Theodore Abū Qurra, Abū Rā’iṭa and ‘Ammār al-Baṣrī provide valuable insight into early Christian-Muslim debate shortly after the rise of the Islamic empire. Through close examination of their writings on the doctrine of the Trinity, Sara Husseini demonstrates the creativity of these theologians, who make use of language, style and argumentation characteristic of Islamic theological thought (kalām), in order to help articulate their long-established religious truths. Husseini offers close analysis of the authors individually and comparatively, exploring their engagement with Islamic theology and their role in this fascinating period.History of Christian-Muslim relations ;Volume 21.GodSimplicityHistory of doctrinesGod (Islam)Christianity and other religionsIslamIslamRelationsChristianityGodSimplicityHistory of doctrines.God (Islam)Christianity and other religionsIslam.IslamRelationsChristianity.231/.04409175927Husseini Sara Leila1651885MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819139303321Early Christian-Muslim debate on the unity of God4002143UNINA
