Description
In this unique look at a key figure in the ';Islamic enlightenment', Samer Akkach examines the life and works of ';Abd al-Ghani al-Nabulusi (1641-1731).
Often characterized solely as a Sufi saint, his thought and teachings were of a much wider remit, and symptomatic of a growing rationalism among Islamic scholars during his lifetime.
Through a fresh reading of his large body of mostly unpublished works, Akkach argues that ';Abd al-Ghani helped to herald the beginning of modernity in the Arab world.
