This book addresses contemporary debates on civil disobedience in
Islam within the rich Sunni tradition, especially during the height
of the non-violent people revolution in various Arab countries,
popularly known as the Arab Spring. It illustrates the Islamic
theological and jurisprudential arguments presented by those who
either permit or prohibit acts of civil disobedience for the
purpose of changing government, political systems or policy. The
book analyses the nature of the debate and considers how a
theological position on civil disobedience should be formulated in
contemporary time, and makes the case for alternatives to violent
political action such as jihadism, terrorism and armed rebellion.
