  • av Ilyass Amharar
    1 368,-

    The Q¿¿¿ Ab¿ Bakr Ibn al-¿Arab¿ was an A¿¿arite theologian, a Maliki jurist and an Andalusian traditionalist of the fifth-sixth / eleventh-twelfth century. His influence in the Muslim West is undeniable: he is one of the most important figures in the history of ä¿arism in al-Andalus, and introduced kal¿m books that quickly became references of local teaching, such as the Ir¿¿d of al-¿uwayn¿. He also introduced treatises of u¿¿l al-fiqh such as the Mustäf¿ and the Man¿¿l of al-¿az¿l¿. Ibn al-¿Arab¿ is also the most famous disciple of the latter and one of the first to have transmitted his thought to Andalusian scholars, then to the rest of the Muslim West. Through a critical, introduced, translated and commented edition of his sum of legal theory entitled Nukat al-Mä¿¿l f¿ ¿ilm u¿¿l, this present work shows how the legal thought of the Q¿¿¿ is articulated between language and theology.
