THE FAILURE OF ISLAMIC MODERNISM? - MARTIN FORW...

Although many Muslims have found the modern  secular  westernized world a hostile environment
for their religion  a few intellectuals within their religion have attempted to interpret Islam
along modernist lines. One of the most distinguished Muslim Modernists has been Syed Ameer Ali
(1849-1928)  the first Indian member of the Privy Council. This book examines his modernist
interpretation of Islamic history and ethics. In particular  it examines Ameer Ali's
convictions of Islamic beliefs about prophethood and revelation. It explores whether such an
explanation of how to be a faithful Muslim in the contemporary world is convincing and  if so 
to what group or groups of Muslims. Further  it asks whether many non-Muslims would be
attracted to such an exposition of Islam.
