The focus of this book is the 12th-century handbook on jihad composed by Ibn 'Asakir of Damascus. It was written at the behest of Nur al-Din Zangi, who was originally the ruler of Aleppo, but who during 1150s expanded the territory he controlled to cover all of Syria and then Egypt and encroached regularly on the Crusader lands of the Levant. The authors open with surveys of how jihad was conceived, in early Islamic and during the Crusader period. There follow studies of the life and career of Ibn 'Asakir, the genre in which he wrote, and the particular characteristics and importance of his text. The second part of the book contains a critical Arabic edition of Ibn 'Asakir's Forty Hadiths on the Obligation to Wage Jihad, along with a first translation of the text into English.
