Waqfs and urban structures

En savoir plus sur le livre

This study presents a new approach to the phenomenon of Muslim pious foundations, or waqfs , focussing on the evolution of the institution in the urban context and the elaboration of the legal framework to accommodate the urban system of control. Taking Damascus as an example, it is shown how the waqf-institution determined the shape and character of Muslim cities.
