The Quran and the Secular Mind: A Philosophy of Islam by Dr Shabbir Akhtar argues that Muslims must engage with contemporary secular reason to establish a philosophy of Islam. He proposes a new approach to Quranic exegesis, one that embraces reason and critical thinking rather than simply extracting dogma from the text. Dr Akhtar critiques traditional Islamic interpretations of the Quran, asserting that Islam's rigid adherence to its historical context is hindering its relevance in the modern world. He examines the challenges posed by secular humanism and its critiques of religious belief, highlighting the need for Muslims to address these concerns in a way that is both faithful to their religious tenets and responsive to the realities of the modern world. The book ultimately seeks to bridge the divide between faith and reason, advocating for a form of Islam that is intellectually rigorous and morally relevant in a secular age.
