Islamicisation of Knowledge and English Literary Studies: In The Age of Islamophobia And Westernophobia

This is a book I co-edited with Assoc. Prof. Dr Aimilia Ramli and is used as a reference to our English Literature courses as part of our comparative study on East and West’s perspectives on humanities and beyond.

Islamisation of Knowledge is a term we use at IIUM as an alternative on how we read and interpret knowledge especially secular ones. It is not out to convert anyone but an alternative way of reading texts. In this book, contributors write on concept of man both from the Western and Islamic perspectives. If the West is afraid of Islam, Muslims too look at western literature with suspicion but this book is kind to Kipling, Shakespeare and other writers in American and British Literature.

Reviews

"Brings in a sense of realization,"
“I like this book because it brings in a sense of realization, in which Muslim teachers should equip themselves with Islamic knowledge in order to ensure that the students would acquire the Truth in knowledge”

“This article directly points out the main problem of the perspective of people towards Qur’an, and it should be concerned. Since Qur’an itself is the magic, whatever people read, it will benefit them.”

“It provides the space to relook and reconsider common and shared grounds between ‘us’ the Muslims and ‘them’ the non-Muslims”
