Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Black Stone and the Hidden Imam: The Rise and Fall of the Qarmatian StateBetween 899 and 1077 CE, a radical Islamic movement established an independent state in eastern Arabia that promised equality and justice for believers while building its economy on the forced labor of thirty thousa…nd enslaved Ethiopians. The Qarmatian Commonwealth created communal storehouses, collective governance, and interest-free loans that provided genuine security to its members, yet its warriors massacred thirty thousand pilgrims in Mecca and stole the sacred Black Stone from the Kaaba. This comprehensive history examines how a movement could simultaneously operate schools and communal kitchens while committing acts of spectacular violence that shocked the medieval Islamic world.Drawing on hostile chronicles, fragmentary sources, and careful historical reconstruction, this book recovers the voices of ordinary believers, enslaved workers, and women largely erased from the historical record. It explores the psychology of apocalyptic certainty, the economics of communalism built on exploitation, and the patterns of iconoclastic violence that recur across religious traditions. By comparing the Qarmatian experiment to other revolutionary movements from the Zanj Rebellion to the Protestant Reformation, it reveals profound truths about the relationship between egalitarian aspirations and brutal reality, between ideology and violence, and between revolutionary fervor and sustainable governance. This is uncomfortable history that resists simple moral judgments but offers crucial lessons about human capacity for both innovation and atrocity. This item is printed on demand.
