DÄr al-islÄm / dÄr al-ḥarb
Territories, People, Identities
Series: - Studies in Islamic Law and Society, Volume: 40
This is the first collection of studies entirely devoted to the terminological pair dÄr al-islÄm / dar al-ḥarb, âthe abode of Islamâ and âthe abode of warâ, apparently widely known as representative of âthe Islamic visionâ of the world, but in fact almost unexplored. A team of specialists in different fields of Islamic studies investigates the issue in its historical and conceptual origins as well as in its reception within the different genres of Muslim written production. In contrast to the fixed and permanent categories they are currently identified with, the multifaceted character of these two notions and their shifting meanings is set out through the analysis of a wide range of contexts and sources, from the middle ages up to modern times.
