Islam and the conception of Islamic state: the Past and the analytica

This book is a powerful reading of Islamic history, and a provocative assessment of its consequences for the present. The book specifically treats, among others, the Arabs before Islam and early Islam. It interrogates the claims of those Islamists who contended that Islam carries with it a theory of political policies and the state which should be applied unquestioningly. In addition, special attention was given to the Islamic state of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), a newly caliphate state by the terrorist group.
