Popis: | Any invitation to probe the relationship between the nature of God and human violence done in God's name would seem to be welcome, whether extended by Muslims or by Christians. Medieval Muslim scholar Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī considered this question along with several other themes relevant to Christian–Muslim conversation in his massive commentary on the Qur'an. Analysis of his treatment of these themes reveals the unique patterns of al-Rāzī's exegetical method, along with both the freedom and the limitations of his rationality. |
