This has traditionally been portrayed as a battle between philosophy and theology, but the book shows that Averroes was rather more religious and Al-Ghazali more philosophical than they are usually portrayed. The book traces the interaction between two Muslim thinkers, showing how each is convinced of the existence of a Book in which God is revealed to rational beings, to whom He has given commandments, 410 0$aCulture and civilisation in the Middle East. 606 $aIslamic philosophy 615 0$aIslamic philosophy. 676 $a181/.07 700 $aWohlman$b Avital.$0525982 701 $aBurrell$b David B$0159332 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820319203321 996 $aAl-Ghazali, Averroes and the interpretation of the Qur'an$93977103 997 $aUNINA
