Publisher's Synopsis
""A Study in Tolerance: As Practiced by Muhammad and His Immediate Successors"" by Adolph L. Wismar is a scholarly work that explores the concept of tolerance in Islam during the time of the Prophet Muhammad and his immediate successors. The book delves into the historical context of early Islamic society and the various challenges faced by the Muslim community, including conflicts with other religious groups and tribal factions. Wismar examines the teachings of the Quran and Hadith, as well as the actions and sayings of Muhammad and his companions, to demonstrate the importance of tolerance and peaceful coexistence in Islam. The author also discusses the concept of jihad and its various interpretations, as well as the role of Islamic law in promoting tolerance and justice. Through his analysis, Wismar argues that tolerance was a fundamental value in early Islam and that it is still relevant and necessary in today's world. The book is aimed at scholars and students of Islamic studies, as well as anyone interested in understanding the role of tolerance in Islam.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
