Arabs and Others In Early Islam Hardback
by Suliman Bashear
Part of the SLAEI - Studies in Late Antiquity and Early Islam series
Hardback
Description
This work investigates available early Arabic hadith and exegetical literature in order to determine the great complexity of how Arabs, Muslims and Arab-Muslims viewed themselves and members of other communities.
In particular, it focuses on the relation between definitions of Arabness and otherness with Islamic ascriptions of believers and nonbelievers and endeavors to trace the changing of these views over time.
Moreover, this is an in-depth analysis of a series of hadiths and isnads that discusses when, where, why, and by whom traditions were circulated during the 8th and 9th centuries.
