Thebook illuminates the diverse ways in which Islam, from the time of its arrivalin India in the twelfth century through its height as the ruling theology to itsdecline, adapted to its new cultural context to become "Indianized."Muzaffar Alam shows that the adoption of Arabo-Persian Islam in India changedthe manner in which Islamic rule and governance were conducted. Islamicprinciples could not regulate beliefs in a vast country without acceptingcultural limitations and limits on the exercise of power. As a result ofcultural adaptation, Islam was in the end forced to reinvent its principles forreligious rule. Acculturation also forced key Islamic terms to change sofundamentally that Indian Islam could be said to have acquired a charactersubstantially different from the Islam practiced outside of India.
