Studies in Early Islamic History (with an Introduction by G. R. Hawting)
No Customer Reviews
Collection of all of Martin Hinds' (1941-1988) full-length articles which appeared in journals as well as one of his articles for the Encyclopaedia of Islam, 2nd Edition. Most of the articles have to do with the early period of Islamic history, while two others deal with the early ʿAbbāsid caliphate. The volume is especially important in light of the fact that all of the articles were revised by the editors based on Hinds' own corrected copies: 1. Kūfan Political Alignments and Their Background in the Mid-Seventh Century A.D 2. The Murder of the Caliph 'Uthmān 3. The Ṣiffīn Arbitration Agreement 4 . The Banners and Battle Cries of the Arabs at Ṣiffīn (A.D. 657) 5. Sayf ibn 'Umar's Sources on Arabia 6. A Letter from the Governor of Egypt Concerning Egyptian-Nubian Relations in 141/758 7. Maghāzī and Sīra in Early Islamic Scholarship 8. The First Arab Conquests in Fārs 9. Miḥna "Hinds' articles are essential reading for any specialist in early Islamic history" (Michael Bates)
