Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Shalom/Salaam is a groundbreaking study introducing to the popular reader, the story of respectful interfaith relations between Sufis and Jewish spiritual thinkers for nearly one thousand years. From the inception of Islam, to the Golden Age (8th12th centuries) JewishSufis of Arabia, North Africa and Spain, through the Kabbalists in Spain and the Holy Land, and then into 18thcentury European Hasidism, Islamic and Jewish ideas commingled to inspire both paths, as well as strongly influencing the Jewish mystical system.Many medieval Jews interacted with and were influenced by the Sufi way. Moses Maimonides, considered the preeminent Jewish medieval thinker, Solomon ibn Gabirol, whose 'piyyut' are still sung during the Sabbath liturgy, Judah Halevi, whose work, according to the chief Rabbi of Palestine in the early 20th century, contains that which is most precious about the Jewish soul and hundreds of other seminal Jewish thinkers read Sufi treatises in Arabic, wrote Islamicinspired mystical odes and sometimes even based their interpretations of Jewish tradition on Sufism.Some Jewish thinkers went so far as to quote Islamic thinkers directly. Fragments of Sufi tracts are woven through medieval Jewish writings, from those of Moses Maimonides' son Abraham, to Judah Halevi's 'Sefer haKuzari.' David Maimonides (15th century) went so far as to mention Muslims by name, with paeans to their virtuosity and wisdom.This study demonstrates the deep and abiding respect that Jewish religious figures often had for Muslim thinkers. It also explores how Islamic influence reverberates within Judaism to this day. This book not only provides readers with a new perspective on Jewish spirituality, but also adds a vital study to the extant literature on MuslimJewish relations. It could change how contemporary JewishMuslim relations are considered, solidifying an appreciation for how deeply are these two religious paths interconnected.More than just a historical work, this book provides a fresh perspective on the social, religious and political issues that have complicated JewishMuslim relations since the founding of Israel. Popularizing this littleknown tale of mutual respect and spiritual love can activate a narrative of peace so unusual in these difficult times in the Middle East between these children of Abraham.
