Know about the book -
Sacred Space and Holy War is written by Juan Ricardo Cole and published by I.B. Tauris. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1860647367 (ISBN 10) and 9781860647369 (ISBN 13).
Juan Cole examines Shi'i Islam as a world religion that has faced modernity on its own terms. He explores the little known history of Shi'i communities as far afield as Bahrain and India, giving attention as well to important centers such as Lebanon , Iraq, and Iran. He demonstrates the way in which the Shi'is have sought to define space and time as sacred, and to defend those spaces from encroachment by the Other, whether that other be Sunni Arab, Hindu, or European Christian.
