Our Philosophy

This is a rare book, an exposition of traditional Islamic philosophy written by a religious scholar who is also versed in modern philosophy. The late Allama Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr managed to combine in this volume a profound synthesis of the principal philosophical beliefs of his tradition with a radical and far-reaching critique of modern ideologies and philosophies, and in particular, the secular assumptions lying behind them.

This is highly recommended for all those who are interested in how the ideological underpinnings of the modern West are assessed and dismantled, with logic and precision, from the viewpoint of the Islamic intellectual tradition.
