Description
Summary:How does the Qur'an depict the religious Other? Throughout Islamic history, this question has provoked extensive and intricate debate about the identity, nature, and status of the religious Other and the religious self. This book critically highlights a pervasive inability to account for both religious commonalities and religious differences without resorting to models that depict religions as isolated entities or models that arrange religions in a static, evaluative hierarchy, and constructs an alternative conceptual and hermeneutical approach.
