| Summary: | "The book discusses some major 21st century trends, issues and challenges of Islamic intellectual tradition vis-à-vis the contributions, academic outpouring and approaches of some prominent contemporary Muslim scholars of the Indo-Pak subcontinent within the broader context of 'reformism' and through the lens of 'reformist thought'. It highlights some of the major currents and trends of Islamic thought by focusing on South Asian Muslim thinkers and their contributions to modern Islamic religious and intellectual thought. Set against the background of the tradition versus modernity debate, it addresses perennial themes pertaining to Islamic primary sources and engages in legal, socio-political and gender aspects through the writings of select thinkers of the subcontinent. The book is expected to benefit the students and scholars of Islamic Studies, South Asian Studies and allied subjects in assessing vernacular perspective on current religious, socio-legal and political discourses"-- |
