For Fitzroy Morrissey, historian and expert on the Islamic world, Muslim thinkers and believers are central to this transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this rigorous and engaging account, Morrissey examines how these thinkers and believers have reinterpreted the Muslim faith in their approaches to gender, politics and history; the modern history of Sunni-Shi‘i and Muslim-non-Muslim relations; and contemporary efforts to establish moderate and progressive forms of Islam in response to the rise of Salafi-jihadism. He shows how over the past few centuries, the insights of contemporary Muslim thinkers have developed – and in some cases transformed – the meaning of the faith.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthoritative and surprising, Thinkers and Believers is an essential read from a leading author in this field.\u003c\/p\u003e,\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Binding: Hardback,\u003cbr\u003ePagination: 368 pages","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48032485572835,"sku":"9781804542170","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1701\/6275\/files\/9781804542170.jpg?v=1770471030","url":"https:\/\/www.harbourbookshop.co.uk\/products\/9781804542170","provider":"The Harbour Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
