Islamic Studies

Islamic Studies

The Islamic Studies Collection includes research on Islam through comparisons between Islam and other religions, and between religious and non-religious factors and disciplines. It also contains scholarship devoted to the classical Islamic sciences, including traditions of learning such as Qur’anic exegesis, hermeneutics, law, theology, linguistic thought, Sufism, the Hadith and studies on the medieval genres of Arabic biography and history including critically edited editions of important classical manuscripts.

This Collection is also component of the larger Religions of a Single God collection (in preparation) that aggregates all our material in Christianity, Judaism and Biblical Studies along with the Islamic Studies Collection.
