Abstract

Socialism and Islam, or Islamic socialism, are two streams of thought that have continued to develop in Middle Eastern and North African societies for centuries. These two streams frequently reinforce each other. This article examines the debate and practical implementation of Islamic socialism in the thought of contemporary Muslim philosophers such as Jamal al-Dīn al-Afghanī, Salamah Mūsa, Muṣṭafa al-Sibaʽī, and ‘Ali Sharī‘atī. This study used a comparative approach by exploring primary sources from contemporary Muslim thinkers who are the subject of the study. The findings showed that socialist Islamic thinkers have creative and original thought patterns. They intensively and comprehensively explored Islamic teachings and traditions to explain and build a complete ‘Islamic Socialism’, not just a patchwork between ‘Socialism’ and ‘Islam’. In addition, some intellectuals from the modern Muslim world created theoretical ideas and showed how Islamic socialism was implemented and realized in the form of institutions.

Abstract

This article examines the development of Islamic historiography through the framework of epistemic archaeology, drawing on Michel Foucault’s theories of discourse, power, and knowledge. Employing a critical-historical and genealogical methodology, the study integrates close textual analysis of classical Islamic sources—such as hadith, sīrah, maghāzī, and asmā’ al-rijāl—with discourse analysis to trace how historical narratives were shaped by theological, legal, and political interests. It examines the complex role of early transmitters, particularly the ṣaḥābah, in constructing the foundations of historical authority, and highlights how definitions of authenticity and legitimacy evolved amid sectarian and epistemological contestations. The research explores the transition from oral transmission to systematic historiographical writing in Arabic, followed by the Persianization of Islamic historical narratives under the Ghaznavid dynasty. Rather than treating Islamic historiography as a linear or unified tradition, this study argues that it constitutes a dynamic and heterogeneous field marked by multiple epistemic ruptures and reconfigurations. By situating these shifts within a Foucauldian analytic, the article shows how Islamic historical writing functioned not only as a record of the past but also as a mechanism for producing truth, governing memory, and regulating religious authority within diverse Islamic communities.
