In this work, Rhaman confronts today's perception of Islamic fundmentalism and proceeds to reassess it. He returns to medieval Islam, considering topics like Islamic politics, law and Sufism in a study of the original nature of fundamentalism.
This authoritative book argues that what is considered today to be Islamic fundamentalism is inconsistent with the true meaning of this faith. Rahman demonstrates that the true roots of Islamic teachings advocate adaptability, creativity, and innovation.
