Description
Summary:Exegesis of Bandali al-Gauzi's "The history of intellectual movements in Islam" (Beirut, 1928). In the author's view Gauzi's work is historically the first application of Marxism to the genesis of Islam: by focussing on the motivating factors in the Prophet's life and subsequent revolutionary movements in Islam, Gauzi hoped to rekindle dedication in Muslim society to what he considered its ultimate ideal: social justice based on the fundamental equality of all men before God.
