| Résumé: | Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- 1 A Scholarly Life in Defense of Islam -- 2 A Handbook for Polemics -- 3 Al-Qarāfī’s Reply to the Letter to a Muslim Friend -- 4 Apologia Pro Religione Islamica -- 5 Christianity and the Innovation of A Wretched God -- 6 The Prophet Foretold -- Conclusion: The Prospects of Christian-Muslim Theological Dialogue -- Appendix A: Al-Qarāfī’s Literary Production -- Appendix B: The Arguments from The Letter to a Muslim Friend -- Appendix C: The Corruption of Early Christianity -- Appendix D: Biblical Predictions -- Bibliography -- Biblical References -- Qurʾānic References -- General Index. In Muslim-Christian Polemics across the Mediterranean Diego R. Sarrió Cucarella provides an exposition and analysis of Shihāb al-Dīn al-Qarāfī’s (d. 684/1285) Splendid Replies to Insolent Questions (al-Ajwiba al-fākhira ‘an al-as’ila al-fājira). Written in response to an apology for Christianity by the Melkite Bishop of Sidon, Paul of Antioch, the Splendid Replies is among the most extensive and most important medieval Muslim refutations of Christianity, and the primary significance of this study is to provide detailed access to its argumentation and intellectual context for the first time in a western language. Moreover, the Introduction and Conclusion creatively situate the work within the challenges of modern-day Christian-Muslim dialogue |
