Islamic Theological Themes: A Primary Source Reader Tekijä: John Renard
http://bactra.org/weblog/algae-2021-07.html
Easy-to-read basic introduction to Catholic teaching on theological and social matters of general concern. For classroom and individual use. Includes bibliography and discussion questions.
"Renard's observations on Islam are at once respectful and insightful. He helps the reader to confront biases against Islam and its religious and cultural influence. The gift of Renard's many years of living with Muslims in Arab settings is his ability to relate what seems to be a foreign experience to the everyday life of Americans who are, for the most part, Christians often alarmed by the "political Islam" of the Middle East."--BOOK JACKET.
Talels of Sufis. None during Umayyad. Several: Abu Bakr's time. Some from Abbasid onward.
