About This Book

The Ethics of Disagreement offers a profound exploration of the etiquette and principles Islam promotes for intellectual dialogue and discourse. Rather than focusing on rigid legal arguments or theological disputes, the book emphasizes the higher objectives of the Shari'ah—objectives that encourage unity, wisdom, and thoughtful engagement over divisive debate. The author highlights how prolonged involvement in unproductive arguments can dull one’s ability to understand real-world situations and make sound judgments in dynamic circumstances. Originally written to address tensions among Islamic political parties, the book draws deeply from classical Muslim history, especially the conduct of the early jurists (fuqaha), who—despite their scholarly disagreements—maintained mutual respect and never lost sight of their greater responsibilities or the spirit of the Shari'ah.
