An Introduction to Islamic Futures

An Introduction to Islamic Futures excavates this tradition by reading the fundamental sources of Islam - the Qur'an, the Sunnah, and Hadith - from a futures perspective; and examining the futures thoughts and works of such eminent classical scholars as al-Farabi, al-Juwajni, Ayn al-Qudat Hamadani, al-Ghazali, ibn Tufayl, ibn Rushd, al-Maqrizi, al-Asadi, and ibn Khaldun. Ziaudddin Sardar and Mirza Sarajkić define the concept of 'Islamic futures', delineate its conceptual boundaries, and show its vital importance for navigating our tumultuous postnormal times and shaping viable, sustainable, and dynamic Muslim futures.
