Al-Ghazālī and the Ismailis: A Debate on Reason and Authority in Medieval Islam
Distributed in the U.S. By St. Martin's Press (2001)
| Abstract | Al-Ghazali is arguably one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Islam, and his writings have received greater scholarly attention in the West than those of any other Muslim scholar. This study explores an important dimension of his thought that has not yet been fully examined, namely, his polemical engagement with the Ismailis of the Fatimid and early Alamut periods. Published in association with The Institute of Ismaili Studies. | |||||||||
