{"product_id":"extremist-shiites-matti-moosa-9780815624110","title":"Extremist Shiites","description":"\u003cp\u003eLittle is known in the West about the division of the Islamic world into Shiites and Sunnites and even less about the stratification of these two groups, with most of the attention going to the Sunnites. Moosa's comprehensive study of the origins and cultural aspects of the different extremist, or Ghulat, Shiite sects in the Middle East is a ground-breaking work. These sects whose 'extremism' is essentially religious are generally a peaceful people and, except for the Nusayris of Syria, are not political activists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matti Moosa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815624115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815624110\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Syracuse University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 606\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.22h x 6.26w x 1.33d","brand":"Matti Moosa","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120329289983,"sku":"9780815624110","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8afb5c84-e4bc-4382-a25a-6095b33ee966.jpg?v=1687413746","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/extremist-shiites-matti-moosa-9780815624110","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
