Mawlana Mawdudi and
Political Islam
uential and important Islamic
thinkers of the modern world, whose brand of political Islam has won wide-
spread acceptance in South and South-East Asia as well as the Middle East.
He was not only an Islamic scholar, but also a journalist and political activist
who founded the Jamaat-i-Islami, which has subsequently in
uenced the
development of many Islamic movements and parties throughout the Muslim
world.
This book is the
rst to engage critically and assess his career and legacy
within the wider context of political Islam. It includes coverage of his early
life and in
uence in the con-
temporary Islamic world. The issues that were a concern for Mawdudi and
continue to have resonance for our world today include such questions as the
role of women in Islam; the possibilities for democracy in an Islamic state;
the importance of jihad; and the moral and religious responsibility of the
individual. While focus is on Mawdudi
s life and writings, this is placed within
the wider context of topical, often contentious, Islamic thought.
Providing an up-to-date and detailed critical study of Mawlana Mawdudi
and many issues surrounding political Islam both in Mawdudi
s time and
today, this book will be an important text for scholars of Islamic studies,
political science and philosophy.
