A unique collection of studies, the present volume sheds new light
on central themes of Ibn Taymiyya's (661/1263-728/1328) and Ibn
Qayyim al-Jawziyya's (691/1292-751/1350) thought and the relevance
of their ideas to diverse Muslim societies. Investigating their
positions in Islamic theology, philosophy and law, the
contributions discuss a wide range of subjects, e.g. law and order;
the divine compulsion of human beings; the eternity of
eschatological punishment; the treatment of Sufi terminology; and
the proper Islamic attitude towards Christianity. Notably, a
section of the book is dedicated to analyzing Ibn Taymiyya's
struggle for and against reason as well as his image as a
philosopher in contemporary Islamic thought. Several articles
present the influential legacy of both thinkers in shaping an
Islamic discourse facing the challenges of modernity. This volume
will be especially useful for students and scholars of Islamic
studies, philosophy, sociology, theology, and history of ideas.
