"In the wake of the 9/11 attacks in the United States by a group of Sunni militants seeking to hit the leading Western power in its territory, there has been much discussion in the media regarding the concept of jihad... Dr. Yasir Ibrahim's lucid translation of the Book of Jihad by al-Tabari... accompanied by an illuminating introduction, greatly advances our understanding of jihad. Tabari's book provides a rare resource for examining the opinion of classical jurists on the various categories of jihad, the circumstances under which Muslim rulers could wage war against non-believers, and the conditions for signing truce and peace agreements between Muslim and non-Muslim states." - Professor Yitzhak Nakash Brandeis University "Dr. Yasir Ibrahim's translation of al-Tabari's work on jihad is eminently worthy of publication. Tabari (d. 923 C.E.) is well-known among Western scholars for his multi-volume history, as well as for his commentary on the Qur'an, and both of these works are available in English translation... I cannot say how much I appreciate Dr. Ibrahim's labor in producing this work, and I believe others will similarly appreciate having Tabari's book on jihad available in English." - Dr. John Kelsay Distinguished Research Professor and Rebenstein Professor of Religion Florida State University"
Reseña del editor
"The Book of Jihad" (Kitab al-Jihad) is part of the fragmentary "Book of the Disagreement among Muslim Jurists" (Kitab Ikhtilaf al Fuqaha') by Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari (ca. 839 - ca. 923 C.E.), the famous Muslim historian and Qur'anic commentator. It consists of several sections that deal with different issues related to jihad in classical Islam such as the rules of declaring and conducting war against enemy states and the rules of making peace with the enemy. The present annotated translation of the "Book of Jihad" is based on the original manuscript located in Istanbul, Turkey. This work will appeal to scholars of Islamic Studies as well as Religion, History and Political Science.
