| description |
Jerusalem fell into the hands of the crusaders at the end of the
eleventh century. The fall of the city actually reflected the internal
problem of Muslim civilisation. It was almost nine decades later that
Jerusalem was successfully recaptured by Ṣalāḥ al-Dīn al-Ayyūbī (d.
1193). Some scholars have a view that Ṣalāḥ al-Dīn’s victory was in
fact an outcome of Sunni revival triggered by the spiritual thought or
taṣawwuf of Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazālī (d. 1111). This view becomes
even more interesting when examined with the theory of civilisation
developed by Malik Bennabi (d. 1973), a twentieth century Algerian
Muslim thinker. Some scholars have discussed Malik Bennabi’s
thought, but it seems few, if any, have used his theory to interpret
certain historical chapter. This article attempts to re-read the history of
the struggle for Jerusalem in the crusading period through Bennabi's
perspective and discusses the importance of al-Ghazālī in this
struggle. |
