Defending Muhammad in Modernity: Forum Introduction

A Forum on SherAli Tareen’s Defending Muhammad in Modernity

This forum on SherAli Tareen’s landmark study, Defending Muhammad in Modernity, illuminates several key terms in the study of religion in the modern world: sovereignty, political theology, and the secular (as both a mode of governance and a form of life).

Marginalia is terribly impressive. The intellectual range, depth, and quality of writing are remarkable.

Marginalia is terrific. Its creators and writers have taught us all how to discuss and debate profound humanistic scholarship in a readable and accessible way.
