The rapid developments of the modern age have given rise to complex theological and philosophical challenges for Muslim scholarly communities. To confront these questions, editors Ebrahim Moosa and Joshua Lupo have curated a collection of essays offering balanced and nuanced perspectives that amplify the richness of the Islamic traditions while avoiding both conservative nostalgia or progressive amnesia.
Engaging the Madrasa grapples with the loss and reimagining of tradition in the modern world, bringing together madrasa scholars from India, Pakistan, and the United States to confront themes such as gender equality, the nation-state, colonial legacies, the role of technology, and more. In doing so, the contributors use both modern science and Islamic theological discourse to chart new pathways for Muslim scholars and theologians around the globe to draw on.
Ebrahim Moosa is the Mirza Family Professor of Islamic Thought and Muslim Societies at the University of Notre Dame. He is the author of many books, including What Is a Madrasa? and Ghazālī and the Poetics of Imagination. Joshua Lupo is the assistant director of the Contending Modernities research initiative. With Atalia Omer, he is the co-editor of, most recently, Religion, Modernity, and the Global Afterlives of Colonialism.
