As a result of world events over the past few years, Islam has
entered our consciousness in an unprecedented way. The Qur'an,
guiding text for over one billion Muslims, is being looked to for
answers to questions like: does the Qur'an promote peace and
harmony or discord and conflict, does it contribute to pluralism or
exclusivism, is its message spiritual or fanatical? Based on a
profound study of the Sufi perspective of the likes of Ibn Arabi,
Rumi and Ghazali, "The Other in the Light of the One" is an attempt
to answer the above questions and is an invitation to study the
universality that is present in the Qur'an. Its aim is to relate
some of the most profound interpretations of the Qur'an to
philosophical and spiritual questions concerning interfaith
dialogue. 'The Other in the Light of the One' provides the basis
for dialogue and mutual enrichment on aspects of religious life and
thought that go beyond the outward forms of belief, yielding fruit
not only in the practical domain of peaceful coexistence, but also
in the fields of metaphysical insight and spiritual realisation.
For Muslims, 'The Other in the Light of the One' offers a
pioneering view of 'da'wa', in that it illustrates the tangible
means of putting into practice the many Qur'anic verses that
commend discourse with others in a manner that is 'finest, most
beautiful'('ahsan').
