ICYMI: here’s a 🧵 I kept adding to over 4 days

Folks interested in #IslamicStudies, Qur’an, religion and politics, & current events in Syria/ the broader Muslim world might find it interesting.
The Qur’anic “commanding right & forbidding wrong” (3:104, 110) can be done, acc2 a famous hadith, w/ the heart, w/ the tongue, and/or w/ the hand. But in modern Muslim societies, should “w/ the hand (bi yad)” be taken to mean state enforcement of religious norms or for actual “morality police”? 1/
Syria's new leaders turn to Islamic law in effort to rebuild Assad's police
Syria's new authorities are using Islamic teachings to train a fledgling police force, a move officers say aims to instil a sense of morality as they race to fill a security vacuum after dismantling ousted president Bashar al-Assad's notoriously corrupt and brutal security forces.

Ahîlik is a sociopolitical structure born from the synthesis of Islamic futuwwa and Turkic tradition. Moving beyond the prevailing economic focus, this study offers an original contribution by analyzing the institution through its political, religious, and social dimensions.
