Merger proposal[edit]

I know this article doesn't have a lot of research. But I see these two topics as related. As it stands now, Islam and modernity focuses on history, and has a brief editorial section. This page actually mentions some philosophers. One focuses on the history of ideas, this one focuses on the ideas themselves. 67.71.1.93 03:47, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the name of the article due its content is about Islamic philosophy and philosophers in the 20th century. Therefor I remove the merge tag.--Seyyed(t-c) 12:20, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removed essay-like content[edit]

I'm not sure if this is related to the {{backwardscopy}} tag above, but there were two paragraphs in the lede that just read like an essay, presenting very little context and using first-person tense, among other inappropriate things. This content is reproduced below in case anyone wants to work with it. --BDD (talk) 17:29, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removed paragraphs

Aziz Abbassi’s English translation found in the following pages was made from the French Introduction à la critique de la raison Arabe, translated from Arabic to French by Ahmed Mahfoud and Marc Geoffroy, published by La Découverte in 1994. The occasion of this French publication was an effort to provide an introduction to al-Jabri’s thought prior to publication of a translation of his three-volume Naqdd al-‘aql al-‘Arabi referred to earlier. The essays contained were selected from al-Jabri’s earlier work, especially his collection Nahnu wa-al-Tuath. The author helped and advised in the selection of the texts and revised the French edition, thus making it authoritative. And, although the present text was translated from the French, it was compared with the Arabic original.

During the past few years, al-Jabri has published essays and shorter monographs on issues ranging from democracy and human rights in the Arab World to further elaboration and discussions of his main theses in his previously published work. Because al-Jabri’s work is a direct and critical intervention in problems and issues that are central to modern and contemporary Arab thought, and because his interpretations and readings of modern and classical Arab thought in more than one instance challenge that thought, I will not only summarize some of his ideas but also discuss briefly the main trends that have dominated intellectual discussions in the Arab world during the past few decades

new structure[edit]

@Sa.vakilian:. I think that the below structure would be a good one:

-Iran

-neo sadraeian

-allame tabatabaei

-javadi Amoli.e.t.c

-neo Avicenna

-Mesbah Yazdi

-hasan Mosatafavi e.t.c

-M. M. Sharif

-Khalifa Abdul Hakim

-C. A. Qadir

-Intisar-ul-Haq

-Abdul Khaliq

-M. Saeed Sheikh

-india

-Malaysia

--Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas

-leabonan

-Iraq

-japan

izutsu.etc

-Islamic philosophy is Africa

-Tunisia

mostafa hadad

-morocco

-Algeria etc

-Islamic philosophy in Europe

france

-yaya Bonu

-Corbin school

England

Russia

-Islamic philosophy in America . . .

I have to add two points. the first point is that this division just belong to those who are concerned with Islamic philosophy in any way whether they be muslim or non-muslim. the second point is about those who are muslim but there is no dealing with Islamic philosophy. they interested in other philosophy such as epistemology or philosophy of mind etc.--m,sharaf (talk) 18:53, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nadwi[edit]

What I meant here is that the text is unsuitable for a philosophical entry. Also, I do not think Nadwi can be considered a philosopher. Mosesheron (talk) 06:02, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

'Contemporary', From to which time period?[edit]

Template:Islamic studies sidebar mentions only two options Early & Modern philosophy. Modern philosophy redirects here. Early Islamic philosophy seem to define philosophical development beginning early 9th century CE to late 12th century CE.


I checked couple of other wp article titles beginning with word 'Contemporary' but those seem to define 'From to which time period'. Where as this article seem to miss that. 13 century to 21 century 800 years together for Modern / Contemporary philosophy article is it not too long ? or we are missing any philosophy time period articles in the template?

The advent of Al-Ghazali and his ignorance lead to the extirpation of Islamic philosophy (outside of private works Islamic clerics) for nearly a millennium. It only revived due to interaction with the way. The lacuna should not be viewed as an error, it was the decision of Al-Ghazali to misuse his brilliance in order to point out serious issues with the philosophy of the time, and rather than advance it and propose a new philosophy, he used the authority gained therein to close off all debate and only permit philosophy by clerics, in private. For a few centuries this helped stabilize the Muslim world (which had fallen into chaos with the Abassid collapse to a rump state and endless Shia and khajarite rebellion). But it also least to ossification of debate and the inevitable stagnation of Islamic thought. And the zombies of Al Ghazali, the 'ilmless ulema, still eagerly use terror to squash all Muslim intellect and reason under the boot of rote repetition and emulation of dogma.138.84.243.137 (talk) 20:39, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
