Summary, etc. |
This book examines how Islam has historically related to politics, showing that Muslim traditions were diverse and often leaned toward political quietism rather than the strict Islamist model. By comparing Islam with Christianity and Judaism, Brown highlights both shared challenges and distinct features in handling religion–state relations. He argues that modern disruptions such as colonialism, nationalism, and Western secular ideas transformed this relationship, giving rise to new Islamist movements led by figures like Hassan al-Banna, Abul Ala Mawdudi, Sayyid Qutb, and Ayatollah Khomeini. Brown concludes that the claim of an inseparable, timeless fusion of Islam and politics is overstated; contemporary Islamism represents a reinterpretation rather than a restoration of the past. |
