  • Origins, nature, and significance of Islamic theology

    The beginnings of theology in the Islamic tradition in the second half of the 7th century are not easily distinguishable from the beginnings of a number of other disciplines—Arabic philology, Qur?anic interpretation, the collection of the sayings and deeds of Muhammad (Hadith), jurisprudence (fiqh), and historiography. Together with these other disciplines, Islamic theology is concerned with ascertaining the facts and context of the Islamic revelation and with understanding its meaning and implications as to what Muslims should believe and do after the revelation had ceased and the Islamic community had to chart its own way. https://www.britannica.com/ Explore»

  • Islamic Theology – Introduction

    When it comes to Islamic Theology, the essential Muslim profession of faith is, “La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadu Rasool Allah. [There is no God but God and Muhammad is the Messenger of God.]” There are several sources for the study of Islam. Of foremost importance is the Qur’an itself. The Qur’an, (from the verb qara’a “to read” or “to recite”), is the holy book of Islam. Muslims believe that the Qur’an is the literal word of God (Arabic Allah) and the culmination of God’s revelation to mankind as revealed to Muhammad, the final prophet of humanity, over a period of twenty-three years through the angel Jibril. In this text we use primarily the translation of A. Yusuf Ali.1 While it is an older translation (sounding much like the King James Version of the Bible), it is well respected and widely known.www.allaboutworldview.org Explore»
