دانلود کتاب Shiism in the Maghrib and al-Andalus, Volume One: History

Shiism in the Maghrib and al-Andalus provides a panoramic view of the Shiite presence in North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula. This first volume surveys the seminal role played by the Shiite Imams, their companions, and their followers in North Africa and Islamic Spain. It highlights the fact that several of the Shiite Imams had Berber wives and mothers, and studies the settlement of sharifian families in the Western part of the Muslim world. It examines the role of the Shiite Imams in the Sufi orders of the region, and scrutinizes the Berber and Arab Shiites in the Maghrib and al-Andalus, the Shiite sects that surfaced there, and Shiite dynasties that they established. The work investigates the Shiite revolts that took place in both the Maghrib and al-Andalus, and provides profiles of the Shiite scholars who hailed from there. The Maliki Sunni inquisition and the mystery of the Shiite Moriscos are also addressed, as are the vestiges of Shiism and the current Shiite revival in the region. By re-examining, re-assessing, and rewriting the religious and political history of the region, Shiism in the Maghrib and al-Andalus makes a revolutionary contribution to scholarship in the field.
