Excerpt from Life in the Moslem East It is with much diffidence that I give the translation of my husband's book to the English-speaking public, and I hope they will deal leniently with my share of the work. The book itself I feel needs no apology. It is not a pretentious history, nor an exhaustive treatise on the countries upon which it touches. It is more a series of studies of certain phases of the life, religion and customs of people among whom my husband has passed the thirty-six years of his service, people for whom he has learned to have a deep sympathy, and often affection, and whom he has striven to present impartially. The fact of his having been for some years Secretary of Legation in Teheran, acting Consul General in Tabriz, five years Consul in Bagdad, five years Consul General in Meshed, two years on a special mission to Tashkent and the Pamirs, and for the last seven years Consul General in Constantinople is a guarantee for his personal acquaintance with the subjects treated. It is the English part of the work that calls forth these lines, for it has been done under various difficuties. Being my first attempt in translating I have not always found it easy to preserve as I have endeavoured to do, something of the style and individuality of the author in the original, and yet render it in good English. A second difficulty is one always met with in such works, and that is, the English spelling of Oriental names. In dealing with this problem I have followed such writers as have seemed to me to give the most correct rendering of Eastern names and words, even though they are not always the most popularly accepted forms.

While much current research on political Islam revolves around militant Islamism, the genesis of this ideology remains little understood. A System of Life is a pioneering examination of the earliest attempt at a systematic outline of Islamist ideology, namely that proposed in the 1930s and early 1940s by the renowned Indo-Muslim intellectual Sayyid Abu'l-A'la Mawdudi. Hartung reconstructs his thought in the light of the competing ideologies at play at the time, especially his claim to recast Islam as an all-comprehensive, self-contained and inner-worldly system of life. His analysis is embedded in an understanding of the history of ideas that assumed increasingly global dimensions through colonial encounters. By showing how Mawdudi -- depicted as a major protagonist of this development - attempted to align elements of Western philosophical thought with selected traditional Islamic ideas and concepts, 'Islamism' is established as an Islamic contribution to a universalistic notion of modernity. Along with offering a detailed portrayal of Mawdudi's system of thought, Hartung also discusses the reception and modification of his ideas in the Middle East, predominantly among intellectuals of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, and among their imitators in postcolonial South Asia.

This dynamic and imaginative volume continues to provide a rich resource for understanding contemporary Muslim culture in the Middle East.

"Islam's revival is reshaping Egypt and other Arab countries in ways beyond violent politics. The yearning for personal solace, a just political system, indigenous lifestyles, and relevant theology all await satisfaction....Just as the Nile runs through Egypt for almost eight hundred miles, giving it life, so also the Straight Way, the way of Allah, runs through it, beckoning its people. The search by Egypt's Muslims for a modern understanding of the Straight Way is the essence of today's passion for Islam." -- from Chapter 1, "First Verses" Written by a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, this authoritative and enthralling primer on the modern face of Islam provides one of the most comprehensive accountings for the roots of religious terrorism and Middle Eastern strife. Over decades, a myriad of social, political, and religious factors has made today's Middle East a combustible region and has contributed to Islam's new power and turmoil. Passion for Islam uses one particular country, Egypt, as a lens through which to show how these forces play out across the area, allowing terrorism to gain a foothold. Through the personal experiences and observations of individual Egyptians encountered during her five years as the Washington Post's Cairo bureau chief, veteran journalist Caryle Murphy explores how Islam's contemporary revival is unfolding on four different levels: "Pious Islam" highlights the groundswell of grassroots piety that has created more Islamic societies; "Political Islam" examines how Islamists, using both violent and peaceful means, are reshaping the region's authoritarian secular political order and redefining Islam's role in the public arena; "Cultural Islam" looks at Egyptian efforts to resist a ubiquitous Western culture by asserting an Islamic identity; "Thinking Islam" reveals how intellectuals are reexamining their theological heritage with the aim of modernizing Islam. Representing years of exhaustive research, Passion for Islam also looks at how the tortured Israeli-Palestinian conflict has contributed to the region's religious ferment and political tumult. By revealing the day-to-day ramifications of all these issues through the eyes of Egyptian intellectuals, holy men, revolutionaries, and ordinary citizens, Passion for Islam brings an unparalleled vitality and depth to Western perceptions of Middle Eastern conflict.
