Description
Hisba, Arts and Craft in Islam. By AHMAD GHABIN. Arabisch-Islamische Welt in Tradition und Moderne, vol. 7. Wiesbaden: HARRASSOWITZ, 2009. Pp. 287. [euro] 48. The stated goal of this book is "to reveal the real nature of the institution of hisba and to look for any relationship between its activity and the development of arts and crafts in Islam. Historically and geographically our research will not be confined to any specific period or place in Medieval Islam" (p. 12). The introduction suggests that the book will summarize the origins and development of the concept of hisba (a topic that was covered in great depth in 2000 by Michael Cook in Commanding Right and Forbidding Wrong in Islamic Thought); discuss the specific institution of the muhtasib, as the official appointed to carry out the task of hisba; and assess how the muhtasib regulated arts and crafts. All of this will be done over the wide time and space of medieval Islamic history.
