De Gruyter Platonische Ideen in der arabischen Philosophie: Texte und Materialien zur Begriffsgeschichte von suwar aflatuniyya und muthul aflatuniyya
Book SynopsisDer Einfluss der platonischen Ideenlehre umfasst nahezu alle Epochen und zahlreiche Disziplinen der westlichen Philosophiegeschichte. Kaum bekannt ist, dass auch arabisch und persisch schreibende Philosophen zu allen Zeiten „Platonische Ideen“ und „Platonische Urbilder“ diskutierten, obwohl ihnen die platonischen Dialoge selbst nicht zugänglich waren. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht, in welcher Weise und auf welchen Grundlagen diese islamischen Konzeptionen „Platonischer Ideen“ ohne jegliche Rückbindung an das platonische Œuvre doktrinal gefüllt wurden. Der erste, begriffsgeschichtliche Teil geht terminologischen und systematischen Fragen der arabisch-islamischen Auseinandersetzung mit diesen Konzeptionen in zahlreichen Werken aus dem 9. bis 17. Jahrhundert nach, darunter solchen von al-Farabi und Avicenna. Im zweiten Teil werden einige der relevanten arabischen Texte erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung zugänglich gemacht. Die Studie eröffnet damit auch dem Nichtarabisten einen ersten Einblick in einen bisher unerforschten Zweig der Rezeptionsgeschichte des Platonismus, der zugleich ein integraler Bestandteil der islamischen Geistesgeschichte ist.

ISEAS Post-Islamism Battles Political Islam in Malaysia
Book SynopsisDuring the 15th general election (GE15) in 2022 and the state elections in 2023, the clash between Anwar Ibrahim and PAS reached new heights. This can be viewed as a battle between political Islam and post-Islamism.Political Islam as embodied by PAS pursues the establishment of an Islamic state, while post-Islamism as represented by Anwar Ibrahim is a way of balancing the ambitions of Islam with secular approaches. While PAS has been consistent in espousing political Islam since its establishment, Anwar Ibrahim's approach to the role of Islam in politics has changed since his early days in UMNO. Evolving from an Islamist involved in state-led Islamization to a post-Islamist, he now espouses democratic values and multiculturalism.GE15 and the 2023 state elections witnessed fierce competition between PAS and Anwar Ibrahim. Both sides either escalated or downplayed crucial topics such as the implementation of hudud law and RUU355, the myth of Islam and Malays being under threat, the claim that states under PAS are discriminated against, and the takfiri denouncements of non-Muslims as election candidates or potential leaders of the country.The results of GE15 and the 2023 state elections between PAS and Anwar Ibrahim, who is now prime minister, show that there will certainly be sequels to come. The elections illustrate that political Islam is growing in strength. This is most evident in the fact that PAS currently has a whopping forty-three seats in the Malaysian parliament, and controls four states. The only way Anwar Ibrahim can remain in power is through assistance from PAS' old nemesis, UMNO, a party heavily tainted by corruption.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Cause and Explanation in Ancient Philosophy
Book SynopsisThis volume offers an updated analysis of the use, meaning, and scope of the classical notion of aitia. It clarifies philosophical and philological questions about aitia and offers bold and innovative interpretations of this key concept of ancient philosophy.The numerous meanings and nuances of aitia remain difficult to grasp. Ancient philosophers use aitia to explain the existence and activity of substances, bodies, souls, or gods. Paradoxically, its own definition remains difficult to establish. This book reconstructs some of the most important uses, variants, and scopes of the term aitia within different philosophical perspectives in antiquity, including early Greek philosophy, Plato, Aristotle, Stoicism, and Islamic philosophy. The chapters analyze metaphysical aspects, epistemological issues, and logical implications of aitia. They engage with the most relevant critical literature generated in several modern languages.

Taylor & Francis Nonbelievers Apostates and Atheists in the Muslim
Book SynopsisNonbelievers, Apostates, and Atheists in the Muslim World offers a contemporary, cross-cultural look at nonbelief and nonreligion in Islam. Providing historical, conceptual, statistical, and ethnographic data on nonbelievers from Morocco to Egypt, Turkey, and Bangladesh, it explores the unique nature and challenges of nonreligion for Muslims.It includes 11 chapters by experts on nonbelief, nonreligion, and atheism in an array of Muslim-majority countries. The book features multiple disciplines and offers both ethnographic and statistical information on this important, growing, but neglected population. It explores the unique nature of nonreligion in Islam, illustrating that nonbelief is specific to a particular religious tradition. It also examines how ex-Muslims navigate complexities and dangers of their societiesâespecially for womenâand how nonbelief and nonreligion do not equate to atheism or the total repudiation of religion or of Muslim identity.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Islamic Occasionalism
Book SynopsisOriginally published in 1958.Occasionalism is generally associated in the history of philosophy with the name of Malébranche . But long before this time, the Muslim Theologians of the ninth and tenth centuries had developed an occasionalist metaphysics of atoms and accidents. Arguing that a number of distinctively Islamic concepts such as fatalism and the surrender of personal endeavour cannot be fully understood except in the perspective of the occasionalist world view of Islam, the volume also discusses the attacks on Occasionalism made by Averroes and St. Thomas Aquinas. Table of ContentsChapter 1 The Islamic Metaphysics of Atoms and Accidents; Chapter 2 The Repudiation of Causality by al-Ghaz?l?; Chapter 3 The Averroist Rehabilitation of Causality; Chapter 4 The Causal Dilemma and the Thomist Synthesis;
