Islamic Reformism and Christianity

No previous full-scale study has been undertaken so far to study the polemical writings of the Muslim reformist Muḥammad Rashīd Riḍā (1865-1935) and his associates in his well-known journal al-Manār (The Lighthouse). The book focuses on the dynamics of Muslim understanding of Christianity during the late 19th and the early 20th century in the light of al-Manār’s sources of knowledge, and its answers to the social, political and theological aspects of missionary movements in the Muslim World of Riḍā’s age. The basis of the analysis encompasses the voluminous publications by Riḍā and other Manārists in his journal. Besides, it makes use of newly-discovered materials, including Riḍā’s private papers, and some other remaining personal archives of some of his associates.

private papers in Cairo (no date). In the background shadow of the detail of the front-page of

Christians and Muslims have been involved in exchanges over matters of faith and morality
since the founding of Islam. Attitudes between the faiths today are deeply coloured by the
legacy of past encounters, and often preserve centuries-old negative views.
The History of Christian-Muslim Relations, Texts and Studies presents the surviving record of
past encounters in authoritative, fully introduced text editions and annotated translations, and
also monograph and collected studies. It illustrates the development in mutual perceptions
as these are contained in surviving Christian and Muslim writings, and makes available the
arguments and rhetorical strategies that, for good or for ill, have left their mark on attitudes
today. The series casts light on a history marked by intellectual creativity and occasional
breakthroughs in communication, although, on the whole beset by misunderstanding and
misrepresentation. By making this history better known, the series seeks to contribute to
improved recognition between Christians and Muslims in the future.
