Explores Muslim attitudes towards violence from the nineteenth century to the present dayMuslim attitudes toward violence have been reshaped in light of the colonial context since the 18th and 19th centuries, and in response to regional and world-changing events of the contemporary period. This volume shows the diversity of approaches to violence in Islamic thought, 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 - re-occur 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.This is the final volume in the Violence in Islamic Thought trilogy. Taken together the 3 books cover key aspects of violence in Islamic thought from the earliest time to the present day, mapping a trajectory of thinking about violence over fourteen centuries of Islamic history.Key Features.
