Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Explores how Muslim law governed the lives of individuals and the conduct of society in medieval Egypt This book shows how political and administrative forces shaped the way justice was applied in medieval Egypt. It introduces the model that evolved during the 7th to the 12th centuries, which involved four judicial institutions: the cadi; the mazalim (court of complaint); the police/shurta (responsible for criminal justice); and the hisba (Islamised market law) administrated by the muhtasib (market supervisor). Literary and non-literary sources are used to highlight how these institutions worked in real-time situations such as the famine of 1024-5, which posed tremendous challenges to the market supervisors in Cairo. The inner workings of the court of complaint during the 11th-12th-century Fatimid state are revealed through an array of documentary sources. And non-Muslim communities, their courts and their sphere of responsibilities are treated as integral to how justice was dispensed in medieval Islam. Documentary sources offer significant insights into these issues and illuminate the scope and limits of non-Muslim self-rule/judicial autonomy. The Administration of Justice in Medieval Egypt shows that the administrative and political history of the judiciary in medieval Egypt implicitly and explicitly shines light on broader questions about the religious and social forces that shaped the lives of medieval people in the Middle East - Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Key Features ? Comprehensively examines the judicial institutions common to all medieval Muslim states ? Provides a broad discussion of the scope of non-Muslim self-rule/judicial autonomy in medieval Islam ? Illuminates the complex relations between the state and its subjects, and the state and non-Muslim communities, through a discussion of the court of complaint ? Highlights the potential and limitations of non-literary sources for medieval social Middle Eastern history through an extensive use of documents and inscriptions Yaacov Lev is Professor Emeritus at Bar Ilan University. He is the author of Charity, Endowments, and Charitable Institutions in Medieval Islam (2005) and co-editor of Charity and Giving in Monotheistic Religions (2009).

'Fatimid history is a chapter of both Mediterranean and Islamic history. In the period covered by the book (10th-12th centuries) profound changes took place in the Eastern Mediterranean affecting the history of the region. Divided into three parts this study deals with the political history of the Fatimid period, the structure of the Fatimid state and the interplay between state and society. The book is a contribution to the study of Islamic military history addressing such topics as: the formation and upkeep of black slave armies, the role of Christian-Armenian troops in twelfth-century Egypt and military and naval aspects of the Fatimid wars with the Crusaders. Other topics examined are the internal policies of the Fatimid state: notably, among them, the religious policies of the Fatimid regime, the involvement of the state in the urban life of the Fatimid capital city, Fustat-Cairo, and Fatimid attitudes toward non-Muslim communities.'.

'This volume focusses on the interplay between war and society in the Eastern Mediterranean, in a period which witnessed the Arab conquests, the Seljuk invasion, the Crusades, and the Mongol incursions. The military aspects of these momentous events have not been fully discussed so far. For the first time this book offers a synthesis of trends in military technology and its effect on society in the period from the Arab conquests to the establishment of an Ottoman hegemony. War and Society in the Eastern Mediterranean provides for medievalists an Oriental context to the military aspects of the Crusades, and for scholars of both Middle Eastern and military history a coherent treatment of an important topic over a long period and covering many different cultures.'.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book deals with various manifestations of charity or giving in the contexts of the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim societies in Late Antiquity and Early Middle Ages. Monotheistic charity and giving display many common features. These underlying similarities reflect a commonly shared view about God and his relations to mankind and what humans owe to God and expect from him. Nevertheless, the fact that the emphasis is placed on similarities does not mean that the uniqueness of the concepts of charity and giving in the three monotheistic religions is denied. The contributors of the book deal with such heterogeneous topics like the language of social justice in early Christian homilies as well as charity and pious endowments in medieval Syria, Egypt and al-Andalus during the 11th-15th centuries. This wide range of approaches distinguish the book from other works on charity and giving in monotheistic religions.
