Une enquête historique aux sources de l'islam. L'islam n'a pas été fabriqué pour des raisons politiques par les habiles califes omeyyades, comme le suggère une certaine islamophobie savante. Mais comment est-il né ? Si la tradition musulmane répond à cette question par un récit circonstancié, pour nombre de chercheurs occidentaux la genèse du dernier monothéisme n'est pas moins obscure que celle du christianisme ou du judaïsme.Relisant l'histoire à travers des documents peu connus, n'hésitant pas à confronter la tradition à la science laïque et aux découvertes récentes, Michel Orcel s'est lancé dans une enquête passionnante sur les cinq grandes énigmes historiques qui entourent la genèse de l'islam (622-692). Son travail jette un éclairage renouvelé sur l'existence et le rôle du Prophète ; sur la constitution du texte coranique ; sur les origines de La Mecque ; sur celles de la Kaaba païenne ; enfin, sur le Dôme du Rocher, mystérieux sanctuaire qui, presque interdit d'accès par le pouvoir hébreu, continue à rayonner sur la ville la plus sainte et la plus explosive du monde.

From the Muslims' to the Crusaders' conquest Jerusalem is among the world's best known cities. Its most outstanding and constant feature is its shared holiness by three major confessions (Muslim, Jewish and Christian). Covering the Marwanid, the Abbasid, and the Faimid phase, this study describes not only the emergence of conceptions with which the three major confessions share this city, but also their interactions as well as the political circumstances and religious axioms which give each conception its specific shape. Looking for these conceptions of the holy area of the city the Haram has been chosen. This area of the former temple was highly significant to all three confessions. The analysis is based on a careful description of the Haram (focusing on topics like names and traditions, architecture, rituals and customs, visions and dreams), and on the establishment of as many parallels as possible. "The result is a volume of astonishing depth and comprehensiveness [à] As a compendium of sources it is unrivalled." Journal of Palestine Studies "The excellent graphics added to each section, culminating in 103 figures, deserve special mention. Also impressive is Kaplony's generous handling of space; it seems that he was aiming for the display of all the texts available to him. [à] taking into account Kaplony's treatment of the subject, one is tempted to compare it with that of the precision and care of Swiss watchmakers. Unless new sources come to light, which is not very likely, this book will be the standard work à for many years to come." Jerusalem Studies in Arabic and Islam "This book is an excellent contribution to the growing literature on Islamic Jerusalem, and it will indubitably be of interest to scholars and students of medieval Islamic history." International Journal of Middle East Studies.

The Dome of the Rock is a shrine located on the Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem. When was it built? What meanings was it meant to convey to viewers at the time of its construction? These are questions that have preoccupied historians of Islamic art and architecture, and numerous interpretations of the Dome of the Rock have been proposed. Marcus Milwright returns to one of the most important pieces of evidence: the mosaic inscriptions running around the two faces of the octagonal arcade. His detailed examination of the physical characteristics, morphology and content of these inscriptions provides new evidence about the chronology the building and the iconography of the Dome of the Rock.

'The Crescent on the Temple' by Pamela Berger elucidates an obscured tradition—how the Dome of the Rock came to stand for the Temple of Solomon in Christian, Muslim, and Jewish art. The crusaders called the Dome of the Rock the “Temple of the Lord,” while Muslim imagery depicted Solomon enthroned within the domed structure. Jews knew that the ancient Temple had been destroyed. Nevertheless, in their imagery, they commonly labeled the Muslim shrine “The Temple.” That domed “Temple” was often represented with a crescent on top. This iconography, long hidden in plain sight, reflects one aspect of an historical affinity between Jews and Muslims.
