Arengas de ŷihād en época almohade

Abstract

The aim of this paper is the study of the Almohad harangues delivered in a context of Holy War. These speeches will be analyzed not only from the point of view of their military functionality, but also from the perspectives of the ritualization of jihād launched by the unitary movement, the legitimation of the Mu’minid power through the leading of Holy War, and the transmission of the main ideas of the discourse of jihād that the Berber caliphate carried out.
