Infos

This monograph endeavors to chart the development of kalam and Islamic philosophy during the early modern Maghreb. The primary focus is on the Moroccan thinker Ibn Ya?qub al-Wallali (d. 1716) and his text Ashraf al-Maqasid fi Sharh al-Maqasid. It sheds light on al-Wallali's contribution to Islamic philosophy by examining his interpretation of some topics in epistemology, metaphysics, and physics. It also involves the reception of al-Razi's (d. 1210) and al-Taftazani's (d. 1390) works in the Maghreb. The book attempts to offer a re-evaluation of the prevailing claims in the scholarship that has dominated the region, asserting that the engagement with Islamic philosophy in the Maghreb continued beyond the time of al-Sanusi (d. 1490).
