Is Islam Ready For Reform?: Arif Mohammad Khan In Conversation With Sanjay Dixit |

Описание: In this very interesting conversation, Shri Arif Mohammad Khan and Shri Sanjay Dixit discuss and debate on the desirability and possibility of reforms within Islam. The historical context of falasafa, and ishtehad in the Abbasid Empire, and the influence of Al Ghazali and Ibn Taiymiyyah in killing ishtehad, and finishing off the falasafa school (the Tahqiqis), leading to the current situation are also touched upon. The features of Hanafi Islam (Taqlid), and the general supremacism and intolerance exhibited towards other faiths by all strains of Islam, whether Ahl-e-Hadis (Wahhabi), Barelvi or Deobandi are discussed.They look at the incompatibility of Time Concepts and Logic Concepts of Islam and Hinduism, and points of reconciliation.

Former Union Minister Arif Mohammad Khan engages in a profound philosophical dialogue with Sanjay Dixit on the nature of religion, personal faith, and the possibility of reform in Islam. Drawing from both Islamic and Hindu traditions, Khan challenges conventional thinking about organized religion, shares insights on India's secular tradition, and offers a unique perspective on the divisive issue of Article 370 in Kashmir.In this wide-ranging #SangamDialogues conversation, Khan explores the concept of Taqlid (blind following of tradition), the historical significance of the Mutazili movement, and argues that religion should be a personal matter rather than a community affair. His views on the distinction between scripture and law provide fresh insight into religious reform.
