RECOGNITIONS

“In this well-researched yet extremely readable volume, Shaykh Dr. Zufiqar Ali Shah has done a tremendous job of connecting the dots and showing how key doctrines and notions that emanated in Muslim Lands migrated from Arabic Sources to Latin treatises. After reading this work, the reader will be able to prove that had it not been for Islam’s unique contributions, the European Reformation, Renaissance, and Enlightenment projects would not have occurred as they did.”

Sh. Yasir Qadhi (Dean Islamic Seminary of America)

“Shaykh Zulfiqar has produced perhaps the most comprehensive and deep analysis of the Islamic influence in the English Enlightenment ever produced. Never before, to my knowledge, has the cross-fertilization of Western and Islamic ideas been so encyclopedically documented as it is here. In reading Islam and the English Enlightenment, you will never see the relationship between Islam and the West the same way again.”

Robert F. Shedinger (Luther College)
