The first work of its kind in English. An indepth study of the classification of knowledge in Islam according to Al-Farabi, Al-Ghazzali, and Al-Shirazi.
(Rational Proof on the Existence of God between Mutakallimeen and Philosophers).
This book is based on research on Paul and his life as founder and an architect of Christianity. While some have argued, from the period in which he lived up until today, that Paul was a lunatic who thought himself to be the chosen one with his God-given inspiration, some on the otehr hand have defended the view that he is one of the most important figures, if not the central figure, in the history of Christianity.
In this book the logical framework of various versions of the cosmological argument for the existqance of God along with their characteristic concomitant critiques is analyzed.
In what sense is it rational?This study is one of the most comprehensive investigations on rationality and science in this field. It attempts to disclose the nature of rationality. It seeks to develop a coherent account of rationality, based on the notion of 'fundamenrtal rationality' as the common ground of all rationalities and the 'situated rationalitues.'
It is an in-depth exploration of the relationship between Islam and science from the emergence of of the Islamic scientific tradition in the eighth century to the present time.
This book brings into sharp relief important dilemmas faced by the Muslim world today, especially in reference to modern science and technology . . .
"This book approaches the question of technology from an Islamic ethical perspective. The book tries to broaden the scope of the Sharia to deal comprehensively with the ethical questions and dilemmas that arise in the midst of a postmodern technological culture due to the absence of well-defined religious-ethical ends. It looks at the maqasid as a universal ethical theory to be interpreted and applied in the global technological context. It weaves the contemporary philosophical analysis of technology within the maqasid discourse and assesses modern technology through the lens of the ultimate aims and purposes of the Sharia. It works out the relationship between the various objectives and how they can be developed into an Islamic ethics of technology. Following in the recent interest in the objectives of the Sharia, the book further expands the scope of the maqasid and carries it further to encompass metaphysical and ethical debates surrounding technology. Anyone interested in finding alternatives to the existing technological model will find this book valuable. Specifically those interested in Islam and Modern World and how ijtihad is being undertaken to tackle contemporary ethical problems will find this book helpful."
