Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the rich theological and political history of the Zaidi sect, a branch of Shia Islam. It provides a detailed exploration of the Zaidi theory of the Imamate, the divine institution of religious and political leadership. The author traces the evolution of Zaidi thought from its inception in the 8th century, examining the sect's distinctive doctrines on dynastic legitimacy, the qualifications of the Imam, and the conditions for revolt against oppressive rulers. The book draws on a wealth of historical and theological sources, including the works of Zaidi scholars, imams, and polemicists, as well as those of their Sunni and Shia opponents. It presents a nuanced and balanced analysis of the Zaidi tradition, highlighting both its unique contributions and its points of convergence with other Islamic schools of thought. Through the study of the Zaidi theory of the Imamate, this book offers a window into the complex interplay between religion and politics in early Islamic history. It sheds light on the diversity of intellectual and political currents within Shia Islam and provides a deeper understanding of the religious and ideological conflicts that have shaped the broader development of Islam.
