Mohammad Ali AMIR-MOEZZI, Directeur d’études, École Pratique des Hautes Études/PSL

« Nouvelles recherches sur les origines de l’islam et de l’imamologie shi’ite »

A l’occasion de la parution de son livre La Preuve de Dieu. La mystique shi’ite à travers l’œuvre de Kulaynî (Cerf, 2018), M. A. Amir-Moezzi expose, à travers quelques thèmes, ses dernières recherches sur la question encore bien énigmatique des origines de l’islam et du shi’isme : le caractère problématique du Coran, la dimension apocalyptique du message de Muhammad et le milieu biblique qui l’a vu naître, le problème de l’avènement du Messie, les relations christologiques entre Jésus et ‘Alî.

Mohammad Ali AMIR-MOEZZI est Directeur d’études à l’École Pratique des Hautes Études/PSL où il occupe la chaire de l’islamologie classique. Membre de l’Académie ambrosienne (Milan) et de plusieurs sociétés savantes, il est l’auteur de nombreux livres et articles dont, parmi les plus récents : Le Coran silencieux et le Coran parlant (CNRS Éditions, 2012) et l’ouvrage collectif, L’ésotérisme shi’ite, ses racines et ses prolongements (Brepols, 2016).

Lieu: INaLCO, amphi 6, 65 rue des Grands Moulins, 75013 Paris.
Organisateur : Amr Ahmed (INaLCO), Samra Azarnouche (EPHE), Oliver Bast (Sorbonne nouvelle – Paris 3), Agnès Devictor (Université Paris 1 – Panthéon-Sorbonne), Julien Thorez (CNRS)

A Christian Shīʿī, and Other Curious Confreres: Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr of Córdoba on Getting Along with Unbelievers

How did medieval Muslims think that they, as Muslims, ought to conduct their social interactions with non-Muslims? Modern scholars have usually sought answers to this normative question in Islamic legal sources. Yet premodern Muslim authorities also treated it in genres other than those that are usually considered part of “Islamic law”.

Custom as a Legal Principle of Legislation for Shi’i Law

Cet article soutient que le principe de lacune ( lacuna) dans le droit shi’ite peut donner aux juristes la possibilité de dépasser les paramètres traditionnels de la shari’a. Ce principe autorise les juristes à aller au-delà de la loi islamique dans la mesure où ils seraient confrontés à un problème légal qui n’aurait pas été textuellement interdit par les sources écrites.
