This research spotlights the cultural and the intellectual life in Jerusalem during the Ottoman Period and it emphasizes on the historical and the spatial aspect of the First Kiblah in order to remain alive in the Arabian intellect and the new genera
tion to recognize its ancient civilized history, cultural treasures and its contributions in the Arab and the Islamic civilization
This research was based on the study of two records of the Sharia Court in Damascus, and they are kept in the Directorate of Historical Documents in Damascus under (4/3/2) and / 268 /. The first record includes the cases recorded in this court in the
year 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1795, and contains (130) documents distributed on (72) pages of the average measurement, and begins with document number (1) In the middle of Jumada II 1210 AH, and ends with document No. (0 3 1) on page (72), which was partially damaged but the document was not completed with the end of the page, so its history is not known. The penultimate document and its number (129) are found on page 71.
The second record (37 1) contains a document, and begins with document No. (1) dated Jumada II (224 AH), and ends with the penultimate document - the last document is incomplete and undated - dated Ramadan 1224 AH. However, the documents are not limited to the months mentioned But rather beyond the other months of the year. The documents studied differ in terms of the line and the safety of the papers on which they were written. We have been intercepted by many documents written in a rather illegible handwriting. Some of the records have been eroded, but it is noted that all the documents are not keen on the grammar of the language, and include general words, and similar to the method of construction in general literature era of decay.
The study of Syria and Iraq after the end of the Ottoman era in Damascus in 1918 until 1933 A.D. constitutes an important focus in the study of the contemporary history of the Arab world in several respects, as there were many colonial ambitions abou
t what remained of the Arab Mashreq after the occupation of the West (African), especially in the late rule of the state The Ottoman for him, which was called a sick man
This research work tackles the strange contradiction between the political
history and the literary history of the Ottoman period.
In the first history, there is a general agreement about its end at the finish
of the First World War. In the second
, it is commonly held that is end is
with the Napolyonic campaign on Egypt in 179g, but some literary
historians did not agree; despite this they used the common belief
consequently, this work notes that this problem led to two dangerous
things: first, the misunderstanding and the underestimation of the
Ottoman literature in its important objective and artistic values.
After pointing to this problem, the work tries to trace the continued
Ottoman elements in the literature of the Renaissance period. It finds out
also that this period is so active with the Ottoman reign more than any
other period. This in its turn led to the conclusion that the movement of
the late Arab literature into modern Arab literature was gradual.
Accordingly, this research work considers the First World War as the end
of the Arab literature during the Ottoman period.
Throughout the ages, Egypt had the honour of being the
country where the Kiswa (the embroidered black cloth covering the
Kaaba) had been manufactured. The Kiswa had been made in Egypt
– renowned for manufacturing such a textile - from the Pre-Isla
mic
Age down to the Islamic Age and throughout the successive Arabic
and Islamic historical stages. The Kiswa was looked at as a
political, military, and civilizational emblem for it was an emblem
of sovereignty in both the Arab and Islamic Worlds. The Mamluki
sultans had endeavored to achieve such a status since the very
beginning of their being in power and the rulers of Egypt. The
Mamluki sultans had maintained the hounor of having this dignified
religious emblem and they were involved in conflicts with other
powers just to maintain their patronage of this holy emblem which
denotes political, military, and cultural sovereignty.
