"Till God Inherits the Earth" deals with the origins and evolution
of the Islamic institution of pious endowments in al-Andalus,
analysing its juridical basis and its social-economic role.
Evidence is primarily drawn from Andalusi Maliki jurisprudence and
from narrative and biographical traditional sources as well.
Separate chapters examine private and public donations and special
importance is given to the analysis of the public goals of the
institution, namely, charitative, religious (mosques, rabitas),
educational and for the jihad. The book is completed with several
appendices including complementary information, translations of
Arabic texts and figures. This study provides us with a complete
knowledge of several and important issues such as the relevance of
Islamic jurisprudence as an historical source, the structure of
economic property, the idea of charity, the Islamic concept of
general or common interest and the social and juridical role of men
of religion.
