While prophethood is the backbone of the Islamic tradition and an
uncompromised tenet of faith, the impact of modernity with its
ambivalent status afforded to the prophet and institution of
prophethood shook many Muslim scholars. Through analysis of these
modern debates on prophethood in Islam, this book situates Muhammad
Iqbal’s (1877–1938) and Said Nursi’s (1877–1960) discourses
within it and assesses their implications on the modern period.
This book introduces the "what, who and how" of the prophets in the
Islamic tradition. It unveils the rich Islamic literature of both
the classical and modern periods and analyses the construction of
their philosophies and theologies. Concise in both historical and
textual analyses, this book makes an important contribution to our
understanding of contemporary debates on prophecy and prophethood
in Islam and will be of great interest to postgraduate students and
researchers of Islam, religious studies, medieval studies and
contemporary studies of Islam and religion.
