Description

Explore the deep connection between scripture and political rhetoric in this scholarly work from Routledge Studies in the Quran. This book examines how the meaning of the Quran is shaped within the world through the analysis of Muslim political rhetoric. By looking at Arabic documents attributed to the Abbasid Caliph al-Ma'mun (r. 813-833), the text investigates a period when classical Islamic political thought and literary culture reached maturity. Using classical Arabic-Islamic rhetorical theory, the author investigates how Quranic referencing works as tropological exegesis. This process allows for the reinterpretation of Quranic verses through the lens of subjective experience and socio-historical context. This academic resource provides a detailed look at how religious texts are used to navigate political landscapes and shape moral reform during a significant era of Islamic history. It is an essential read for those interested in Middle Eastern history, religious studies, and the development of classical Islamic thought.
