Diese Arbeit stellt den Widerstand der Muslime des Nordkaukasus gegen das russische koloniale Vordringen und den Dschihad-Staat von Imam Schamil (reg. 1834 bis 1859) in die Kontinuität einer jahrhundertelangen daghestanischen Tradition von islamisch legitimierter Herrschaft und Rechtsgelehrsamkeit. Eine Untersuchung der Debatten um Scharia und Gewohnheitsrecht seit dem 15. Jahrhundert sowie der sufischen und gelehrten Netzwerke des 19. Jahrhunderts anhand von einheimischen Quellen in arabischer Sprache zeigt, dass nicht der erst relativ spät „importierte Sufismus“ der Naqshbandiyya die treibende Kraft und Legitimation des Dschihad war, sondern der Versuch, auf Basis der Scharia ein islamisches Staatswesen zu gründen.

The Studies in the History and Culture of the Islamic Orient (STIO) is the series of “Supplements” to the journal Der Islam. Both are published by the Section for the History and Culture of the Near East in the Asian-African Institute of the University of Hamburg. The Section was established in 1908, before the foundation of the University of Hamburg. Under its first Director, C.H. Becker, it was the first academic centre in Germany in which teaching and research concentrated on the historical and cultural aspects of the Islamic world, and not just on philological issues. Many of Germany’s leading authorities in Islamic Studies have studied and/or taught here. The “Supplements” have maintained the same high quality and met the same high demands as the journal Der Islam and have published numerous studies on the history and culture of the Islamic world which have represented milestones in their relevant fields. The “New Series” of Supplements appearing since 2004 carries this tradition forward and provides a platform for publishing studies on the history and culture of the Islamic world from the beginnings of Islam up to the present day.

How did Islam survive in the Soviet Union, how did Muslims re-establish Islam in the post-Soviet public sphere? In specific case studies and longitudinal surveys, senior specialists from the area and two German junior scholars analyze the fate of Islamic elites and Sufi brotherhoods, Islamic educational institutions and village courts, as well as the Muslim press, in Tatarstan, Azerbaijan, Daghestan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, from 1917 to the early 2000s.
