What is commenting in Islam?

The articles gathered in the MIDEO 32 incorporate most of the contributions presented at the symposium organized by IDEO in Cairo on the 14th, 15th and 16th of January, 2016, on the theme of “Science of Islam, between repetition and innovation: What does it mean to comment in Islam?” that was concluding the 200 Project.

Commenting has in fact become essential to the point of being considered the mode par excellence of intellectual activity (Saleh).
The articles here allow a confrontation with the sources in order to verify the functional level relevance of the commentaries identified by Wisnovsky, and they contribute to a better knowledge of authors of Arab Muslim patrimony. The volume also incorporates an important article on the theology of religions by Father Rémi Chéno and an article on the theological epistemology of Ibn Ḥazm (d. 456/1064) of Cordoba. The volume presents as well issues of the Marrakesh Declaration of 27 January 2016.

Les articles rassemblés dans le MIDÉO 32 reprennent la plupart des contributions présentées au colloque organisé par l’Idéo les 14, 15 et 16 janvier 2016 au Caire sur le thème « Les sciences de l’islam, entre répétition et innovation : qu’est-ce que commenter en islam ? » qui concluait le Projet des 200.

La question du commentaire est en effet devenue incontournable au point d’être considérée comme le mode par excellence de l’activité intellectuelle (Saleh). Les articles ici rassemblés permettent une confrontation aux sources afin de vérifier la pertinence de la grille des fonctions du commentaire identifiées par Wisnovsky et contribuent à une meilleure connaissance des auteurs du patrimoine arabo-musulman. Le volume intègre aussi un article important de théologie des religions du P. Rémi Chéno, un article sur l’épistémologie théologique d’Ibn Ḥazm (m. 456/1064) de Cordoue et présente enfin les enjeux de la « Déclaration de Marrakech ».
