Heredity and Social Progress

1903"Prof. Patten's little book, which he modestly calls an essay, abounds in bold speculation and startling conclusions. Were it conveyed in some other form than that peculiar language of evolution, so clear and satisfactory to the evolutionary student, but so repellent to the ordinary untrained reader, the book would make a veritable sensation." - New York Times, 4 April 1903. "How is the social surplus transformed into permanent conditions and mental traits? An answer will be given in the following pages, or at least an endeavor will be made to throw some light on it." - page 5. Simon Patten [1852-1922] was chair of the Wharton School of Business.

OTTOMAN BROADSIDE CHART OF ISLAMIC INHERITANCE LAWBiblio.com

Tawd h al-Mushkil . Clarifying the Problems of Inheritance Law.

réf. 66246Izmir 15th day of Jumada al-Akhir AH 1300 April 23 1883. Original broadside 80 x 50 cm in Ottoman Turkish and Arabic printed on laid paper with double-headed eagle watermark embellished with two crescent moon and star symbols neatly rubricated and coloured by a contemporary hand in a palette of pastel shades of pink yellow pale orange and purple. Old folds margins with some light wrinkling and a few nicks some minor losses to intersections of folds with some paper restorations a few instances of light browning generally a very good well-preserved example. This broadside presents the far id — the system of inheritance prescribed by the Qur an and elaborated over centuries of Islamic jurisprudence — in the form of a structured diagram dedicated to Sultan Abdülhamid II the thirty-fourth ruler of the Ottoman Empire and the last to exercise effective autocratic power over its domains. It was composed on the fifteenth day of Jumada al-Akhir in the year 1300 AH April 23 1883 by Kulevi Müftizade and Süleyman Hilmi the latter holding the rank of Devriyye a position in the Ottoman religious-scholarly hierarchy authorising him to teach and adjudicate at a defined level of the medrese system something approximating a licensed judge. The broadside presents the far id inheritance system in a structured diagrammatic form setting out the prescribed shares of all categories of heirs after burial expenses and debts have been settled. The extensive introductory text opens with a formal dedication to Abdülhamid II and continues with a concise historical survey of Islamic inheritance jurisprudence. The principal diagram sets out the prescribed shares of all categories of heirs: daughters widows mothers and collateral relatives. Shares are calculated after the deceased's burial expenses and outstanding debts have been settled. The system turns on a fundamental distinction between quota-heirs dhaw al-far id those entitled to fixed fractional portions of the estate one-half one-third one-sixth and so on and residuary heirs asaba who receive whatever remains after the fixed shares have been distributed. Four male quota-heirs are identified husband father paternal grandfather and maternal brother and eight females: wife daughter granddaughter mother grandmother full sister paternal sister and maternal sister. Depending on the configuration of surviving relatives certain heirs may shift between the quota and residuary categories. The chart concludes with the extended family group dhaw al-arh m who inherit only in the absence of both quota-heirs and residuaries. The far id system is among the most precisely codified elements of classical Islamic jurisprudence and its Qur anic basis has given it a sanctity and stability that have resisted modification over fourteen centuries. One of its notable features frequently observed by both Muslim jurists and later Western commentators is its explicit guarantee of inheritance rights to women at a time when most legal systems afforded them none. Daughters receive half the share of sons; widows and mothers receive defined fractions; sisters are specifically enumerated as quota-heirs. The Ayd n vilayet centered on zmir Smyrna was one of the most prosperous and cosmopolitan provinces of the Ottoman Empire — a major commercial hub with a mixed population of Muslims Greeks Armenians and Jews and a well-developed provincial administrative apparatus including its own press. That this Arabic-language inheritance law text was produced there in 1883 reflects the continuing operation of the Sharia court system in provincial Ottoman life where religious judges required authoritative reference materials for the administration of inheritance cases. Süleyman Hilmi's Devriyye rank placed him within the Ottoman ilmiye hierarchy — the class of religious scholars and jurists — and his co-authorship of a formally licensed and copyright-protected legal broadside suggests both professional standing and commercial ambition. The copyright notice is itself noteworthy: Ottoman intellectual property protection of this kind enforced through the author's personal seal was not unusual by the 1880s yet it remains a detail that surprises modern readers. The dedication to Abdülhamid II who had come to power in 1876 and was actively cultivating pan-Islamic sentiment as a tool of political legitimacy is consistent with the tone of religious-legal publication throughout his reign. The entire Ottoman legal system that this broadside served — Sharia courts far id inheritance rules the ilmiye hierarchy — would be abolished in the reforms of 1924–26. Composed April 23 1883 15 Jumada al-Akhir 1300 AH by Kulevi Müftizade and Süleyman Hilmi. Printed at the provincial press of the Ayd n vilayet presumably at Izmir through the agency of Ziya Efendi under Board of Education license 674 dated 1301. This is the first time we have encountered this place of publication. A bookseller's stamp appears at the foot. Copies not bearing the author's personal seal were declared counterfeit at the time of publication. Generally speaking large ephemeral broadsides like this tend to survive in low numbers. More specifically examples of this broadside were likely discarded when the jurisprudential tradition it represents was abolished between 1924 and 1926 when the new Turkish Republic adopted a modern civil code in its place. [Izmir], 15th day of Jumada al-Akhir, AH 1300 (April 23, 1883). unknown
