Human Nature in Islam
Human Nature in Islam explores what such luminaries as Ibn-Abd-al-Barr, the greatest scholar of Spain, ar-Raghib al-Isfahani and Ibn Taymiyyah have said about this pivotal term from the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Yasien Mohamed tackles the work of writers closer to our own day. Ali Shariati and Sayyid Qutb, the dualism of whose views the author exposes with great courtesy and honesty. He contrasts fitrah with other views of human nature such as those of Freud, and B.F. Skinner and opens up the exciting possibility of Muslim thinkers throwing an entirely new light on the working of the human soul. --

Virtues of Greatness in the Arabic Tradition
There are few ideals of character as distinctive and divisive as the ancient virtue of 'greatness of soul'. A larger-than-life virtue embodying nothing less than a vision of human greatness, it has often been seen as a relic of the Homeric world and its honour-loving heroes. In philosophy, it found its most celebrated expression in Aristotle's ethics, and it has lived on in the minds of philosophers and theologians in different forms ever since.

A virtue of Greek warriors and their democratic epigones — what happened when this splendid ...
