Notably, it places the discussion of these topics within a longer historical framework in order to reveal their multiple interpretations and contested applications over time. Most public and some academic discourses however present the Islamic tradition as unchanging and therefore unable to respond to the modern world. Such an ahistorical approach fosters the belief that Muslim and Western societies are destined to clash with one another. In contrast, this book allows the reader to see the diversity and transformations within Islamic thought over time. Focusing on this internal diversity permits us to appreciate the scriptural and intellectual resources available within the Islamic tradition for responding to the challenges of modernity, even as it interrogates and shapes modernity itself.Islam21st centuryIslam and politicsMiddle EastHILCCRegions & Countries - Asia & the Middle EastHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCIslamIslam and politicsMiddle EastRegions & Countries - Asia & the Middle EastHistory & Archaeology939.4-956Afsaruddin Asma696649PQKBBOOK9910798607703321Contemporary issues in Islam3675285UNINA00885nam0-22002771i-450 99000536112040332120240125105608.0000536112FED01000536112(Aleph)000536112FED0100053611219990530d1960----km-y0itay50------baitay-------001yyNota in margine ai restauri del mosaico BarberiniMichelangelo Cagiano de AzvedoRomas.e.1960225 p.25 cmEstratto dal vol.
