* The first outline of a contemporary European approach to Islamic theology With this book, Mouhanad Khorchide introduces a contemporary approach to Islamic theology. He demonstrates how Islam can make the ground-breaking step towards a theology centred around a merciful God - a step achieved from within and not imposed from the outside. A real sensation - not only from an academic point of view! Mouhanad Khorchide: 'With my book, I aim to outline a theological approach centred around mercy and present it as an alternative to the theological approach of obedience and fear which is so widespread in the Islamic world - in a straightforward way, also accessible to non-experts. For me, Islam is a message of mercy ... The divine character trait God uses most frequently in the Qur'an to describe Himself is mercy ... It is astounding that this God, the All-Merciful, is so thoroughly neglected in Islamic theology and popular belief!'
