ajiss-2996	Mugler, Joshua	Christian Monastic Life in Early Islam (by Bradley Bowman)	2022.0	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1434	43	42	For Bowman, Donner’s theory can explain much of the positive attitude toward monks that can be seen among early Muslims, indicating not only that early Muslims tolerated the existence of monks in their territory, but that many early Muslims saw monastic practice as legitimate and inspirational, whether or not these Muslims actively par- ticipated at times in the life of the monasteries. Each of these sources provides evidence that many early Muslims had great respect for the ascetic and devotional practices of the monks whom they encountered in the lands of the caliphate.	cache/ajiss-2996.pdf	txt/ajiss-2996.txt
