Condolences - Haji Zeynu (May Allah's Mercy be on his soul)

May 22, 2013 | Badr Ethiopia | Washington DC

We have learned of the passing of Haji Zeynu, a giant Ethiopian Muslim scholar who has contributed to the spreading of authentic Islamic knowledge and to the sprouting of hundreds of learned men and women in Ethiopia. His legacy is replete with the true guidance of the young and old to the right path of Islam, which cherishes the seeking of Qur’anic and Ahadith knowledge and its subsequent practice in one’s real life. Although, Haji Zeynu approached 100 years of life on this fleeting earth, the knowledge he imparted on generations of students and teachers alike will continue to enlighten Muslims of every walk of life. May Allah (SWT) have mercy on his soul and provide him with Jennatul Furdows.  We would also like to relay our condolences to his immediate family and extended family members around the globe.

Review: ኢትዮጵያዊያን ሙስሊሞች (Ethiopian Muslims) – A Book by Ahmedin Jebel (አሕመዲን ጀበል)

May 10, 2013 | Libah Lencoo/ሊባህ ሌንጮ | The Gulele Post

The History of Islam in Ethiopia was extensively written by foreign scholars. The Arabs like Ibn Fadulullah Al-Umari and Muhammad Taqi’uddin Al-Maqrizi have taken the lead to record the lifes and states of Ethiopian Muslims as early as fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Modern European scholars like Enrico Cerulli, John Spencer Trimingham, Ewald Wagner, Alessandro Gori, Ulrich Braukemper and others have investigated the rich culture and history of Ethiopian Muslims and turned them into many scholarly books and journal articles. But Modern Ethiopian Muslim scholars themselves have exerted low effort in studying and writing their own history. Although some distinguished personalities like Prof. Hussein Ahmed and Prof Ahmad Zakaria of Addis Ababa University and Professor Muhammad Hassan of Georgia State University were doing their best throughout their scholarly careers, most of their works have been in inaccessible to ordinary readers in Ethiopia; the reason behind this is that the works of these scholars were usually published abroad which makes their availability in local markets very difficult.
