Brill Islamic Piety in Medieval Syria: Mosques, Cemeteries and Sermons under the Zangids and Ayyūbids (1146-1260)
Book SynopsisA study of religious thought and practice across a broad social spectrum, but within a well-defined historical context, this book is an interdisciplinary endeavor that incorporates the tools of philology, social-history and historical-anthropology. Focusing on the mosques, public assemblies, cemeteries and shrines of Syrian Muslims in the period of the crusades and the anti-Frankish jihad, the book describes and deciphers religious rites and experiences, liturgical calendars, spiritual leadership, and perceptions of impiety and dissent. Working from a perspective that breaks down the dichotomization of religion into 'official' and 'popular,' it exposes the negotiation, construction and dissemination of hybrid forms of religious life. The result is an intimate and complex presentation of the texture of medieval Islamic piety.Trade ReviewWinner of the Tel Aviv Book Award for Middle Eastern Studies 2008 "Talmon-Heller is able to portray aspects of Islamic piety along with multifold interpretations and debates. Beyond this superb scholarship, it is the ability to keep her readers immersed in the world of medieval Syria, and to touch the humanity therein, that makes her book refreshing." Adam R. Gaiser, International Journal of Middle East Studies 42.1 "Daniella Talmon-Heller has given scholars of many fields, including cultural history, anthropology, and religion, a gift of meticulous research and lively prose. Reading the book is a delightful experience for the specialist, as the copious anecdotes Talmon-Heller relates from her sources (often with a full Arabic transliteration) capture the sensibilities and senses of humor that pervade literary production from this period." Zayde Antrim, Trinity College, Mamluk Studies Review, Vol. 13, No. 2 "Talmon-Heller’s work is necessarily specialized and will therefore be most helpful to scholars of the medieval period. The book would fit well into a graduate course on the Crusades or in a course that includes a section on “popular” religious practices in the medieval Islamic period (or indeed a course that challenges a popular/elite dichotomy)." Adam R. Gaiser, Florida State University, International Journal of Middle East Studies 42:1 "A most welcome contribution to the fields of history and historiography of Syria and Egypt in the twelfth to fifteenth centuries." Yehoshua Frenkel, Bulletin of the School of Oriental & African Studies 72

Brill The Ẓāhirīs: Their Doctrine and their History. A Contribution to the History of Islamic Theology
Book SynopsisIgnaz Goldziher wrote his book ‘Die Zahiriten’ in 1883. The English translation of this standard work on Islamic jurisprudence appeared in 1971. The book has been in print ever since. This new edition in the Brill Classics in Islam series shows that The Ẓāhirīs has not lost any of its actuality. The individual that adheres to the principles of madhhab al-Ẓāhir, the Islamic legal school, is called Ẓāhirī. Goldziher gives an extensive presentation of the Ẓāhirīte school, its doctrine and the position of its representatives within orthodox Islam. Ẓāhirism accepts only the facts clearly revealed by sensible, rational and linguistic intuitions, controlled and corroborated by Qurʾānic revelation. This history of Islamic theology sheds light on the Ẓāhirīte legal interpretation vis-à-vis other legal schools and gives an interesting insight in questions like ‘are all prescriptions and prohibitions in Islamic law commanded or forbidden?’Trade Review"Wat is surprising is how intricately [Goldziher] managed to weave a rather compelling [...] narrative despite his limited resources. Overall, as with all things Goldziher, the works remains a necessary reference for all modern Islamicists interested in the early development of Islamic law and, in particular, the Zahiri school."

Brill Dictionary of Arabic and allied loanwords: Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, Galician and kindred dialects
Book SynopsisOne of the main cultural consequences of the contacts between Islam and the West has been the borrowing of hundreds of words, mostly of Arabic but also of other important languages of the Islamic world, such as Persian, Turkish, Berber, etc. by Western languages. Such loanwords are particularly abundant and relevant in the case of the Iberian Peninsula because of the presence of Islamic states in it for many centuries; their study is very revealing when it comes to assess the impact of those states in the emergence and shaping of Western civilization. Some famous Arabic scholars, above all R. Dozy, have tackled this task in the past, followed by other attempts at increasing and improving his pioneering work; however, the progresses achieved during the last quarter of the 20th c., in such fields as Andalusi and Andalusi Romance dialectology and lexicology made it necessary to update all the available information on this topic and to offer it in English.

Brill The Spiritual Background of Early Islam: Studies in Ancient Arab Concepts
Book SynopsisIn a series of essays devoted to key terms and ideas in Islam, Bravmann argues on the basis of pre-Islamic and early Islamic texts for an Arabian background to the rise of the religion. In pursuing a through philological examination of the evidence, Bravmann finds core values and ideas of Islam deeply embedded in ancient Arab linguistic expression. His work continues to provide a critical element in the debates about the emergence of Islam and cannot be ignored by anyone trying to assess the complex historiographical problems that surround the issue.Trade Review"...a must for the library of every Arabist and Islamologist." – S.D. Goitein, in: JAOS, 1974 "This work is to be most thoroughly recommended." – W. Montgomery Watt, in: Bull. of the School of Oriental and African Studies, 1973 "...un riche champ d'investigations à la sociologie religieuse." – Jean-Pierre Charnay, in: Archives de Sociologie des Religions "...l'érudition philologique redoutable de M.M. Bravmann." – O. Carré, in: Revue des sciences philosophiques et théologiques, 1976 "Bravmann's careful philological studies provide helpful data..." – A.T.

Brill Beyond Death: The Mystical Teachings of ʿAyn al-Quḍāt al-Hamadhānī
Book SynopsisThe twelfth-century Iranian mystic ‘Ayn al-Quḍāt al-Hamadhānī (d. 1131) wrote vividly of his explorations of death as a state of consciousness which he experienced while alive. This state and his visions of Doomsday and the innumerable non-corporeal worlds that lie past the world of matter confront him with paradoxical realities that upset the notional understanding of faith. The present book concerns itself with a discussion on the subject of death as it is viewed by one of the defining mystic scholars of medieval Iran. Based on medieval manuscripts and primary sources in classical Persian and Arabic, this book explores the significance of this important Iranian mystic and his insights on the nature of reality in light of death.Trade Review"... this monograph provides a valuable and thought-provoking study of ʿAyn al-Qudat al-Hamadhani's works." Stephen Burge in Journal of Shiʿa Islamic Studies 5.1 (2012), 98-101. “Beyond Death […] offers readers a glimpse into the sublime nature of ʿAyn al-Quḍāt’s vision. And this is surely because Papan-Matin’s translations from the Tamhīdāt are often able to capture, with considerable beauty, the soaring and tantalizingly elliptical nature of ʿAyn al-Quḍāt’s Persian prose.” Mohammed Rustom in Journal of Sufi Studies 2.2 (2013), 203-206.

Brill Reconsidering Islam in a South Asian Context
Book SynopsisDespite late reconsideration, a dominant paradigm rooted in Orientalist essentialisations of Islam as statically ‘legalistic’ and Muslims as uniformly ‘transgressive’ when local customs are engaged, continues to distort perspectives of South Asia's past and present. This has led to misrepresentations of pre-colonial Muslim norms and undue emphasis on colonial reforms alone when charting the course to post-coloniality. This book presents and challenges staple perspectives with a comprehensive reinterpretation of doctrinal sources, literary expressions and colonial records spanning the period from the reign of the 'Great Mughals' to end of the 'British Raj' (1526-1947). The result is an alternative vision of this transformative period in South Asian history, and an original paradigm of Islamic doctrine and Muslim practice applicable more broadly.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Translation and Transliteration Note Maps Chronology Introduction Part I—Foundations: Islam and the Mughals Chapter One: The Categories of Doctrinal Islam Chapter Two: Indicism, Intoxication and Sobriety among the ‘Great Mughals’ Part II—Transformations: Islam and Colonialism Chapter Three: Codification and a ‘New’ Sober Path Chapter Four: Anglicisation and the ‘Old Islam’ Chapter Five: Objectification and a ‘New’ Intoxicated Way Chapter Six: Nationalism and the ‘New Islam’ Bibliography Glossary Index

Brill The Islamic Scholarly Tradition: Studies in History, Law, and Thought in Honor of Professor Michael Allan Cook
Book SynopsisThe volume contains highly original articles on Islamic history, law, and thought, each either proposing new hypotheses or readjusting existing ones. The contributions range from studies in the formulation of the pre-Islamic Arabian calendar to notes on the "blood-money group" in Islamic law, and to transformations in Arabic logic in the post-Avicennan period. Prepared by former students of Michael A. Cook, to whom this volume is dedicated, these studies not only shed new light on the development of the Islamic scholarly tradition from various perspectives, but together they also represent the honoree's vast, profound, and continuing impact on the field. This collection of highly empirical articles is intended for scholars and students specializing in various subfields within Islamic Studies.Trade Review"... a beautiful collection of articles." Anna Ayşe Akasoy in Ilahiyat Studies 3.2 (2012). “Ce bel ensemble d’articles constitue non seulement undigne hommage à un grand chercheur mais aussi un témoignage de ce quepeut produire la relation de maître à élève, exemple précieux à une époque oùle marché de l’enseignement tend à se dématérialiser et à se dépersonnaliser.” J. Dean in REVUE D’HISTOIRE ET DE PHILOSOPHIE RELIGIEUSES 2012, Tome 92 n° 4.

Brill The Arabic Manuscript Tradition: A Glossary of Technical Terms and Bibliography
Book SynopsisThis book, covering the entire spectrum of Arabic manuscripts, and especially the handwritten book, consists of a glossary of technical terms and a bibliography. The technical terms, collected from a variety of sources embrace a vast range of topics dealing with the making and reading (studying) of Arabic manuscripts. They are: the Arabic script, penmanship, writing materials and implements, the make-up of the codex, copying and correction, decoration and bookbinding, as well as the transmission of texts and former ownership. A similar coverage is reflected in the bibliography.Trade Review“…an indispensable research, library, and archival companion for students and researchers that are interested in bibliomancy, calligraphy, specifically Arabic, Qur’anic manuscripts, penmanship, bookbinding, papermaking, decoration, and the tools associated with all these crafts. Praise for this monumental effort is essentially superfluous and no library or centre which is concerned with the Islamic manuscript and book tradition should be without the set. Academics and researchers would also find the books as indispensable companions.” Amidu Olalekan Sanni, JOAS, 2010

Brill Jewish-Muslim Relations in Past and Present: A Kaleidoscopic View
Book SynopsisThis volume assembles multidisciplinary research on the Judaeo-Islamic tradition in medieval and modern contexts. The introduction discusses the nature of this tradition and proposes the more fluid and inclusive designation of “Jewish-Muslim Relations.” Contributions highlight diverse aspects of Jewish-Muslim relations in medieval and modern contexts, including the academic study of Jewish history, the Qur’anic notion of the “upright community” referring to the “People of the Book,” Jews in medieval fatwas, use of Arabic and Hebrew script, Jewish prayer in Christian Europe and the Islamic world, the permissibility of Arabic music in modern Jewish thought, Jewish and Muslim feminist exegesis, modern Sephardic and Morisco identity, popular Tunisian song, Jewish-Muslim relations in cinema and A.S. Yehuda’s study of an 11th-century Jewish mystic.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements List of Figures List of Contributors Transliteration Note Introduction Josef Meri 1 The Academic Study of Islamicate Jewry Norman A.

Brill Christian-Muslim Dialogue: Perspectives of Four Lebanese Thinkers
Book SynopsisLebanon is a significant region of encounter between Muslims and Christians in the Middle East. This book examines how Christian-Muslim dialogue is envisioned by four present-day Lebanese thinkers: Great Ayatollah Muhammad Husayn Fadlallah and Doctor Mahmoud Ayoub from the Shiite tradition, and Metropolitan Georges Khodr and Doctor, Father Mouchir Basile Aoun from the Eastern Christian Antiochian tradition. The study seeks to bring the four thinkers into dialogue on a number of topics, including doctrinal themes, ethical principles and the issue of political power-sharing in Lebanon. All four thinkers make several suggestions for facilitating mutual understanding and transcending old debates. The concept of God and the principle of neighbourly love seem to have particular potential as fruitful bases for further dialogue.

Brill Analysing Muslim Traditions: Studies in Legal, Exegetical and Maghāzī Ḥadīth
Book SynopsisSince its inception, the study of Ḥadīth conducted by scholars trained in the Western academic tradition has been marked by sharp methodological debates. A focal issue is the origin and development of traditions on the advent of Islam. Scholars' verdicts on these traditions have ranged from “late fabrications without any historical value for the time concerning which the narrations purport to give information” to “early, accurately transmitted texts that allow one to reconstruct Islamic origins”. Starting from previous contributions to the debate, the studies collected in this volume show that, by careful analysis of their texts and chains of transmission, the history of Muslim traditions can be reconstructed with a high degree of probability and their historicity assessed afresh.Trade ReviewWorld Prize for the Book of the Year of the Islamic Republic of Iran, February 2012.Table of ContentsPreface 1.

Brill The Ocean of the Soul: Men, the World and God in the Stories of Farīd al-Dīn ‘Aṭṭār
Book SynopsisThe Ocean of the Soul is one of the great works of the German Orientalist Hellmut Ritter (1892-1971). It presents a comprehensive analysis of the writings of the mystical Persian poet Farīd al-Dīn ‘Aṭṭār who is thought to have died at an advanced age in April 1221 when the Mongols destroyed his home city of Nīshāpūr in the north-east of Iran. The book, which resulted from decades of investigation of literary and historical sources, was first published in 1955 and has since remained unsurpassed not only as the definitive study of ‘Aṭṭār's world of ideas but as an indispensable guide to understanding pre-modern Islamic literature in general. Quoting at length from ‘Aṭṭār and other Islamic sources, Ritter sketches an extraordinarily vivid portrait of the Islamic attitude toward life, characteristic developments in pious and ascetic circles, and, in conclusion, various dominant mystical currents of thought and feeling. Special attention is given to a wide range of views on love, love in all its manifestations, including homosexuality and the commonplace sūfī adoration of good-looking youths. Ritter's approach is throughout based onprecise philological interpretation of primary sources, several of which he has himself made available in critical editions.Trade Review'[This] translation will serve to make Ritter's masterful work accessible to a far broader audience... when genuine understanding of the spiritual dimensions of Islam is rather sparse...'

Brill Documents and the History of the Early Islamic World
Book SynopsisHistorians have long lamented the lack of contemporary documentary sources for the Islamic middle ages and the inhibiting effect this has had on our understanding of this critically important period. Although the field is richly served by surviving evidence, much of it is hard to locate, difficult to access, and philologically intractable. Presenting a mixture of historical studies and new editions of Greek, Arabic and Coptic material from the seventh to the fifteenth century C.E. from Egypt and Palestine, Documents and the History of the Early Islamic World explores the untapped wealth of documentary sources available in collections around the world and shows how this exciting material can be used for historical analysis. Contributors include: Hugh Kennedy, Anne Regourd, Jairus Banaji, Alain Delattre, Shaun O’Sullivan, Anna Selander, Frédéric Bauden, Mostafa El-Abbadi, Rachel Stroumsa, Sebastian Richter, Tascha Vorderstrasse, Matt Malczycki, R.G. Khoury, Nicole Hansen, and Alia Hanafi.

Brill Islamic Sufi Networks in the Western Indian Ocean (c.1880-1940): Ripples of Reform
Book SynopsisIn the period c. 1880-1940, organized Sufism spread rapidly in the western Indian Ocean. New communities turned to Islam, and Muslim communities turned to new texts, practices and religious leaders. On the East African coast, the orders were both a vehicle for conversion to Islam and for reform of Islamic practice. The impact of Sufism on local communities is here traced geographically as a ripple reaching beyond the Swahili cultural zone southwards to Mozambique, Madagascar and Cape Town. Through an investigation of the texts, ritual practices and scholarly networks that went alongside Sufi expansion, this book places religious change in the western Indian Ocean within the wider framework of Islamic reform.Trade Review'In fact, the volume is impressive. It impresses through its sheer quantity of facts, be that information concerning persons, or the detailed description of the written and oral sources (interviews) in the appendix.
