Qur'anic Truth and the Meaning of 'Dhimma' by Abdal-Hakim Murad

Kalam Research & Media has just published a new essay by Sheikh Abdal Hakim Murad - 'QUR’ANIC TRUTH AND THE MEANING OF ‘DHIMMA’ [with a foreword by Dr. Umar F. Abd-Allah]

This short essay is a concise and rich theological statement exploring the dynamic possibilities of an authentically Islamic universality for our age.... Whereas modern globalism tends to annihilate cultural diversity, authentic Islamic pluralism, as exemplified in the theological implications of dhimma, offers to each community the opportunity to develop its own sacred space and express its own uniqueness.
