Zar is both a possessing spirit and a
set of reconciliation rites between the
spirits and their human hosts: living
in a parallel yet invisible world, the
capricious spirits manifest their anger
by causing ailments for their hosts,
which require ritual reconciliation,
a private sacrificial rite practiced
routinely by the afflicted devotees.
Originally spread from Ethiopia to the
Red Sea and the Arabian Gulf through
the nineteenth-century slave trade, in
Egypt zar has incorporated elements
from popular Islamic Sufi practices,
including devotion to Christian
and Muslim saints. The ceremonies
initiate devotees—the majority of
whom are Muslim women — into a
community centered on a cult leader,
a membership that provides them
with moral orientation, social support,
and a sense of belonging. Practicing
zar rituals, dancing to zar songs, and
experiencing trance restore their well-
being, which had been compromised by
gender asymmetry and globalization.
This new ethnographic study of
zar in Egypt is based on the author s
two years of multi-sited fieldwork and
firsthand knowledge as a participant,
and her collection and analysis of more
than three hundred zar songs, allowing
her to access levels of meaning that
had previously been overlooked.
The result is a comprehensive and
accessible exposition of the history,
culture, and waning practice of zar in
a modernizing world.
