Egyptian-Islamic views on the comparison of religions : positions of Al-Azhar University scholars on Muslim-Christian relations
About this book
Al-Azhar University is widely regarded as the most prestigious educational institution in Sunni Islam. In this capacity, it plays an important role in Egyptian society, also touching on the relationship between Muslims and Christians. The present study examines the writings of three contemporary Al-Azhar scholars in an effort to identify the operative understanding of comparative religions (namely Islam and Christianity) in each case. The study identifies various paradigms and provides impulses for a methodological reorientation in an effort to promote mutual understanding.
