Taubat-un-Nasooh: Religious implications among families of 19th century Ashrafia of colonial India
Journal Title: Journal of Islamic Thought and Civilization (JITC) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 0
Abstract
Nasooh starts the discussion on religious matters as is the trend in traditional Muslim families of Ashraf. His way of thinking had already seen a sea change. The reason behind this mental transformation is his dream, but after observing the spoiled ways of his home he did not mention these religious issues in front of his siblings. The character of Nasooh as the head of the family of Ashrafia, represented the conventional school of thought. Nazir Ahmed highlighted the sociopolitical circumstances of Ashrafia and their religious state of mind, doubts and misunderstanding of the youth of the Ashrafia about religion in those times.
