Abstract The concept that a certain nine or ten Companions, assured of Paradise in a Prophet ḥadīth, are superior to the rest of the Companions is among the most noteworthy Sunni beliefs. However, though well represented in the works of the ninth-century ḥadīth scholars, this concept has yet to receive adequate discussion in current scholarship. This article investigates its origin by examining various versions of the ‘Ten Promised Paradise’ ḥadīth through isnād-cum-matn analysis. The analysis suggests that this hadith, first emerging before 700, was widely circulated in Iraqi cities (above all, Kufa), and Madina before the mid-eighth century. Through examination of the socio-political milieu in which the earliest known disseminators of the ḥadīth lived, this article argues that the concept came into circulation after the second fitna. This ḥadīth’s ascendancy emerged (in Kufa) from protest against both the Umayyad hostility towards the ʿAlids and their partisans and proto-Shiʿi movements of all kinds (the Ghulāt and Hāshimīs); its propogation in Madina was most likely prompted by rivalry between the caliphate and the Hijazi elite. The article goes on to explore how the ethos of this ḥadīth became an early Sunni doctrine. A close examination of the transmitters following the earliest identifiable disseminators of various versions of the ḥadīth reveals that many transmitters played a prominent role in shaping the communal identity of the ahl al-ḥadīth. They took part in formulating their historical memory, developing ḥadīth criticism and establishing sunna either by articulating the ‘orthodoxy’ or by combating the so-called ‘innovators’.

The Umayyad Mosque of Damascus is an in-depth analysis of one of the main sacred buildings of the Islamic world. It focuses on the Umayyad phase of the building which, given its repercussions on the mosque foundation, is the reason Alain George devotes a good share of the volume to the pre-Islamic history of the site. The book consists of an introduction, six chapters, and an appendix section with some primary sources that contribute to a fuller appreciation of the mosque. The introduction and first chapter discuss the interest sparked by this religious building as reflected in works devoted to it. The fascination with it started very early as a now lost work about the mosque is attested as early as 900. For modern times the overview includes pivotal publications by Creswell1 and Sauvaget,2 The Great Mosque of Damascus by Barry Flood,3 and a few works produced by Syrian scholars such as Ṣalāḥ al-Dīn Munajjid4 and Adnan Bounni.5 The first pages also state the main aims of the book, namely to disclose the process that led to the mosque’s foundation and to undress the structure of later accretions in order to reveal the Umayyad phase of the building. The chapter recounts the main events occurring in and around the mosque over the centuries—especially interesting are the contestation of Damascus between the Fatimids and the Seljuks, and George’s careful reconstruction of the fires and earthquakes that affected the mosque structure. The chapter also introduces some methodological notions that reappear throughout. The first is the notion of palimpsest, meaning a surface layer which retains some traces from previous (older) layers. The second is the extensive use of the rich photographic—and, to a lesser degree, pictorial—evidence of the mosque produced in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
大马士革的倭马亚清真寺是对伊斯兰世界主要神圣建筑之一的深入分析。它着重于建筑的倭马亚时期，考虑到它对清真寺基础的影响，这就是为什么阿兰·乔治在书中花了很大一部分篇幅来讲述该遗址的前伊斯兰历史。这本书包括一个介绍，六章，和一个附录部分的一些主要资料，有助于更全面地了解清真寺。引言和第一章讨论了这座宗教建筑引发的兴趣，反映在致力于它的作品中。人们对这座清真寺的迷恋很早就开始了，因为一份现已失传的关于这座清真寺的作品可以追溯到公元900年。现代概览包括creswell和Sauvaget的重要出版物，Barry Flood的《大马士革大清真寺》，以及叙利亚学者的一些作品，如Ṣalāḥ al- d n Munajjid4和Adnan bounni。书的第一页还说明了本书的主要目的，即揭示导致清真寺建立的过程，并揭示后来的建筑结构，以揭示建筑的倭马亚时期。这一章叙述了几个世纪以来发生在清真寺内部和周围的主要事件——特别有趣的是法蒂玛王朝和塞尔柱王朝对大马士革的争夺，以及乔治对影响清真寺结构的火灾和地震的仔细重建。本章还介绍了一些贯穿始终的方法论概念。第一个是“重写层”的概念，意思是表层保留了以前(更老)层的一些痕迹。第二是大量使用了19世纪和20世纪早期制作的清真寺的丰富的照片——在较小程度上是图片——证据。

As the editor informs us in his Acknowledgements, most of the essays included in this collection stem from a pair of conferences held at the University of Michigan. The goal of these meetings, and thus of the volume, is to foster a dialogue between the study of Islam and the discipline of peace studies. I begin by noting that the title is somewhat misleading. While the collection does include essays that describe what might be called ‘peace movements’, several others are better described as conceptual—that is, the focus is on what the Qurʾān and other authoritative sources have to say about peace, or about the sorts of practices one might understand as important for building peace in particular settings. Thus, A. Rashied Omar’s contribution discusses the relationship between compassion and justice in the Qurʾān, and argues that a number of Muslim groups whose behaviour involves the use of violence are narrowly focused on justice; they seem to ignore the scriptural calls for compassion. Similarly, Juan Cole’s essay emphasizes texts that indicate that those who forego retaliation in favour of forgiveness choose a more excellent way. Other conceptual essays deal with Sufi discourse about the relations between interior peace and social activism, notions of salvation in the work of the early twentieth-century scholar Rashid Rida, and the virtue of ṣabr or patient forbearance in the history of Islam.
