The Holy War Made In Germany is a book written by Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje, originally published in 1915. The book discusses the role of Germany in inciting and promoting the idea of a holy war or jihad against the Allies during World War I. Hurgronje, a Dutch scholar of Islam and Arabic, argues that Germany’s efforts to manipulate and exploit the religious sentiments of Muslims in the Middle East and South Asia were part of a larger strategy to gain political and economic influence in these regions.The book provides a detailed analysis of the propaganda campaigns and diplomatic initiatives undertaken by Germany to win over Muslim leaders and communities. Hurgronje also examines the responses of the British and French governments to these efforts, as well as the reactions of Muslim intellectuals and activists who were torn between their loyalty to their colonial rulers and their religious obligations.The Holy War Made In Germany is a seminal work in the field of Islamic studies and international relations, shedding light on the complex interplay between religion, politics, and imperialism in the early 20th century. The book remains relevant today as a cautionary tale about the dangers of using religion as a tool of political manipulation and as a reminder of the enduring legacy of colonialism in the Muslim world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
