Reopening Muslim Minds - A Return to Reason, Freedom, and Tolerance
Author(s): Mustafa Akyol
In Reopening Muslim Minds, Mustafa Akyol frankly diagnoses "the crisis of Islam" in the modern world and offers an authentic way forward. Diving deeply into Islamic theology and sharing lessons from his own life story, he reveals how Muslims lost the universalism that made them a great civilization in their earlier centuries-and what the cost has been. Akyol borrows lost visions from medieval Muslim thinkers such as Ibn Rushd to offer a new Muslim worldview on a range of burning issues: human rights, equality for women, freedom of speech, and freedom of religion. By rereading the Qur'an, revisiting the Shari'ah, and "dismantling the theological roadblock" that disallows such questioning, Akyol shows the path to the much-discussed renewal in Islam.
