Abstract

ABSTRACT This article reviews the changing reception of Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya’s (d. 751/1350) Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma between the fourteenth century and modern times. I argue that the book had little influence on legal discourse about Christian and Jewish subjects under Muslim rule when it was written and during the following centuries. However, after the publication of a printed edition in 1961 and particularly from the 1990s, Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma has become an important resource for discussions of non-Muslim minorities in a Muslim state. I attribute the altered reception to a number of factors, including the now changed status of the author and the Ḥanbalite school to which he belonged, and the new relationship between the character of the book and the expectations of its readers. Consideration of the trajectory of Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma from the fourteenth to the twenty-first century is revealing for the insights that it offers into the changing status of Ibn al-Qayyim and the Ḥanbalite legal tradition, and the approach to non-Muslim subjecthood in Islamic legal discourse. It should also encourage caution when using this book as a source for understanding the social or legal history of relations between Muslims and non-Muslims in the fourteenth century.
从默默无闻到权威:从8 / 14世纪到15 / 21世纪伊本·加伊姆·贾兹耶亚的《Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma》的接受变化
摘要:本文回顾了14世纪到现代伊本·加伊姆·贾兹亚(公元751/1350年)Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma的变化。我认为,这本书在成书时以及随后的几个世纪里,对穆斯林统治下的基督教和犹太教主题的法律论述几乎没有影响。然而,在1961年印刷版出版后,特别是从1990年代开始,Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma已成为讨论穆斯林国家非穆斯林少数民族的重要资源。我认为人们对这本书的看法发生了改变,原因有很多,包括作者的地位和他所属的Ḥanbalite学派的改变,以及这本书的特点和读者期望之间的新关系。对Aḥkām ahl al-dhimma从14世纪到21世纪的发展轨迹进行考察,有助于我们了解伊本·盖伊姆和Ḥanbalite法律传统的地位变化,以及伊斯兰法律话语中对待非穆斯林主体性的方式。在使用这本书作为理解14世纪穆斯林和非穆斯林之间关系的社会或法律历史的来源时,也应该鼓励谨慎。
