Combining research by historians, art historians, archaeologists, and historians of religion, the volume bridges different approaches to the study of the concept of 'holiness' in Muslim societies. It addresses a wide range of geographical regions, from Indonesia and India to Morocco and Senegal, highlighting the strategies implemented in the making and unmaking of holy places in Muslim lands.
