Saddam Hussein and Islam, 1968–2003, offers an intellectual history of the Bathi Party from the 1940s through 2003. Amatzia Baram focuses on the transition from its early insistence on "unity, freedom, and socialism" to its Islamization by the time it was toppled by U.S. forces in 2003, a change largely impelled by the need to rally Iraqis against Iran during their war of 1980–88. Baram reveals signs that Saddam Hussein himself became some sort of born-again Muslim, though these signs are inconclusive.Sources include open source material but also internal secret files and highly classified audiotapes of Saddam Hussein that were made available to researchers at the Conflict Records Research Center at National Defense University and some documents at the Hoover Institution.

Book Description: "The Battle of Karbala took place on Muharram 10, 61 AH (October 9 or 10, 680 CE) in Karbala, in present day Iraq. On one side were supporters and relatives of Muhammad's grandson Husayn ibn Ali; on the other side was a military detachment from the forces of Yazid I, the Umayyad caliph.Husayn ibn Ali's group consisted of notable members of Muhammad's close relatives, around 72 men and women, of which some were either very old or very young. Husayn and some members of his group were accompanied by some of the women and children from their families. On the opposite side, the armed forces of Yazid I were led by Umar ibn Sa'ad and contained at least 40,000 men.The battle field was a desert region located beside one of the branches of the Euphrates River. The battle resulted in the military defeat of Husayn ibn Ali's group, the death of almost all of his men, and the captivity of all women and children.The Battle of Karbala is one of the most significant battles in the history of Muslims.This battle also had significant effects on formation of subsequent revolts against the Umayyad dynasty.The battle of Husayn ibn Ali is commemorated during an annual 10-day period held every Muharram, culminating on its tenth day, Ashura."

vii, 220 pp.; biblio, index. HARD BACK Binding in dust wrappers. Copy in mint condition. New. Dr. Abu-Husayn's book is a solid of research, and an important breakthrough in the study of the rural politics of Syria (Bilad al-Sham) in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. For it is no exaggeration to say that we know more about rural Syria in the sixth and seventh centuries than in the first two centuries of the Ottoman period. Dr. Abu-Husayn, with a combination of keen political insight and careful historical scholarship, bases his work on archival material from Istanbul and Damascus; also on Ottoman and Syrian chronicles, biographical and travel literature, and other Turkish, Arabic and western contemporary sources. The result is a complex work, even subtle at times, because Syria is complex and subtle". #21710

Abu cAbd al-Rahman Muhammad b. al-Husayn al-Sulami (d.412/1021) lived in the 3rd and 4th century AH / 9th and 10th century CE. He was born in the city of Nishapur, one of the most renowned cities in the Islamic world. He was part of a line of earlier Sufi figures who attempted to defend the cardinal tenets of Sufism from accusations of heresy. However al-Sulami's surpassed his predecessors by amassing a corpus of antecedent mystical dicta from the architects of Islamic mysticism and substantiating them with transmission channels (isnad) or grounding them in a core teaching of the Prophet Muhammad. This study demonstrates that al-Sulami was an accomplished mystic. It outlines his life and times and surveys in full all his works as far as they can be identified. Moreover, the important sources that shaped the development and impression of his thinking and modality of transforming the ego-self (nafs) are presented in detail bringing together earlier and current academic scholarship on him.

Voici l''histoire des premiers musulmans et des débuts de l''Islam. Parmi les descendants du Prophète, son gendre ''Ali périt poignardé à Koûfa, puis son petit-fils Husayn mourut en martyr à Karbala. Ainsi s''éteignit la lignée de ses héritiers directs et naquit le chiisme, hostile à tout autre pouvoir que celui des imams. Peut-être ces événements seraient-ils demeurés obscurs si un homme, Mu''âwiya, rival de ''Ali et homme d''État de génie, n''avait fondé une dynastie, conquis un territoire allant de Poitiers aux marches de la Chine et institué l''un des plus vastes empires de l''histoire.   Le mouvement lancé par Mahomet, porté par un imam modèle et par un homme d''État, s''était imposé au monde en moins d''un siècle.

The only child of Muhammad to survive him, Fatima was from early times taken up by Shia Islam, for whose adherents she is the virgin mother, the heavenly intercessor with untold power before God s throne, and the grieving mother of al Husayn, the Shia's most important martyr. During her life she was impoverished and weak, neglected, marginalized, and divested of justice: but her reward in heaven comprises incalculable riches, all those in heaven will bow their heads to her, and her company will be the angels and the friends of God. Here, for the first time, her story is told.
