The Ibadhi Imamate of Muhammad bin 'Abdallah al-Khalili (1920-54): The Last Chapter of a Lost and Forgotten Legacy
2008
Overview
Oman provided ideal conditions, both internally and externally, for the emergence of an Ibadhi Imamate, which was therefore a political legacy rooted in Omani existence for over 1,000 years, from the time that Oman accepted the yoke of Ibadhi Islam. There was also an essentially dissimilar political legacy which contributed to the development of Oman. It was that of the coastal state, the Muscat Sultanate, epitomized in the tales of Sinbad the Sailor and the navigation logs left by such famed mariners as Ahmad ibn Majid. This legacy identifies Oman as a maritime trading state whose merchants as early as the eighth century traveled from one end of the monsoon region to the other, from China to the shores of East Africa. Here, Rabi deals with the former legacy, that of the Imamate of Oman that came to an end in 1954 and was swept into the ashbin of history, and examines the historical, intellectual and social perspectives and the nature of the Ibadhi Imamate.
