Description

This scholarly volume by Routledge collects essential essays examining medieval Shi'ism across its major branches and movements. The work opens with analyses of legal and political foundations in early Shi'ism, then progresses to doctrinal studies of prominent Zaydi imams including al-Qasim b. Ibrahim al-Rassi and al-Natiq bi-l-Haqq, exploring their theological positions and engagement with Sufism. The collection concludes with focused research on the Isma'iliyya, their social structures, political histories, and religious thought systems. A comprehensive index facilitates navigation across this dense historical material, making it an invaluable reference for students and scholars of Islamic history and religious movements during the medieval period.

Key Features

Wilferd Madelung's collected articles examine legal and political dimensions of early Shi'ism through detailed textual and historical analysis.

Studies of Zaydi imam doctrines, particularly al-Qasim b. Ibrahim al-Rassi and al-Natiq bi-l-Haqq, illuminate theological development within this Shi'i branch.

Essays on Zaydi attitudes towards Sufism clarify interactions between mystical and orthodox Islamic thought in medieval contexts.

Comprehensive treatment of Isma'iliyya social structure, political history, and religious philosophy demonstrates the diversity of medieval Shi'i movements.

Detailed index enables rapid location of specific topics, imams, and theological concepts throughout the collected studies.
