These 24 studies on specific symbols, images and icons from the
Muslim tradition authored by scholars from around the world.
Divided into four sections, the Divine, the Spiritual, the
Physical, and the Societal, the work examines theological issues,
such as divine unity, creation, wrath, and justice; spiritual
subjects, such as the straight path, servitude, perfection, the
jinn, intoxication, and the status of Fatimah, the daughter of the
Prophet Muhammad. Essays also explore the symbolism of physical
elements such as water, trees, seas, ships, food, the male sexual
organ, eyebrows, and camels; and the significance of more
socially-centred subjects such as the centre, ijtihad, governance,
otherness, ""Ashura"", and Arabic. Drawing from the Qur'an and
Sunnah, these topics are all tackled with tact and respect from a
position that appreciates exegetical diversity while remaining
within the realm of unity.
