Summary:

In 'Reason and Revelation in Islam', Ahmed Oulddali presents the psychological and epistemological ideas which underlie Fahr al-Din al-Razi?s speculative exegesis. Known as one of the few Muslim theologians to have proposed a philosophical interpretation of the Qur'an, Razi appears here as an innovative thinker, deeply convinced of the need to rely on rational methods to understand revelation. His formal rejection of literalism and his multiple borrowings from Avicenna?s philosophy are explained as a consequence of a conception of knowledge in which reason plays a decisive role. Richly infused with illustrative texts and original translations from Arab sources, Oulddali?s book offers an overview of the philosophical, theological and exegetical issues to which the thinking of Razi responds.
