Islam and the Living Law: The Ibn Al-Arabi Approach
Eric Winkel
Ibn Al Arabi, the mystic scholar of the 13th century, highlights the ambiguities of language and the polysemantic, multifaceted text of the Quran. With Al Arabi's help, Winkel expounds how narrowly religion is interpreted by most scholars. Al Arabi disturbs the comfort of man-made religion by his reflections on language, and Winkel's book takes up the same challenge.
