Abstract

ABSTRACT

Sociological studies of Islam and science in the West have developed in the past two decades. This response is positioned in the light of one such study (https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/ptr/projects/science-british-muslim-religious-leadership.aspx). It argues that Malik’s work is part of emerging transatlantic networks of learning and authority in Islam and science discourses. It suggests that Muslim leadership is now shifting in favour of informed engagement with science/religion topics, and that Malik’s book both exemplifies this shift, but also addresses an urgent need for scholarship that brings Islamic theological principles into dialogue with modern scientific topics.

Shoaib Malik的《伊斯兰教与进化》:英国穆斯林领导与科学发展的社会学反思

西方关于伊斯兰教和科学的社会学研究是近二十年来发展起来的。这一回应是基于这样一项研究(https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/ptr/projects/science-british-muslim-religious-leadership.aspx)。它认为马利克的工作是新兴的跨大西洋伊斯兰教和科学话语学习和权威网络的一部分。它表明，穆斯林的领导地位现在正在转向对科学/宗教话题的知情参与，马利克的书不仅体现了这种转变，而且还指出了对学术的迫切需求，这种学术需要将伊斯兰神学原则与现代科学话题进行对话。

期刊介绍： Membership of The Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences (CTNS) includes a subscription to Theology and Science . To become a member, please click here to view the current options. The primary editorial goal of Theology and Science is to publish critically reviewed articles that promote the creative mutual interaction between the natural sciences and theology. While the journal assumes the integrity of each domain, its primary aim is to explore this interaction in terms of the implications of the natural sciences for constructive research in philosophical and systematic theology, the philosophical and theological elements within and underlying theoretical research in the natural sciences, and the relations and interactions between theological and scientific methodologies. The secondary editorial goal is to monitor and critically assess debates and controversies arising in the broader field of science and religion. Thus, Theology and Science will investigate, analyze, and report on issues as they arise with the intention of prompting further academic discussion of them.This editorial policy is formulated with the guiding confidence that a serious dialogue between science and theology will lead to a variety of new and progressive research programs, and that these in turn will yield new insights, deeper understanding, and new knowledge at the frontiers of science and religion.
