نقد التعددیة الدینیة عند جون هیک
ABOUT THE BOOK
Naqd al-Ta'addudiyyah al-Diniyyah 'inda John Hick (نقد التعددية الدينية عند جون هيك) by Paul A. Krysak is an Arabic translation of a critical philosophical study examining John Hick's theory of religious pluralism.
John Hick's approach to religious pluralism argues, broadly, that the major religious traditions can represent different human responses to or understandings of an ultimate transcendent reality. This work examines that philosophical position and presents arguments challenging the coherence of treating conflicting religious truth claims as simultaneously valid.
The publisher explains that the original author approaches the critique from a Christian perspective. The Arabic edition nevertheless presents the work as valuable to Arabic readers interested in contemporary philosophy of religion, while explicitly noting that the Muslim translators/editors do not share the author's claim that Christianity alone possesses religious truth.
The book therefore provides an interesting contribution to discussions surrounding religious pluralism, religious truth, epistemology and contemporary philosophy of religion, particularly for readers studying modern debates concerning John Hick.
A useful specialist resource for students of Aqidah, philosophy, comparative religion and contemporary Islamic thought.
