Detailed item info
Synopsis
Intended to provide an overview of the Islamic tradition, Renard's introductory text examines the breadth, depth, and varied richness of this faith system--one of the world's largest. Renard takes into account not only the foundations of the religion, but also its social structure, its aesthetic culture, and the pedagogy and personal experiences that thrive within it.

Publisher's Note
Seven Doors to Islam reveals the religious faith and spiritual tradition of the world's one billion Muslims. Spanning Islamic civilization from Morocco to Indonesia, Seven Doors demonstrates how Muslims have used the literary and visual arts in all their richness and diversity to communicate religious values. Unlike most studies of Islam, which see spirituality as the concern of a minority of mystical seekers, Seven Doors demonstrates spirituality's central role in every aspect of the Islamic religious tradition.
This book focuses on how Muslims have used the literary and visual arts to communicate religious values. Each of the seven chapters opens a "door" that leads progressively closer to the very heart of Islam, from the foundational revelation in the Quran to the transcendent experience of the Sufi mystics.

Industry reviews
"A comprehensive tour of the exuberant landscape of Muslim religious life, past and present...Renard's kaleidoscopic survey sounds the death toll to the longstanding misconception that Islam is a dry and mechanistic religion devoid of spirituality. This is the best introductory book on Islam currently available."
