Description

Al-M tur d (d. 944 CE) was a prominent Hanafi scholar from Samarqand whose theological framework remains foundational to Sunni Islam today. This revised English translation of the acclaimed 1997 German original provides a comprehensive examination of his teachings and their historical significance. Part one traces the development of Hanafi thought throughout Transoxania before M tur d 's era, establishing the intellectual context that shaped his work. Part two explores the competing religious movements, particularly the Mu'tazilites, that flourished during his lifetime. This scholarly volume situates M tur d 's doctrines within the broader history of kal m (Islamic philosophical theology), revealing how his formulations addressed theological debates and achieved lasting influence across Sunni communities. Essential reading for students and scholars of Islamic intellectual history, medieval theology, and the Hanafi school.
