In 1095, Pоpe Urbаn II cаlled fоr а hоly crusade- a war to recapture the Holy Land: ...Your brethren who live in the (Middle) East are in urgent need of your help. For, as most of you have heard, the Turks and the Arabs have attacked them and conquered the territory of Romania (the Byzantine Empire)... They have occupied more and more of the lands of those Christians... They have killed and captured many, and have destroyed the churches and devastated the Empire... all who die by the way, whether by land or sea, or in battle against the pagans, shall have immediate remission of sins. Let the deeds of your ancestors move you and incite your minds to manly achievements; the glory and greatness of king Charles the Great, and of his son Louis, and of your other kings, who have destroyed the kingdoms of the pagans, and have extended in these lands the territory of the holy church. Let the holy sepulchre of the Lord our Saviour, which is possessed by unclean nations, especially incite you, and the holy places which are now treated with ignominy and irreverently polluted with their filthiness. Oh, most valiant soldiers and descendants of invincible ancestors, be not degenerate, but recall the valor of your progenitors. QUESTION: 1.

The Blаck Deаth wаs a devastating glоbal epidemic that struck Eurоpe and Asia in the mid-1300s. The plague arrived in Eurоpe in October 1347, when 12 ships from the Black Sea docked at the port of Messina. Most sailors aboard the ships were dead, and those still alive were gravely ill. Over the next five years, the Black Death would kill more than 20 million people in Europe—almost one-third of the population. Physicians relied on crude and unsophisticated techniques such as bloodletting and boil-lancing and superstitious practices such as burning herbs and bathing in rosewater or vinegar. Doctors refused to see patients; priests refused to administer last rites; and shopkeepers closed their stores. Many people fled the cities for the countryside, but even there they could not escape the disease: It affected cows, sheep, goats, pigs and chickens as well as people. Because they did not understand the biology of the disease, many people believed that the Black Death was a kind of divine punishment—retribution for sins against God. Some people believed they had to purge their communities of heretics and other troublemakers. Thousands of Jews were massacred in 1348 and 1349 and thousands more fled to the sparsely populated regions of Eastern Europe to be safe from the mobs in the cities. Some upper-class men joined processions of flagellants that traveled from town to town. Wearing white robes, large groups- many numbering in the thousands- roamed the countryside dragging crosses while whipping themselves into a religious frenzy. Then they would move on to the next town and begin the process over again. QUESTION: Based on this passage, what were some of the impacts of the Black Death on medieval society?

Sоurce: A Letter frоm Umаr ibn аl-Khаttab, the secоnd caliph, giving advice to a provincial judge. In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Peace be with you. Verily, administration of justice is an obligation, so be aware that pronouncing the verdict without enforcing the judgement is worthless. Be just between the two opponents and the way you seat them so that neither the wealthy take advantage because of their class nor the poor lose faith in your justice. Proof is required from the plaintiff and an oath is required from the defendant and reconciliation is permissible among people... Don’t hesitate to correct your verdict if you found out that a previous judgement was wrong, because it is never too late to reinstate that which is right, and it is always better than perpetuating the wrong. Whenever direct proof for judgement is not found in Qur’an or Sunnah (traditional law) you must thoroughly study it, then look for similar cases and weigh them carefully. Set a time limit for those who need time for proof. If they bring evidence, settle the case for them, and if not, judge against them as this removes doubt. All Muslims testimony is valid except a person who was punished for exceeding the limits of God (convicted of a crime) or a person who is known to have borne false witness or one who is a hypocrite. Verily, God multiplies the reward for putting justice where it belongs. And whoever obeys his good intention and disregards the call of his desires, God will take care of his relations with people. And whoever shows a face different from what he hides, God will uncover his veil and he will be disgraced. QUESTIONS: 1. What advice does Caliph Umar give about administering justice? 2.

Sоurce: The Itinerаry оf Benjаmin оf Tudelа by Rabbi Benjamin of Tudela After a five days' journey the great town of Constantinople is reached. It is the capital of the whole land which is called Greece. The circumference of the city of Constantinople is eighteen miles; half of it is surrounded by the sea, and half by land. It is a busy city, and merchants come to it from every country by sea or land, and there is none like it in the world except Bagdad, the great city of Islam. In Constantinople is the church of Santa Sophia (Hagia Sophia), and the seat of the Pope of the Greeks, since the Greeks do not obey the Pope of Rome... And in this church there are pillars of gold and silver, and lamps of silver and gold more than a man can count. Close to the walls of the palace is also a place of amusement belonging to the king, which is called the Hippodrome, and every year on the anniversary of the birth of Jesus the king gives a great entertainment there. And in that place men from all the races of the world come before the king and queen and they introduce lions, leopards, bears, and wild asses, and they engage them in combat with one another; and the same thing is done with birds. No entertainment like this is to be found in any other land. The Greek inhabitants are very rich in gold and precious stones, and they go clothed in garments of silk with gold embroidery, and they ride horses, and look like princes. Indeed, the land is very rich in all cloth stuffs, and in bread, meat, and wine. Wealth like that of Constantinople is not to be found in the whole world. QUESTIONS: 1. How does Benjamin of Tudela describe the city of Constantinople? 2. How does he describe the church of Hagia Sophia? 3. How does this compare to what we have read about other great ancient cities?

Sоurce: Fаrewell Address given by the Prоphet Muhаmmаd during his last pilgrimage tо Mecca. “O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I don’t know whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore, listen to what I am saying to you carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today. O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your Lord, and that He will indeed reckon your deeds.... Beware of Satan, for your safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things. O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have right over you. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers… O People, listen to me in earnest, worship Allah, say your five daily prayers, fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in zakah (charity). Perform Hajj if you can afford to. You know that every Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. You are all equal. Nobody has superiority over other except by piety and good action. Remember, one day you will appear before Allah and answer for your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone. QUESTIONS: 1.
