Islam: Its History and Theology Prof. William marshner, may 5, 2015 Fact Based Questions: To what does Islamic theology ascribe any cause or catastrophe in Islamic history? What was the extent of the Abassid Caliphate? What was the ethnicity of Salah-ah-Din (Saladin)? Who were the Mu’tazilites? What did they stand for? What is meant by the Islamic proposition that ‘God’s hands are unchained’? What do Islamic theologians mean by ‘Dualism’? What does Abdulaziz ibn Saud (‘Abdulaziz’) hold about Sharia? Did Our Lord reveal everything that we need to know in order to be saved? Who did Muhammad appoint as the first leader for prayer? Does Sharia recognize human rights? Who were the Turkish Janissaries? Discussion Based Questions: How should the Christian consider the success of the Reconquista and the initial successes of the Crusades? What is the theological consequence of the view that the Qu’ran is uncreated? Is God a source of evil? Did God create evil? What is the Metaphysical framework of Science? Why should the Christian be comfortable with scientific inquiry? Is the Mu’tazilite or the anti-Mu’tazilite position more compatible with Christian orthodoxy? Why would the Muslim consider Muhammad ‘the perfect man’? What are the theological implications of this view?
