Saadia's Polemic Against Hiwi Al-Balkhi is a book written by Israel Davidson in 1915. It is a translation of a medieval Arabic text that presents a debate between two scholars, Saadia Gaon and Hiwi Al-Balkhi. The book provides a detailed analysis of Saadia's arguments against Hiwi's theological views, which were considered heretical at the time. Saadia was a prominent Jewish scholar who lived in the 10th century and is known for his contributions to Jewish philosophy and biblical commentary. Hiwi Al-Balkhi was a Muslim philosopher who lived in the 9th century and was known for his unorthodox views on Islamic theology. The book provides valuable insights into the intellectual debates of the medieval period and the religious and philosophical differences between Judaism and Islam. It is a must-read for scholars and students of Jewish and Islamic studies, as well as anyone interested in the history of religious thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
