Although much has been written about the status of non-Muslims in the Islamic empire, no previous works have examined how the rules applying to minorities were formulated. Milka Levy-Rubin's remarkable book traces the emergence of these regulations from the first surrender agreements in the immediate aftermath of conquest to the formation of the canonic document called the Pact of 'Umar, which was formalized under the early 'Abbasids, in the first half of the ninth century. The study reveals that the conquered peoples themselves played a major role in the creation of these policies and that they were based on long-standing traditions, customs and institutions from earlier pre-Islamic cultures that originated in the worlds of both the conquerors and the conquered. In its connections to Roman, Byzantine and Sasanian traditions, the book will appeal to historians of Europe as well as Arabia and Persia. 410 0$aCambridge studies in Islamic civilization. 606 $aDhimmis (Islamic law)$zIslamic Empire$xHistory 606 $aReligious minorities$xLegal status, laws, etc$zIslamic Empire$xHistory 606 $aMinorities (Islamic law) 606 $aIslam and state$zIslamic Empire$xHistory 606 $aIslam and politics$zIslamic Empire$xHistory 606 $aReligious tolerance$zIslamic Empire$xHistory 607 $aIslamic Empire$xEthnic relations 607 $aIslamic Empire$xPolitics and government 615 0$aDhimmis (Islamic law)$xHistory. 615 0$aReligious minorities$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xHistory. 615 0$aMinorities (Islamic law) 615 0$aIslam and state$xHistory. 615 0$aIslam and politics$xHistory. 615 0$aReligious tolerance$xHistory. 676 $a305.60956/09021 700 $aLevy-Rubin$b Milka$f1955-$0853435 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461488903321 996 $aNon-Muslims in the early Islamic Empire$91905618 997 $aUNINA
