Dancing in Chains; Bibliography; Index 330 $aRobust sexuality, profound spirituality and elaborate legalism are, at first glance, strange bedfellows. The conventional Western wisdom has long conceived of these several modes as comprising an antagonistic trichotomy, in which each component is opposed to the others. Classical Islam, on the other hand, envisioned a unique system of cooperation between the sensual, the ethereal and the forensic. This study employs the vast and hitherto neglected literature of Islamic purity law as a looking glass through which to examine early Muslim attitudes to the romantic and erotic. Probing Qur'a?n, H?adi?th, Tafsi?r and Fiqh, it opens a window on a world of unexpectedly explicit and unrestrainedly joyful sexual expression -- a world located squarely within the confines of God's sacred law and its elucidation. 410 0$aStudies in Islamic Law and Society ;$v23. 606 $aIslam$xCustoms and practices 606 $aIslam$xDoctrines 606 $aIslam$xRituals 606 $aIslamic law 606 $aPurity, Ritual$xIslam 606 $aSex$xReligious aspects$xIslam 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIslam$xCustoms and practices. 615 0$aIslam$xDoctrines. 615 0$aIslam$xRituals. 615 0$aIslamic law. 615 0$aPurity, Ritual$xIslam. 615 0$aSex$xReligious aspects$xIslam. 676 $a297.5/66 700 $aMaghen$b Ze'ev$0692406 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451028203321 996 $aVirtues of the Flesh$91245948 997 $aUNINA
