Until now, however, no general study has analyzed the rules governing Sala?t, the historical dimensions of its practice and the rich variety of ways that it has been interpreted within the Islamic tradition. Marion Holmes Katz's richly textured book offers a broad historical survey of the rules, values and interpretations relating to Sala?t. This innovative study on the subject examines the different ways in which prayer has been understood in Islamic law, Sufi mysticism and Islamic philosophy. Katz's book also goes beyond the spiritual realm to analyze the political dimensions of prayer, including scholars' concerns about the righteousness and piety of rulers. The last chapter raises significant issues around gender roles, including the question of women's participating in and leading public worship. This book will resonate with students of Islamic history and comparative religion. 410 0$aThemes in Islamic history ;$v6. 517 3 $aPrayer in Islamic Thought & Practice 606 $aPrayer$xIslam 606 $aSalat 615 0$aPrayer$xIslam. 615 0$aSalat. 676 $a297.3/822 700 $aKatz$b Marion Holmes$f1967-$0698258 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809276203321 996 $aPrayer in Islamic thought and practice$93991379 997 $aUNINA
