Abstract

ABSTRACT Medieval Muslim scholars wrote substantial apologetic and polemical treatises to present and defend the truth of their religion and to invite people of different faiths to Islam. These texts belong to the so-called radd (‘refutation’) literature. It is still interesting today in so far as many radd authors avoided rhetorical polemics and sought serious rational arguments that provide deep insights in the dogmatic differences and peculiarities of various religions. An outstanding, because strongly argumentational, example is Kitāb al-radd ʿalā al-Naṣārā (‘Book of refutation of the Christians’) by Ṣāliḥ ibn al-Ḥusayn al-Jaʿfarī (d. 668/1270). This article introduces al-Jaʿfarī’s life and work, outlines methodological premises for a critical analysis of radd arguments, gives an overview of al-Jaʿfarī’s most important arguments and an example of the analysis of such arguments, and indicates what the examination of these old texts can contribute to today’s interreligious discourses.

Ṣāliḥ ibn al-Ḥusayn al- ja - fari ' s Kitāb al-radd al- alā al-Naṣārā中的辩白论点

中世纪的穆斯林学者撰写了大量的护教和辩论性论文，以呈现和捍卫他们宗教的真理，并邀请不同信仰的人加入伊斯兰教。这些文本属于所谓的“反驳”文学。到今天为止，它仍然很有趣，因为许多学者避免了修辞性的争论，而是寻求严肃的理性论证，为各种宗教的教义差异和特点提供深刻的见解。一个突出的例子是Ṣāliḥ ibn al-Ḥusayn al- ja - faryi(公元668/1270年)的Kitāb al-radd al- alā al-Naṣārā(“基督徒的反驳书”)。这篇文章介绍了al-Ja - fari的生活和工作，概述了对radd论点进行批判性分析的方法论前提，概述了al-Ja - fari最重要的论点，并给出了对这些论点进行分析的一个例子，并指出对这些旧文本的研究对今天的宗教间话语有何贡献。
