Abstract

Avoiding the double pitfall of a sclerotic tradition and a soulless modernity: Abd el-Kader anticipated this issue early on, specific to any era but which appears to be multiplied nowadays. Opposing one and the other can only generate a schizophrenic consciousness, at the origin, in particular, of the religious or secular fundamentals that we know. For Abd el-Kader, the authentic spiritual tradition can only be revived by actualizing itself in the here and now, by embracing the ever-renewed realities of time and place. The texts presented in this book come from two conferences organized in Damascus (October 2008) and Strasbourg (May 2009). They reflect different aspects of the life and work of a modern day spiritualist who embodied this delicate balance and became, according to the Sufi adage, the "son of his time" (ibn waqtihi).

Abstract

L'émir Abdelkader (1808-1883) est l'un des personnages les plus extraordinaires du XIXe siècle. Héros de la résistance à la colonisation française, il fut le bâtisseur d'un Etat moderne, avant d'être défait par Bugeaud et d'être emmené en captivité en France. C'est Napoléon III qui tiendra finalement la promesse de la France de le laisser repartir en Syrie, où il pourra se consacrer à la mystique, pour être enterré près de son maître Ibn Arabi. Ainsi, ce petit marabout lettré du fin fond de l'Algérie a-t-il inventé l'État moderne, comme il a été le protégé et l'ami de Napoléon III et de Ferdinand de Lesseps, un grand cavalier et un grand amoureux, mais aussi un auteur majeur de l'Islam moderne. Cette biographie originale, exceptionnellement riche et vivante, est le résultat de dix années de recherches et propose un itinéraire spirituel qui nous amène à pénétrer la pensée du plus grand mystique arabe du siècle dernier. -- Publisher description.

Abstract

Behind 'Abd al-Kader's role of brilliant warrior lay another, that of spiritual master in the direct lineage of Ibn 'Arabi, the Shaikh al-Akbar (the greatest shaikh). The thirty-nine texts translated here were chosen because they represent the major themes of the teaching of 'Abd al-Kader. Many are commentaries on passages from the writings of Ibn 'Arabi. They offer a rare opportunity to share the illumination of a master writing from his own direct experience. -- Back cover.

Abstract

This text challenges existing writing on 'Abd al-Qādir al-Jazā'irī which divides his life into two juxtaposed phases separated by narratives of conversion: from Francophobia to Francophilia, from militarism to pacifism, from activism to quietism, from Islamism to pluralism, from politics to religion. This work's interdisciplinary approach demonstrates that these narratives cannot be sustained in light of the evidence. Rather, they can be shown to originate in specific historical, cultural, and methodological tendencies within western societies and academies. Drawing on primary materials including archival documents and selections from his own writing, it constructively critiques his reception in the literature while advancing a continuous and contextualised account of his life and ideas. These include the relating of his ethico-religious and jurisprudential concerns to his political decision-making, and a resituating of his mystical writings within a definite moral, epistemological, and political context. By problematising these interpretive issues, this thesis aims at opening new avenues for understanding even as it offers its own solutions. In so doing, this study contributes to discussions on Sufism, political Islam, and east-west relations.
