Islam's renewal
reform or revolt? /[electronic resource] :by Derek Hopwood. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2018. - xi, 198 p. :digital ;22 cm. - St Antony's series. - St Antony's series..
Part I Revolt -- 1. Introduction -- 2. Libya; first experience of the Arab world and Islam -- 3. How the Middle East came to be studied -- 4. Leaders of revival in Islam -- 5. Two historical movements -- 6. Leaders and state formation -- 7. Leaders against colonialism -- Part II Islamic renewal; calls for reform -- 8. A way of approaching Islamic history -- 9. Thinkers, not activists -- 10. What is modernity in Islam -- Part III Revolts renewed -- 11. Features of later twentieth and twenty first century movements -- 12. Renewal again -- 13. The post-modern era; the rage of Islam -- 14. Post-modern reaction -- 15. Palestine; the root cause of Muslim despair? -- 16 Conclusion; a hope for tolerance.
The book considers some of the solutions proposed by Muslim activists and thinkers in their attempts to renew (tajdid) their ways of life and thought in accord with the demands of the age in which they lived. The two ways of reacting are studied - the movements led by men of action and inspiration, and the thoughts of quietist scholars who laid greater emphasis on calm continuity. These two streams have often collided and particularly so in the contemporary age of greater violence. Other related problems are also considered: how a non-Muslim should regard the religion of the 'other'; the ways modernization have been dealt with; and the two root causes of Muslim 'rage' today - the invasions of the West and the failure to reach an equitable solution to the problem of Palestine. Building on the author's sixty-year experience researching the history of Islam, the book will appeal to students and scholars across the fields of Islamic studies, religious history and Middle Eastern politics.
