Description: Reconfiguring Islamic Tradition : Reform, Rationality, and Modernity, Hardcover by Haj, Samira, ISBN 0804752508, ISBN-13 9780804752503, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Haj (history, City U. of New York-Graduate Center) analyzes the work of two significant Muslim reformers that many consider to have inspired the two major strands of contemporary Islamic political thought. One is Muhammed ibn Abdul Wahhab (1703-87), whose work inspires groups like al-Qa'ida; the second is Egyptian reformer Muhammad 'Abduh (1). Western scholarship labels the first fundamentalist and traditional, and the second liberal and modern, but he looks at both of their ideas in terms of their own political goals, not that of Western powers.
