This book is a fascinating exploration of how God speaks to humanity and how Muslims engage with Divine discourse. Produced by the International Foundation for Muslim Theology (IFMT), this multi-disciplinary volume brings together Muslim scholars from diverse backgrounds to examine revelation, prophethood, and the role of angels as mediators of Divine self-disclosure. More than an abstract theological discussion, this book is the first in a planned series aimed at reinvigorating 'God-talk' among Muslims-both academics and laypeople-by grounding theological inquiry in the lived reality of faith. With a focus on Islam's six principles of belief, the IFMT's God-talk project addresses the challenges of secularization and the marginalization of theology in both academia and daily life. Divine Revelation and Communication marks a vital first step in reviving Muslim theology as a meaningful, dynamic discourse that speaks to the spiritual and existential concerns of modern believers. About the International Foundation for Muslim Theology IFMT promotes excellence in the study and teaching of Muslim theology - both speculative and pastoral - by facilitating and shaping Muslim theological thought, conversation and community. The IFMT aims to identify and discuss important themes, questions and dialogues which call for theological engagement, and to facilitate access to, and foster the study and understanding of, authentic Muslim theology in a way that is relevant to the issues of the day, and in a manner reflective of the timeless central message of Islam, which is the knowledge, worship and love of the Creator. To this end, the IFMT seeks actively to encourage and foster scholarship in all areas of speculative and pastoral Muslim theology, and to organise workshops, public lectures and training courses on Muslim theology for all interested parties.
