Islamic Civilisation Book Club 2021

Wardah Books is hosting a regular book club called The Islamic Civilisation Book Club. The book club aims to promote systematic, serious reading about Islamic Civilisation; and to introduce the scope and depth of Islamic Civilisation.

For participants in the book club, the pace of reading is one book in about 5 weeks. The book club is open to everyone. The book club is not a class, it’s a purposeful conversation amongst readers who are all reading the same book. All books for the book club are available at Wardah Books.

In 2021, the theme of the book club was Islam and Other Civilisations.

The aim was to understand how the breadth of Muslim response in interactions with other civilizations draws from an active application of wasaṭiyyah (balance), specifically with respect to revelation and the ‘aql.
