Description

Despite its status as one of the great traditions of Sunni Islamic systematic theology, the M?tur?d? school and its major texts have remained largely inaccessible to a Western audience. As the first reader of M?tur?d? theology ever produced in a Western language, this volume meets an urgent need among scholars and general readers. It features selections ranging from the founder, Ab? Man??r al-M?tur?d?, to key texts from the broader M?tur?d? tradition up to the 18th century. Each selection includes the original Arabic text and an annotated English translation, preceded by a short introduction. The volume's structure mirrors the classical compendia of Islamic systematic theology, known as kal?m , exploring questions of Epistemology and Ontology; Metaphysics; Prophethood; Faith, Knowledge and Acts; and Free Will, Predestination, and the Problem of Evil.
