Description

About This Book:

The writings of Dr. Iqbal explore the complicated relationships between Islamic ideas and current problems, providing special insights and viewpoints. He engages with the Quran, Islamic philosophy, and other related subjects as he explores the rich intellectual history of Islam using his wide knowledge and study. Dr. Muzaffar Iqbal has significantly aided in closing the knowledge gap between conventional Islamic knowledge and the contemporary world as a scholar and author. His writings are intended to advance a better comprehension of Islamic principles, address current issues, and promote interaction between various religious traditions. Definitive Encounters: Islam, Muslims, and the West explores various dimensions of Islam, provides insights into the making of the contemporary Muslim world and brings into sharp relief some of the more hidden aspects of the encounter between Islam, Muslims and modern Western civilization. There encounters are viewed from the perspective of sacred history – a view of history which takes all events at the human plane as a continuum of the story of humanity, which began with the descent of Adam to Earth. Seen through this prism, cotemporary global conflicts gain a degree of depth that is often lacking in secular approaches.
