"In Sainthood and Authority in Early Islam Aiyub Palmer recasts wilāya in terms of
Islamic authority and traces its development in both political and religious spheres
up through the 3rd and 4th Islamic centuries. This book pivots around the ideas of
al-Ḥakīm al-Tirmidhī, the first Muslim theologian and mystic to write on the topic
of wilāya. By looking at its structural roots in Arab and Islamic social organization,
Aiyub Palmer has reframed the discussion about sainthood in early Islam to show how
it relates more broadly to other forms of authority in Islam. This book not only looks
anew at the influential ideas of al-Tirmidhībut also challenges current modes of
thought around the nature of authority in Islamicate societies"
