Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Centering Pakistanthe 'Land of the Pure'in a story of transnational Islam stretching from South Asia to the Middle East, Fuchs offers the first in-depth ethnographic history of Shi'is and their religious competitors in the region. The notion of Pakistan as the pinnacle of modern global Muslim aspiration forms a crucial component of this story. It has empowered Shi'is, who form about twenty percent of Pakistan's population, to advance alternative conceptions of their religious hierarchy while claiming the support of towering grand ayatollahs in Iran and Iraq. Fuchs shows how popular Pakistani preachers and scholars have boldly tapped into the esoteric potential of Shi'ism, occupying a creative and at times disruptive role as brokers, translators, and self-confident pioneers of contemporary Islamic thought. They have indigenized the Iranian Revolution and formulated their own ideas for fulfilling the original promise of Pakistan. Challenging typical views of Pakistan as a mere Shi'i backwater, Fuchs argues that its uniquely South Asian Islam may open up space for new intellectual contributions to global Islam. Yet, religious ideology has also turned Pakistan into a deadly battlefield: sectarian groups since the 1980s have been bent on excluding Shi'is as harmful to their own vision of an exemplary Islamic state, which has resulted in terrible violence.

Paperback. Condition: New. Centering Pakistan in a story of transnational Islam stretching from South Asia to the Middle East, Simon Wolfgang Fuchs offers the first in-depth ethnographic history of the intellectual production of Shi'is and their religious competitors in this ""Land of the Pure."" The notion of Pakistan as the pinnacle of modern global Muslim aspiration forms a crucial component of this story. It has empowered Shi'is, who form about 20 percent of the country's population, to advance alternative conceptions of their religious hierarchy while claiming the support of towering grand ayatollahs in Iran and Iraq.

They have indigenized the Iranian Revolution and formulated their own ideas for fulfilling the original promise of Pakistan. Challenging typical views of Pakistan as a mere Shi'i backwater, Fuchs argues that its complex religious landscape represents how a local, South Asian Islam may open up space for new intellectual contributions to global Islam.

Proper Signposts for the Camp. The Reception of Classical Authorities in the Gihadi Manual al-Umda fi I'dad al-Udda. Arbeitsmaterialien zum Orient, Band 24.
Seller: Borkert, Schwarz und Zerfaß GbR, Berlin, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Originalbroschur. Condition: Wie neu. 155 S. Tadellos, nahezu ohne Gebrauchsspuren. - "Proper Signposts for the Camp" widmet sich der Frage, in welcher Weise jihadistische Autoren auf die sunnitische Tradition zurückgreifen, um ihrem Projekt Autorität zu verschaffen. Selbst innerhalb der Islamwissenschaft hat diese Problematik bisher zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit gefunden. Radikalen Autoren wird per se eine Verzerrung der Religion vorgeworfen, die Rezeptionsgeschichte wird verengt auf eine kanonische Abfolge fanatischer Außenseiter. Das vorliegende Buch stellt diese gängige Vorstellung in Frage durch die intensive Auseinandersetzung mit einem jihadistischen Schlüsseltext: "al-Umda fi Idad al-Udda" entstand im Kontext des afghanischen Jihad im Jahre 1988, verfasst von dem einflussreichen ägyptischen Ideologen Dr. Fadl. Sämtliche religiöse Quellen und Autoritäten, auf die sich Dr. Fadl stützt, werden mit einem besonderen Augenmerk auf Diskussionen um politische Autorität vorgestellt und analysiert. Dr. Fadl, so die Kernthese, gelingt es, sein anvisiertes politisches Gemeinwesen in den Trainingslagern überzeugend in der sunnitischen Tradition zu verankern. Bezeichnenderweise wird Ibn Taymiya bei ihm nicht zum Urvater jihadistischer Gewalt, sondern steht für politischen Quietismus, der so kennzeichnend für den Damaszener Gelehrten ist. (Verlagstext).
