Reviews
Heidegger is a radical Abrahamic thinker who spoke a Greek language. When the Muslims lost their own thinking apparatus, they did not find better than Heidegger’s secularized Christian concepts to learn about their new self-experience. Heidegger in the Islamicate World is a high-quality conceptual and spiritual experimentation workshop for the encounter between Abraham's descendants but in a post-secular horizon where colonialism can become a metaphysical parody. -- Fethi Meskini, Author of Thinking After Heidegger While much has been written about Heidegger and the East, historians of philosophy have passed over in silence appreciations and interpretations of Heideggerian thought in the Islamicate world. By highlighting the link between Islamic thinkers and the work of Heidegger, this edited volume underscores, for the first time, the importance of examining the legacy of a hermeneutic adventure in the twentieth century for a more complete and critical understanding of the history of modern and contemporary Islamic thought -- Ramin Jahanbegloo, Executive Director of the Mahatma Gandhi Centre for Nonviolence and Peace Studies, Jindal Global University This is an much needed collection. Heidegger’s reception in Islamicate circles broadens the range of examples by which we understand philosophical engagements. This is a rare book, that prepares a path to a truly global philosophy in anticipation of a post-Western future. -- S. Sayyid, Professor of Social Theory and Decolonial Thought, University of Leeds In this pioneering volume, the reader is expertly navigated through the astonishingly multifaceted readings of Heidegger in Arabic, Persian, Turkish, and Urdu. Heideggerian concepts serve Islamic authenticity discourses as well as inspiring critical and innovative reflections on being, transendence, language and art. -- Anke von Kügelgen, Department of Islamic Studies and Modern Oriental Philology, University of Bern Heidegger in the Islamicate world (edited by Kata Moser of Ruhr University Bochum; Urs Gösken of Zurich University; Josh Hayes of Alvernia University)2is a welcome contribution to scholarship because it highlights critically how a “Western” philosophy – here Martin Heidegger’s philosophy – is able to challenge the paradigms of Islamic thought without being conditioned by religious worries and prejudices. * Rivista di Filosofia *
