Certain Sympathy of Scriptures : Biblical and Quranic
ISBN: 9781845190125 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Can there be genuine sympathy between the Bible and the Qur an? Their peoples have been at odds so long, disputing their texts and discounting their credentials. Scholars from both faiths have contrived intriguing comparison of narratives about Abraham, Joseph or Moses but with little relevance to the contemporary scene and its demand for religious converse and sanity. A Certain Sympathy of Scriptures attempts something more central to the essential interest of both Scriptures, more cogent in this 21st century (the 15th Islam). It is a concern with three shared dimensions: The divine will for...

ISBN: 9781902210155 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

The Qur'an and the West
ISBN: 9781589010864 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Kenneth Cragg (1913-2012) was one of the West's most gifted interpreters of Islam. In this deeply insightful, classic work of Qur'anic studies, he argues that the West must put aside a "spiritual imperialism" that draws on Western prescripts alien to Muslims and "learn to come within" Islam. Only then can a conversation begin that can relieve the misunderstandings and suspicion that has grown between Islam and the West in the years since 9/11. Cragg's close and thoughtful readings are as timely and relevant now as they were when The Qur'an and the West was originally...

Faith at Suicide : Lives in Forfeit - Violent Religion - Human Despair
ISBN: 9781845191108 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Purposeful suicide in contemporary Islam and the deep pathos in its frequency for religious ends is the main impulse to the topic of Faith at Suicide. The Islamic phenomenon needs to be set in a wider context which reckons with suicide s incidence elsewhere, with its uneasy associations in martyrdom and with how it interrogates or is interrogated by the ethics of religious faith. The enigma of wilful suicide is no less a challenge to sanity or compassion when such faith is absent from the deed or dimly yearned for by it. I am pregnant with my cause, orators may boast. But they were never...

Readings in the Qur'an
ISBN: 9781902210315 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 389 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Readings in the Qur an" aims to meet the needs of non-Muslims who wish to discover the beauty and meaning of this great religious work. The Qur an is recited more constantly than any other Scripture, but in many ways it is a difficult book for the Western reader as its sequences are neither chronological or thematic, and indeed its logic, its meaning, its order, and its times can initially seem perplexing and strange, however, this introductory collection of essays guides the beginner and offers a rationale for this three-sided approach and reflection on the relevance of the Qur an in the...

The separate events of Islamic scripture are not difficult to chronicle, but what kind of event does the whole of the Qur'an represent? How should we understand the coming together of a charismtic personality, poetic eloquence, developing Arab consciousness, and a vibrant longing for God, into the single phenomenon of the Qur'an? What is the inner story of the prophethood that Islam regards as God's final revelation for humanity? How did geographical setting, culture and traditions enter into the Qur'an's metaphors and shape its message? These questions are examined in this study of Islam in...
