In Jews, Christians, and the Abode of Islam, Jacob Lassner examines
the triangular relationship that during the Middle Ages defined -
and continues to define today - the political and cultural
interaction among the three Abrahamic faiths. Lassner looks closely
at the debates occasioned by modern Western scholarship on Islam to
throw new light on the social and political status of medieval Jews
and Christians in various Islamic lands from the seventh to the
thirteenth centuries. Utilizing a vast array of primary sources,
Lassner shows just what medieval Muslims meant when they spoke of
tolerance, and how that abstract concept played out at different
times and places in the real world of Christian and Jewish
communities under Islamic rule.
