Rebellion and Violence in Islamic Law
El Fadl, Khaled Abou (University of California, Los Angeles)
The book represents the first systematic examination of the idea and treatment of political resistance and rebellion in Islamic law. It examines how pre-modern Muslim jurists restructured competing doctrinal sources to construct a highly technical discourse on rebellion which has come to influence contemporary practice.
