The Other in the Light of the One
Reza Shah-Kazemi
The Other in the Light of the One illustrates how, throughout the centuries, Sufism has been a bastion against two tendencies: worldliness and literalism. This book relates some of the most profound interpretations of the Qur’an to philosophical and spiritual questions concerning interfaith dialogue, with the purpose not to just reproduce the ideas of the Sufis, but to build upon principles, to take advantage of insights, and to apply them creatively to contemporary conditions. Shah-Kazemi illustrates how a universalist perspective based on Sufi hermeneutics provides a third way between secular pluralism and religious exclusivism.

Written as a university textbook, Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence is an essential reference work not only for students of Islamic law, but also for anyone with an interest in Muslim society or in issues of comparative jurisprudence.
