Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Islamic thinkers are often studied sociologically rather than as theologians. There are many accessible introductions to Christian theologians, but very few such studies of Islamic thinkers. This book, and this series, seeks to change this situation: offering new introductions to influential Islamic thinkers and engaging, at the level of ideas, with the rich depths of contemporary Islamic theology. This book introduces to the English-speaking world the leading modern Islamic thinker Said Nursi (1878-1960) - who has some nine million followers in modern day Turkey and around the world. After an opening chapter that provides an overview of his life, the next four chapters outline the theology of Nursi on God, the Qur'an, the West and Politics. The final section provides an invaluable resource of readings from Nursi's most important writings. Providing an introduction to a major form of Islam which is committed to non-violence, dialogue and constructive relationships with the West, this is the first student textbook to introduce a contemporary Islamic theologian in a systematic way.

Book excerpt: In the many dimensions of his lifetime of achievement as well as in his personality and character, Bediüzzaman Said Nursi (1877–1960) was and, through his continuing influence, still is an important thinker and writer in the Muslim world. At a time when science and philosophy were tools of an aggressive ideology of secularism, Nursi strove for the revival of an Islamic consciousness. Even though his nonviolent stance was clear, he was seen as a potential danger and exiled to different corners of Anatolia. During the exile, he started writing his magnum opus “Risale-i Nur” (Epistles of Light), by which he aimed to guide people to the truths of faith and make them understand the Qur’an correctly. This book provides a summary of this hard but fruitful life, spent in the way of faith.

Download or read book Said Nursi and Science in Islam written by Necati Aydin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how the prominent Muslim scholar Said Nursi developed an integrative approach to faith and science known as "the other indicative" (mana-i harfi) and explores how his aim to reconcile two academic disciplines, often at odds with one another, could be useful in an educational context. The book opens by examining Nursi’s evolving thought with regards to secular ideology and modern science. It then utilizes the mana-i harfi approach to address a number of issues, including truth and certainty, the relationship between knowledge and worldview formation, and the meaning of beings and life. Finally, it offers a seven-dimensional knowledge approach to derive meaning and build good character through understanding scientific knowledge in the mana-i harfi perspective. This book offers a unique perspective on one of recent Islam’s most influential figures, and also offers suggestions for teaching religion and science in a more nuanced way. It is, therefore, a great resource for scholars of Islam, religion and science, Middle East studies, and educational studies.

Nursi argued that Islam must be organically linked to empire in order to preserve its identity in the modern era, fostering a spiritual tradition that has steadfastly survived the secular project of Kemalism.

This work is dedicated to the thought and ideas of Said Nursi (1876-1960), one of the most prominent Muslim theologians of the twentieth century. Nursi inspired a faith movement--the Nur community--that originated in Turkey. It continues to play a key role in the revival of Islam and now numbers several millions of followers worldwide.

Nursi studies is now an established discipline, and this volume is a celebration of that reality. As it reveals, Muslims and Christians are grappling with the wisdom of this remarkable, rich thinker.

Book excerpt: Bediüzzaman Said Nursi (1877-1960) is one of the most influential thinkers of the modern era and a person of action who suffered deeply from the sorrows that have inflicted Islam and the whole of humanity. Not only did he interpret the present age accurately, but he also committed himself to his cause, dedicating his entire life to the service of the Qur'an. In an era in which few could see any hope for the future - a time when the world was in great crisis and all hope seemed to have disappeared from the horizons - Nursi stood and shouted. "Do not lose hope! The loudest and strongest voice in the coming upheavals and changes will be the voice of Islam." Although he lived a life of continuous persecution and spent his years in exile and imprisonment. Nursi strove to use his extraordinary talents in the service of the Qur'an with the aim of enlightening the entire world. He saw that the attacks on Islam driven by ideologies like atheism, materialism, and communism could not be countered successfully through individual efforts. It was necessary for believers to pull together and form an unshakeable circle around the Qur'an. Nursi shared the honor of "service of the Qur'an" with these people who participated actively and passionately in this service, hoping to be of service in the revival of faith. Following many years of struggle, Nursi managed to make his voice heard, and he was able to get through to hearts and convince minds. Through publishing his Risale-i Nur collection-a 5000-page modern commentary of the Qur'an, he spread the light of faith against the darkness of disbelief, materialism, and ignorance. Indeed, the greatest' fruit of Bediüzzaman's nearly one century of life was his magnum opus-the Risale-i Nur and the formation of a community - closely bound to the Qur'an - whose members dedicated their lives to spreading the truths of faith among the people of the world. This book presents a summary of his difficult but fruitful life, spent In the way of faith. Book jacket.
