This book traces the journey of new Muslims as they joined the
early Islamic community and articulated their identities within it.
It focuses on Muslims of slave origins, who belonged to the society
in which they lived but whose slave background rendered them
somehow alien. How did these Muslims at the crossroads of insider
and outsider find their place in early Islamic society? How did
Islamic society itself change to accommodate these new members? By
analysing how these liminal Muslims resolved the tension between
belonging and otherness, Conquered Populations in Early Islam
reveals the shifting boundaries of the early Islamic community and
celebrates the dynamism of Islamic history.
