THE SOCIO-POLITICAL THOUGHT OF SHAH WALT ALLAH<br />

PART THREE<br />

1. Qur' Bn 2:246,<br />

2. Qur'Bn 17:40.<br />

5. Kardmdt, plural of kardmah, i.e. the semi-miraculous signs seen in persons<br />

below the rank of a Prophet. But unlike the miracles of the Prophets,<br />

kardmdt are strictly personal experiences devoid of any normative value.<br />

See Muhammad Ajmal, "'Ilni aur Madhabi WgridBt" in Maqdldt-i Ajmal,<br />

ed. Shin12 Majid (Lahore: 1987), pp. 87-101.<br />

6. Qur'Bn 62:2.<br />

8. Abii Dawiid Sulaymiin ibn al-Ash'ath al-Sajistgni, Sunan (Kanpur: 1346<br />

A.H.), vol. 1, p. 54.<br />

9. For the philosophical aspect of the institution of Prophethood in Islam, see<br />

the scholarly exposition of Khalifa Abdul Hakim, The Prophet and His<br />

Message (Lahore: 1987), pp. 1-26, 238-58.<br />

11. JalA al-Din al-Suyiiti, Jam' al-Jawdmi' (Cairo: D%r al-Kutub al-Misriyyah,<br />

1288 A.H.), vol. 1, pp. 477-478. See also Ismg'il ibn Muhammad al-<br />

'Ajliini, Kashf al-Khafd' wa Muzil al-Albds 'ammd lshtahara min al-<br />

Ahddith ‘aid Alsinat al-Nds (Cairo: 135 l A.H.), vol. l, p. 3 1 l.<br />

12. Qur'Bn 53:42.<br />

13. See Abii Muhammad Husayn ibn Mas'iid al-Baghawi (d. 516 A.H.),<br />

Ma'dalim al-Tanzil, (Beirut: 1986), vol. 4, p. 255. The editors of this early<br />

work on tafsir say that they were unable to trace this tradition in any early<br />

sources of Hadith.<br />

14. For the doctrinal bases of these juridical schools in the early Islamic period<br />

see AbU Zahrah, Ta'rikh al-Madhdhib al-Fiqhiyyah (Cairo: n.d.), pp. 31-<br />

4 1 and 175- 18 1. See also an early source of the Hanafi school: Muhammad<br />

ibn al-Hasan al-ShaybBni, Kitab al-Hujjah 'a/d Ah1 al-Madinah, 4 vols.<br />

(Lahore: 1981).<br />

15. Qur'gn 2 : 189. This verse alludes to Mu'Bdh ibn Jabal and another Companion<br />

from the Ansdr. The two of them are reported to have put this<br />

question to the Prophet (peace be upon him) concerning the lunar phenomenon.<br />

See al-Baghawi, Ma'dlim al-Tanzil, commentary on verse 2: 189.
