Product Description

Challenges a foundational narrative of medieval Jewish history—that the rise of Islam led the Jews of Babylonia (the largest Jewish community prior to the rise of Islam) to move from agriculture into urban crafts and long-distance trade—presenting an alternative revealing the complexity of interfaith relations in early Islam.
