This is an era when the Islamic World is making a range of attempts
to redefine itself and to grapple with the challenges of modernity.
Many schools of thought have emerged which seek to position modern
Islam within the context of a rapidly changing contemporary world.
Exploring and defining the relationship between religion and
knowledge, Ismail Rafi Al-Faruqi, a distinguished 20th century
Arab-American scholar of Islam, formulated ideas which have made
substantial contributions to the Islam-and-modernity discourse. His
review of the interaction between Islam and knowledge examines the
philosophy behind this relationship, and the ways in which Islam
can relate to our understanding of science, the arts, architecture,
technology and other knowledge-based fields of enquiry. This book
includes contributions from Seyyed Hossein Nasr, John Esposito,
Charles Fletcher and others, and will prove an essential reference
point for scholars of Islam and students of philosophy and
comparative religion.
