Abdulkarim Soroush is known primarily for his epistemological/hermeneutical theory, the “Contraction and Expansion of Religious Knowledge,” and its application to Islamic political theory and religious pluralism. While his Reason, Freedom and Democracy in Islam applies that theory to plurality and the historicity of understanding and interpretation of religion, this book captures some of his original theories about religion itself. The Expansion of Prophetic Experience treats the historicity of the Prophet Muhammad’s revelatory experience, including human and contextual influences on the genesis of the sacred Text. It presents substantial aspects of Soroush’s Neo-Rationalist hermeneutical project for an Islamic reformed theology and ethics, systematically leading Islamic reformation beyond conventional projects of piecemeal adjustments to the Shariʿah or selective re-interpretations of the Qurʾān.
War can be woven into the social fabric of a country. Threats to the national identity of Yemen were not born yesterday, nor was it born when the war began in 2015. This is a story whose depths go all the way back to the middle of the 20th century and the diverse sectarian and regional actors within Yemen at that time. Efforts made to uncover the motives of this conflict’s development and motivations included exclusive interviews with the representatives of all Yemeni active parties. By approaching each perspective, this book develops an approach to see where the real roots of the conflict lie, and to explore the possibility that a common ground could be found to restore peace and stability to Yemen.
