Abstract

The Ethics of Karbala: Myths, Modernity, and Virtues of Nobility by Cyrus Ali Zargar is an intellectually rich and deeply moving thinking on the way the memory of the Battle of Karbala is still shaping Islamic ethical consciousness. Published in 2024, the book is one of the exemplars of the new generation of interdisciplinary Islamic studies that integrate traditional Islamic scholasticism, modern philosophy, literary criticism, and theology. Although the battle of Karbala is among the most passionately observed and emotionally charged events in the history of Islam, the book of Zargar does not just do that; he puts the story not merely as a historical tragedy, or a matter of theological argument, but as a source of ethics, as an element of life. It encourages the reader to consider virtue as a tradition, not something abstracts as a goal but practiced in the body to be aroused by recollection, ritual, poetry, and politics.

Abstract

Usaama al-Azami’s Islam and the Arab Revolutions: The Ulama Between Democracy and Autocracy represents a significant contribution to the growing body of literature examining the political role of religious scholars in the modern Muslim world, particularly in the context of the Arab Spring. Published in 2022 by Oxford University Press, the book seeks to disturb centuries-old presumptions over the "apolitical" or "quietist" nature of most of these traditional ulama and instead lays bare how intimately involved they remain within broader systems of politics—either as the carriers of dissent or tools of authoritarian rule. Al-Azami’s work is distinguished not only by its bold argumentation but also by its nuanced methodology, combining textual analysis of sermons and public statements with broader theoretical reflections on Islamic authority, legitimacy, and political theology.
