| Summary | "The Holy War 'Made in Germany'" by Dr. C. Snouck Hurgronje is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the implications of declaring a "Holy War" within the context of modern political structures in the Islamic world, particularly focusing on the Ottoman Empire during World War I. It scrutinizes the evolution of Islamic thought regarding jihad and the political maneuverings of the Turkish government in response to European colonial ambitions. In the book, Hurgronje examines the historical roots and legal frameworks surrounding jihad, contrasting them with contemporary political realities. He discusses the complexities of Islamic governance and the diminishing authority of the Caliphate, while also addressing the Turkish involvement in World War I alongside Germany. Through this analysis, the author provides insights into the socio-political dynamics within the Muslim community and the impact of Western powers on Islamic states. The work captures the tension between religious ideologies and modern statehood, highlighting the challenges faced by Islamic societies grappling with their identity amid external pressures.
