Freethinkers of Medieval Islam focuses on the express denial of
prophecy in the medieval Islamicate world. The development of
Islamic freethinking is analyzed against the background of the
significance of prophets in Islam. In her book, Sarah Stroumsa
examines the image of freethinkers, and the repercussions of
freethinking on Muslim, Jewish and Christian medieval thought. She
argue that freethinking, as exemplified by figures like Ibn
al-Rawandi (9th C.) and Abu Bakr al-Razi (10th C.), was a pivotal
phenomenon, that had a major impact on the development of Islamic
thought. In the present context of religious violence carried out
in the name of Islam, this book highlights the striking existence
of independent freethinking in the world of Islam.
