Loin des bruits et des fureurs de l’actualité, penser l’islam avec Souleymane Bachir Diagne invite à replacer le Coran et ses lectures dans l’histoire de la pensée en général. Car ici, l’islam n’est pas marginal : son discours inscrit dans l’universel la quête spirituelle qui engage les hommes à travers des millénaires. La réflexion du philosophe sénégalais qui enseigne à l’Université américaine de Columbia est ainsi orientée autour d’une religion dynamique, libératrice, promotrice des valeurs qui portent la citoyenneté, le vivre-ensemble dans le respect de la singularité de l’autre, bref dans le respect de sa différence. Elle souligne que ces valeurs, structurant désormais le cadre de la politique depuis la modernité, ne sont pas en dissonance avec les enseignements islamiques sur l’attention à autrui, sur le respect de toute vie, sur les préoccupations environnementales. Au contraire, sa pensée redessine la modernité du discours islamique, son actualité et sa vitalité dans un monde qui connaît de profondes mutations : économique, sociale, écologique, culturelle, technologique et scientifique. Voici une pensée essentielle pour les femmes et les hommes contemporains de bonne volonté.

This volume offers an account of Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazālī (d. 505/1111) as a rational theologian who created a symbiosis of philosophy and theology and infused rationality into Sufism. The majority of the papers herein deal with important topics of al-Ghazālī’s work, which demonstrate his rational treatment of the Qurʾān and major subjects of Islamic theology and everyday life of Muslims. Some other contributions address al-Ghazālī’s sources and how his intellectual endeavors were later received by scholars who had the same concern of reconciling religion and rationality within Islam, Christianity and Judaism. With contributions by Binyamin Abrahamov, Hans Daiber, Ken Garden, Avner Giladi, Scott Girdner, Frank Griffel, Steven Harvey, Alfred Ivry, Jules Janssens, Taneli Kukkonen, Luis Xavier López-Farjeat, Wilferd Madelung, Yahya M. Michot, Yasien Mohamed, Eric Ormsby, M. Sait Özervarlı, and Hidemi Takahashi.

Since the earliest period of Islamic history, Arab thought and reason has been dominated by a reverence for tradition and textual analysis. In this groundbreaking work, the great contemporary Arab philosopher Mohammed Abed al-Jabri seeks to chart a course towards modernity via the proposition that respect for textualism and tradition are not inconsistent with rationalism, and that both history and philosophy are key to the evolution of knowledge systems and ways of reasoning in Arab culture. Al-Jabri dissects the systems through which knowledge is obtained and verified in Arab thought, and demonstrates their fundamental bias towards analogical reasoning and premodern authoritative referents, some of which are inherently resistant to empirical analysis. In an impassioned defence of rationalism, he argues that these textual reference points must be interpreted and mediated with critical analytical tools. He advocates an evolution of Arab thought to accommodate the changeability of values, interpretations and structures over space and time, to escape an a-historical imprisonment. Since the earliest period of Islamic history, Arab thought has been dominated by a reverence for tradition and textual analysis. In this groundbreaking work, the great contemporary Arab philosopher Mohammed Abed Al-Jabiri seeks to chart a route towards modernity via the proposition that respect for textualism and tradition are not inconsistent with rationalism and that both history and philosophy are key to the evolution of knowledge systems and ways of reasoning in Arab culture. This book has been an enormous influence within the Arab world on the 'Islam and Modernity' discourse. It is published here for the first time in English and provides a fascinating insight into the currents of contemporary Arab thought.
