Universal Dimensions of Islam

Studies in Comparative Religion

About this book

Islam's acceptance of other religions remains an enigma for many Westerners. The 16 essays in this volume, by renowned experts on Islam such as Frithjof Schuon, Rene Guenon, Titus Burckhardt, and Seyyed Hossein Nasr, explore the fundamental universality of the world's second largest religion, presenting an incisive portrait of Islam that is seldom seen in the mass media. This book is another volume in World Wisdom's Studies in Comparative Religion series.
