islamic movements in the hands of Occidental Powers since a long time now, cannot be assigned to the condition of enervation of the spirit. The check of the Muslim advance to the precints of France when it was finally stopped by Charles Martel in one of the most decisive battles, the battle of Tours, cannot be explained by the type of historical empiricism provided of Ibn Khaldun. The permanent continuity of Islam as the historical force over time, in spite of the setbacks that Muslims have experienced, cannot be explained by Ibn Khaldun's historical empiricism.

    Extractions: ON TASAWWUF Ibn Khaldun (d. 808) Ibn Khaldun said in his famous Muqaddima The foundation of the way of the Sufis is self-restraint in the world and utter dependence on Allah; shunning of the adornment and beauty of the world; self-deprivation of pleasure, money, and title in the manner agreed upon by the vast majority of the scholars; and isolation from creatures in seclusion and devotion to worship. All these aspects were widespread among the Companions and the Salaf, but with the pervasiveness of worldliness in the second century and the next, and the general inclination of the people towards the world, those who remained attached to worship became know under the name of Sufis.

Bibliography He is indeed the one outstanding personality in the history of a civilization whose social life on the whole was 'solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short'. In his chosen field of intellectual activity he appears to have been inspired by no predecessors, and to have found no kindred souls among his contemporaries, and to have kindled no answering spark of inspiration in any successors ; and yet, in the Prolegomena (Muqaddimat) to his Universal History he has conceived and formulated a philosophy of history which is undoubtedly the greatest work of in kind that has ever yet been created by any mind in any time or place. It was his single brief 'acquiescence' from a life of practical activity that gave Ibn Khaldun his opportunity to cast his creative thought into literary shape. A STUDY OR HISTORY. Vol. III.

"The retrial of Ibrahim and his co-defendants was as manifestly unfair as the original trial.

Hanny Megally Executive Director Middle East and North Africa division Human Rights Watch called for their immediate and unconditional release, and for Ibrahim to be allowed to travel abroad for urgent medical treatment. The verdict comes on the heels of a new law of associations passed by the Egyptian parliament last month, giving the authorities draconian powers to dissolve non-governmental organizations (NGOs) by administrative order and without recourse to a court of law, and to interfere unduly in their internal affairs.

    Extractions: Aug 6, 2002 International Response to Latest in Ibrahim Case International PEN are among the international human rights organisations gravely concerned about the most recent developments in the case of Dr. Saad Eddin Ibrahim, the Egyptian Sociologist who has faced detention, imprisonment and ongoing legal proceedings since May 2001. Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and Egyptian human rights organisations have all released statements of concern about Ibrahim, as have the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in the UK and the European Union. Democracy Egypt, the Ibrahim campaign website, continues to provide updated information, and various media forums have carried the case (see associated urls). In an action alert on the 29 July 2002, International PEN declared that they were "shocked at Dr. Ibrahim's return to prison". The full alert follows. International PEN is shocked by the Appeal Court decision of 29 July 2002, to uphold the seven-year sentence against Dr. Saad Ibrahim. A professor of political sociology at the American University in Cairo and Director of the Ibn Khaldun Centre for Social and Development Studies, Dr Ibrahim was convicted in May 2001 of embezzlement, charges that are widely considered to have been fabricated. International PEN is seriously concerned that Dr. Ibrahim is being penalized for his involvement in a documentary criticising Egypt's election process. It is calling for Dr. Ibrahim's release in accordance with Article 19 of the International Convention on Civil and Political Rights, to which Egypt is a signatory.
