God's Caliph

- Religious Authority in the First Centuries of Islam

About God's Caliph

This study examines how religious authority was distributed in early Islam. It argues the case that, as in Shi'ism, it was concentrated in the head of state, rather than dispersed among learned laymen as in Sunnism.
