This book traces the history of the theological position of Rev. Anawati, an expert at the Second Vatican Council on questions relating to Islam, and the response of Dr. al-Baraka, a professor at the prestigious al-Azhar University. The translation and presentation of the texts is a significant contribution to the contemporary history of this dialogue. The author also offers valuable keys to discernment and methodology in order to avoid semantic and theological confusion.
Cet ouvrage retrace l’histoire de la position théologique du Père Anawati, expert au Concile Vatican II sur les questions relatives à l’islam, et sur la réponse que lui a opposé le Dr. al-Baraka, enseignant de la prestigieuse Université d’al-Azhar. La traduction et la présentation des textes est une contribution notoire à l’histoire contemporaine de ce dialogue. L’auteur offre par ailleurs des clefs précieuses de discernement et de méthodologie afin d’éviter les confusions sémantiques et théologiques.
