Eunuchs, Caliphs and Sultans. A Study of Power Relationships
The book covers a period from the beginning of Islam, up to the beginning of the sixteenth century, and deals mainly with the eunuchs in the major centres of Islam in the East (Umayyads, 'Abbasids, Seljuks, Zengids, Ayyubids and Mamluks and to some extent, the Fatimids of Egypt). It is not a history of the eunuchs in that wide area but rather is mainly concerned with the power accumulated by the eunuchs, military, socially and even economically (…
Eunuchs, Caliphs and Sultans
The Mamlūks of the Seljuks
The study of the Mamlūks under the Seljuks is of pivotal significance, because those Mamlūks formed the essential connecting link between their predecessors in the ‘Abbāsid Caliphate and their successors in the Sultanates of the Zangids, the Ayyūbids and the Mamlūks of Egypt and Syria on the one hand, and in the Sultanate of the Ottomans on the other. They were also part of an exceptionally important stage in the ethnic transformation which those…
The End of the Mamluk Sultanate
On the Term Khādim in the Sense of «Eunuch» in the Early Muslim Sources
IN a very recent article A. Cheikh Moussa studied meticulously the main passages of al-Jahiz dealing with the eunuchs in his Kitab al-Hayawan and Kitdb Mufakharat al-Jawiari wal-Ghilmnn' (later Hajawan and Jawdri). This is a welcome and timely contribution. In spite of the obvious centrality of the eunuch institution in Muslim history and civilization the subject was very much neglected (with the possible partial exception of its study regarding …
Regarding Population Estimates in the Countries of Medieval Islam
Islamic Studies are still at a very early stage of their development. The research in many of their major fields is in its infancy'). In view of the vastness of the Islamic territories; the great differences between those territories; the immense source material which came down to us; and the comparatively small number of scholars involved in their research-solid progress can be made, on the whole, if it is cautious and slow. As is the case in ev…

Studies in Al-Jabartī I
The Historian Al-Jabartī and his Background
In glaring contrast to the period of the Mamluk sultanate (1250-1517), which abounds in rich, most detailed and accurate source material, hardly surpassed either in quality or quantity by the source material pertaining to any other region of Islam, the period of Ottoman rule in Egypt (1517-1811, approximately) is conspicuous for the dearth of its historical sources written by contemporary inhabitants of the country. This state of affairs, gloomy …

Studies on the Structure of the Mamluk Army-III
Office-holders in the Mamluk kingdom were, as is well known, divided into three categories: those who belonged to the Mamluk caste and were called ' men of the sword ' (arbāb as-suyūf), those who were civilians and were known as ' holders of administrative offices ' or as ' men of the pen ' (arbāb al-waẓā' if ad-dīwānīya, or arbāb or ḥamalat al-aqlām), and those who belonged to the clerical class and were called ' holders of religious offices ' o…
Studies on the Structure of the Mamluk Army-II
The term ḥalqa, as a name of a military unit, seems to be mentioned for the first time in 1174, when Tūrānshāh set out, under Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn's orders, on his expedition to the Yemen. This unit is also mentioned a few times during the siege of Acre in 587/1191. The sources do not indicate the date of its founding, and no authoritative explanation of the meaning of its name is available. Two opinions as to the latter may be submitted with all due res…

Studies on the Structure of the Mamluk Army-I
Contemporary sources furnish fairly ample information on the structure of the Mamluk army and the units from which it was composed; but, though some of their definitions and descriptions come near to the truth, the present writer has found none of them to be completely accurate. He is of the opinion that the treatment of this question by modern Orientalists is also in need of some emendation, and he here submits the composition of the Mamluk army…
