Jerusalem in Islamic Consciousness : a Textual Survey of Muslim Claims and Rights to the Sacred City

Hatem Bazian

4.9/5 (23918 ratings)

Description:The existing omission of Palestine's Islamic history has had a far deeper consequence, whether intended or not, of rejecting indigenous Muslim claims and rights to the land. History is written within the scope of time and space; thus the Islamic period's time is omitted which also leads to a discontinuity of a people's right or claim to their own space. The Palestinians, who are the inhabitants of this land, are either completely absent from the history or at most a side show to the main act of Jewish history in Palestine, both ancient and present.What Dr Hatem proposes to undertake is an exploration of the recorded Islamic history of al-Quds and Palestine and to establish the high reverence Muslims hold for this area. This is not an extensive chronological treatment of the subject, but one that provide focus on the religious foundations used to advance Muslim claims first to al-Quds, and by extension to the whole of Palestine.The research will seek to answer the question often asked: what are the basis of Muslim claims to Palestine? What do Muslim sources say about al-Quds and the land? Why is al-Quds significant to the followers of Islam? Why should this Islamic understanding convey a legitimate territorial claim by the present day Palestinians? Finally, how has this Islamic consciousness been expressed in various periods? My hope is to work on a series of books dealing with this subject and this volume only serves as an initial foray into the subject to be followed by further research in the near future.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
