Abstract

This article strives to chart the intellectual history of Muslims and the trans-civilizational, discursive tradition of Islam spanning fourteen centuries. It chronicles the scholarly projects shaping Islamic thought as they developed in the wake of the Prophet’s (s) death and intensified in the ensuing centuries despite the numerous changes and tumultuous times the Muslim ummah encountered. Together with an accompanying map and visual timeline, it endeavors to empower students of Islam in general and Islamic Studies programs in particular with an appreciation of the breadth and depth of Muslim intellectual history. The article begins by tracing the foundation of early regional centers, the side-by-side formation of disciplines, the development of the various legal schools as well as the many strains of Islamic thought, and how they not only influenced one another but also became absorbed into mainstream Islam, ending with an overview of the impact of modernity on Islamic thought. Through this effort, I hope that students will be able to cultivate a rudimentary understanding of Islamic scholarship in its historical context, make interdisciplinary connections, critically engage with the individual disciplines in their focused study, and gain an overall nuanced reverence for the collective Muslim intellectual legacy across 1400 years along with the diversified scholarly struggles to diligently honor and observe the message received from the Prophet Muhammad (s). The map and timeline accompanying the present survey of Muslim intellectual history are available here.

穆斯林思想史
这篇文章力图描绘出穆斯林的思想史和跨越14个世纪的伊斯兰教的跨文明、话语传统。它记录了塑造伊斯兰思想的学术项目,这些项目在先知死后发展起来,并在随后的几个世纪中得到加强,尽管穆斯林民族遇到了无数的变化和动荡时期。连同附带的地图和可视化的时间轴,它努力使一般的伊斯兰教学生,特别是伊斯兰研究项目的学生,对穆斯林思想史的广度和深度有所了解。文章首先追溯了早期区域中心的基础,学科的并行形成,各种法律学派的发展以及伊斯兰思想的许多流派,以及它们如何相互影响并被主流伊斯兰教所吸收,最后概述了现代性对伊斯兰思想的影响。通过这一努力,我希望学生们能够在历史背景下培养对伊斯兰学术的基本理解,建立跨学科的联系,在他们专注的研究中批判性地参与到各个学科中,并获得对1400年来穆斯林集体知识遗产的全面细致的崇敬,以及各种各样的学术斗争,以勤奋地尊重和遵守先知穆罕默德(s)所传达的信息。
