Where it came from
Published by Cambridge University Press in 2003, this scholarly work by Professor Yohanan Friedmann examines the historical tension between the principles of tolerance and the practice of coercion within Islamic legal and political traditions. The text was developed from years of rigorous academic research into the foundational texts and historical precedents that have shaped, and continue to influence, the relationship between Muslim authorities and religious minorities.
The book is regarded as a significant contribution to the field of Islamic studies, noted for its objective analysis of complex theological and historical arguments. Friedmann, an expert in Islamic history at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, sought to provide a nuanced understanding of how historical interpretations of Quranic verses and Hadith have been applied in varying socio-political contexts over the centuries, rather than offering a monolithic view of the religion.
