God's Rule
Author: Patricia Crone
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 9780231132916
Category : Islam and politics
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
Patricia Crone's God's Rule is a fundamental reconstruction and analysis of Islamic political thought focusing on its intellectual development during the six centuries from the rise of Islam to the Mongol invasions. Based on a wide variety of primary sources--including some not previously considered from the point of view of political thought--this is the first book to examine the medieval Muslim answers to questions crucial to any Western understanding of Middle Eastern politics today, such as why states are necessary, what functions they are meant to fulfill, and whether or why they must be based on religious law. The character of Muslim political thought differs fundamentally from its counterpart in the West. The Christian West started with the conviction that truth (both cognitive and moral) and political power belonged to separate spheres. Ultimately, both power and truth originated with God, but they had distinct historical trajectories and regulated different aspects of life. The Muslims started with the opposite conviction: truth and power appeared at the same time in history and regulated the same aspects of life. In medieval Europe, the disagreement over the relationship between religious authority and political power took the form of a protracted controversy regarding the roles of church and state. In the medieval Middle East, religious authority and political power were embedded in a single, divinely sanctioned Islamic community--a congregation and state made one. The disagreement, therefore, took the form of a protracted controversy over the nature and function of the leadership of Islam itself. Crone makes Islamic political thought accessible by relating it to the contexts in which it was formulated, analyzing it in terms familiar to today's reader, and, where possible, comparing it with medieval European and modern political thought. By examining the ideological point of departure for medieval Islamic political thought, Crone provides an invaluable foundation for a better understanding of contemporary Middle Eastern politics and current world events.

God's Revenge
Author: Evelyn Mundell
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1453544976
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 571
Book Description
An ancient Koine Greek manuscript is discovered that sheds fresh light on a host of long-held beliefs. History professor, Etienne Naude, discovers that the past, present and future are inextricably linked and intertwined. Things are not always as they appear to be a first glance. This rollercoaster ride accelerates at an alarming pace. Our unlikely team of unlikely heroes uncovers ancient mysteries that are directing present realities. As they peel back the layers that hide the malevolent beast that has systematically burrowed into the fabric of all society from ancient times, they uncover convoluted “wheels within wheels.” At last the hidden enemy is revealed in its true reality. They discover that God’s revenge is indeed an awesome thing. We read the eye-witness testimony of a survivor – one who has witnessed this reality from the inside. He describes a sickening holocaust of epic proportions that history has conveniently swallowed up and glossed over. Man does not learn from the lessons of the past, and is viciously inhumane towards his fellow man. Our team members also see that God’s love and grace to those who obey Him, are infinite. The helter-skelter ride builds up inexorable velocity until it comes to a crashing climax, which has included the international security forces, as well as the CIA and the KGB. Life can never be the same again!
