Review

“Yitzhak Reiter’s Jerusalem and Its Role in Islamic Solidarity presents an enormously complicated and contentious topic with exemplary fairness and immense learning.  Reiter correctly links the contemporary contest between Jews and Muslims with often diverse and even conflicting claims made over the centuries within Islam as well as Judaism.  He offers us a fascinating and timely account of how the manipulation of ancient myths influences the modern realities of the Arab/Israeli conflict.”--S. Ilan Troen, Stoll Family Chair in Israel Studies, Brandeis University; Co-author, with Jacob Lassner, of Jews and Muslims in the Arab World (2007)

 

"This is a work of great originality.  It is an indispensable study which lays out in great detail the dynamic sacrality of Jerusalem in the Muslim world.  It is also a unique contribution to the literature on the city and its role in the political and religious conflict between Israelis, Palestinians and Muslims."--Richard D. Hecht, Professor of Religious Studies, University of California at Santa Barbara

 

“This pathbreaking study will surely be required reading for all those concerned with Jerusalem and the Arab-Israel conflict. It will be on the desk of scholars seeking to understand the conflict and in the briefcase of diplomats trying to resolve it. An admirable achievement.”--Marshall J. Breger, Professor of Law, Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law
