Author: Muhammad Kamal

Published: ICAS Press

Review: In a unique parallel analysis, Muhammad Kamal delves into the most controversial subjects of Islamic and Western existential philosophy. He explores the philosophical 'turn', ontological difference, becoming, and nothingness in the ontology of Mulla Sadra and Martin Heidegger. He shows how they both held 'being' as the sole reality and opposed Plato's metaphysics as an established philosophical tradition which led to -- in Heidegger's words -- the 'oblivion of Being'. A thoughtful exposition of the essential compatibility of two philosophers hailing from different faiths, eras, and civilisations.
