Abstract

This research explores the historical foundations and development of the Zionist movement, emphasizing the involvement of European colonial powers in advancing its goals and the subsequent emergence of Palestinian nationalism as a counterforce. Employing a qualitative methodology that includes historical analysis and a comprehensive literature review, the study investigates the repercussions of Zionism on Palestinian society, the national resistance against the Zionist settler-colonial initiative, and the dominant efforts to marginalize Palestinian historical narratives. The findings reveal that the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, facilitated by colonial support, served as a pivotal moment in the Zionist agenda. Strategic errors by Arab nations and Palestinian leadership contributed to a weakened campaign for Palestinian independence. Despite these challenges, Palestinians have demonstrated remarkable resilience in maintaining their identity and asserting their rights. The study concludes that achieving lasting peace necessitates confronting historical injustices, safeguarding human rights, and promoting equitable and honest dialogue between the parties involved. It underscores the imperative for international assistance in formulating a just and comprehensive resolution. Furthermore, the research highlights the significance of drawing lessons from historical complexities to foster a more equitable and peaceful future in Palestine.

Abstract

The Islamic law of rebellion (bughāt) is traditionally interpreted as a protective framework or a neutral theological derivation designed to regulate internal political conflicts. Challenging these static interpretations, this study employs a genealogical deconstruction synthesized with social constructionism and power/knowledge frameworks to investigate al-Māwardī’s al-Aḥkām al-Sulṭāniyyah as an artifact of imperial survival. Findings reveal that al-Māwardī’s formulation of bughāt functions as a sophisticated "technology of power" engineered to mitigate the material impotence of the Abbasid Caliphate under Buwayhid hegemony. By constructing "legal fictions" of symbolic sovereignty, the text weaponizes the ambiguity between rebellion and banditry (ḥirābah). This architecture of exclusion utilizes the criteria of military strength (shawka) and plausible interpretation (ta’wīl) not to shield rebels, but to discipline the social body and criminalize dissenters who lack state-mirrored organizational structures. Consequently, the law transforms political opposition into a criminalized "non-subject" status, ensuring the state’s monopoly on legitimate violence. This research concludes that classical fiqh is a historically contingent tool of hegemonic legitimation, exposing the inherent exclusionary mechanisms that underpin the preservation of centralized authority.
