Fantastic contribution not only to scholarship, but potentially to college classroom instruction trying to show students how divination worked in another time and place...

Ever wanted to know what the future holds? Not to despair! @HulsterKristof’s contribution allows you to build your own divinatory device, modeled after an early 16th-century Mamluk lot book. So find yourself a pair of scissors and a muqāraʿa partner and divine away!

2024 is currently dedicated to the mihna and its aftermath over at @alusuralwusta. an article by Tillier, and now a new one by @deepcutiqtibas!
New article alert! UW returns to Abbasid Baghdad, this time to the persecution of Sufis in the 3rd/9th & 4th/10th centuries. @deepcutiqtibas analyzes narratives of the Inquisition (miḥna) of Ghulām Khalīl and examines the role of these accounts in the texts of later Sufis

New article alert, kicking off 2024! Join us today with a new article by Mathieu Tillier about a forgotten judge of the Abbasid period—his teachers, his works, & some mysteries about his life. & uncover what he thought about Baghdad in the aftermath of the miḥna (inquisition)

Our President @ArezouAzad recently delivered the MEM Lifetime Achievement Award to Carole Hillenbrand. Watch for Prof. Hillenbrand's remarks in next year's @alusuralwusta
There are many people to thank, including the editors of Al-'Usur al-Wusta, Alison Vacca @medievalqabq and Zayde Antrim @zaydeantrim, for their help and willingness to publish an Arabic critical edition in UW.
This article includes @JN_Hendrickson's Arabic critical edition of many of the fifteenth-century fatwas discussed in her book, Leaving Iberia. #moriscos
New article alert! “What is the status of our Muslim brothers who live under infidel laws and who have not moved to the adjacent Muslim lands?” this is a question asked of a Maliki jurist in 15th-century Fez, Morocco. Read his response in this new article by @JN_Hendrickson

Important intervention from Lamia Balafrej on gender, slavery, and automata!
New article alert! Lamia Balafrej delves into the politics of technology in medieval Islam. It’s easy to see automata of enslaved women as objectification, but how much of that is modern projection? Reading Sufi tales alongside images of automata opens up new avenues of inquiry
new call for abstracts for a thematic dossier on the medieval Indian Ocean. please share widely!

@VefaErginbas @alusuralwusta more or less fulfills this function now. It is open access and has great record of articles (some even long form), a strong g presence at MESA, and committed lead editors with a vision.
I discovered this letter shape distinction which was thought lost in Arabic a couple of years ago and published an article on it in @alusuralwusta. You can download and read it here for free! journals.library.columbia.edu/index.php/alus…

It's bittersweet to see this, but am so happy to see that it's out in the world.

This is a wonderful article.
New article alert! A 7th-century Armenian source refers to an Islamic military campaign against Constantinople as early as 33-4/654. is this impossibly early?? @ClassyArabic offers new readings of Arabic poetry to support the claim of such a campaign before Muʿāwiya's reign
