{"product_id":"violence-in-islamic-thought-from-mustafa-baig-9781474485517","title":"Violence in Islamic Thought from European Imperialism to the Post-Colonial Era","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume shows the diversity of approaches to violence in Islamic thought between the 19th century and the present day, avoiding the limiting characterisations of Islam being inherently 'violent' or 'peaceful'. It shows how ideas of 'justified violence' - grounded in Islamic theological and juristic traditions - reoccur throughout history, up to the contemporary period. Chapters on earlier events provide context for contemporary debates on violence, showing how traditional legal and theological ideas (such as the sovereignty of God's law and peace treaties) are used to both legitimise and de-legitimise violence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mustafa Baig\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474485510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474485517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.88d","brand":"Mustafa Baig","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44131537092863,"sku":"9781474485517","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f485e7cc-fefb-49f2-9d23-1eb704306540.jpg?v=1687474996","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/violence-in-islamic-thought-from-mustafa-baig-9781474485517","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
