Advanced Theology
This module explores the central themes of Muslim theological doctrine, including the arguments for the existence of God, debates over predestination and free will, theodicy, Prophethood, Imamology and eschatology. Students will primarily engage with ʿAllāma Ḥillī commentary Kashf al-Murād fī Sharḥ Tajrīd al-Iʿtiqād. The Shi’i position is contrasted with opinions of other Muslim theological schools in order to gain an appreciation of the diversity of thought within Muslim theology.
