Resumo
Esta dissertação de mestrado propõe analisar as aproximações entre o conceito europeu de “modernidade” e o de “Pan-islamismo” formulado pelo autor iraniano Sayyid Jamāl al-Dīn al-Afġhānī (1838/39-1897) e defendido em seu Jornal al'Urwa al-Wuṯqà publicado entre os meses de março e outubro de 1884, assim como outros breves artigos escritos no Jornal francês L’Intrasigeant de 1883. O contexto do nascimento do Pan-islamismo é o do avanço do colonialismo e Imperialismo europeu sobre a Ásia acompanhados do ideal moderno. O resultado deste encontro teve diversas consequências para ambos, no mundo árabe e muçulmano, por exemplo, um novo movimento de renovação cultural, social, política e economia chamado de Nahḍa (Renascimento) aflora. No campo religioso o pensador Jamāl al-Dīn al-Afġhānī observando o avanço imperialista sobre o Oriente passa a atuar politicamente pela união dos povos islâmicos através da fé, o Pan-islamismo. A dissertação busca compreender se ideais modernos como “nação”, “civilização” e “progresso” aparecem nos artigos destes jornais, assim como, examinar a compreensão e o papel destes conceitos para al-Afġhānī, e se com isto buscava refutar, adaptar ou absorver a modernidade europeia. O resultado desta dissertação compreende que o Pan-islamismo de al-Afġhānī é, na verdade, o reencontro do islã com antigas tradições, a tentativa de retorno a um passado ideal e uma forma de compreensão do tempo histórico do Islã.
This master's thesis aims to analyze the approximations between the European concept of “modernity” and that of “Pan-Islamism” formulated by the Iranian author Sayyid Jamāl al-Dīn al-Afġhānī (1838/39 - 1897) and defended in his newspaper al'Urwa al-Wuṯqà published between March and October 1884, as well as other brief articles written in the French newspaper L'Intrasigeant in 1883. The context of the birth of pan-Islamism is that of the advance of European colonialism and imperialism over Asia, accompanied by the ideals of modernity. The result of this encounter had several consequences for both the Arab and Muslim worlds, for example, a new movement of cultural, social, political and economic renewal called Nahḍa (Renaissance) emerged. In the religious field, the thinker Jamāl al-Dīn al-Afġhānī, observing the imperialist advance on the East, began to act politically for the union of Muslim peoples through faith, Pan-Islamism. The dissertation seeks to understand whether modern ideals such as “nation”, “civilization” and “progress” appear in the articles of these newspapers, as well as to examine the understanding and role of these concepts for al-Afġhānī, and whether with this he sought to refute, adapt or absorb European modernity. The result of this dissertation is that al-Afġhānī's Pan-Islamism is, in fact, Islam's reunion with ancient traditions, an attempt to return to an ideal past and a way of understanding Islam's historical time.
