From Anwar al-Sadat's dramatic gambit in 1977 to the surprising
declaration of the Abraham Accords in 2020, making peace with
Israel was always a tough sell for Arab regimes. Through an
analysis of hundreds of fatwas, sermons, essays, books, interviews,
poems, postage stamps and other media, Peace in the Name of Allah
examines how Egyptian, Jordanian, and Emirati political and
religious authorities introduced Islamic justifications for peace
with Israel, and how those opposed countered them. The discussion
demonstrates the flexible and ambiguous nature of revelation-based
political discourses; Islam is neither 'for' nor 'against' peace
with Israel - people are, as different Muslim political actors take
competing or even contradictory positions.
