How have Muslim scholars, mystics, and philosophers preserved this radical vision of divine transcendence while still speaking meaningfully about the Divine?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis study traces the sophisticated intellectual strategies developed across Islamic tradition to address this paradox. Drawing systematically from Qur'an and hadith, classical theology (kalām), philosophy (falsafa), and Sufi mysticism, the work reveals recurring patterns that define Islamic discourse about God-the dialectic of affirmation and negation, the embrace of paradox, and the cultivation of reverent restraint. These approaches preserve divine incomparability (tanzīh) without abandoning the human capacity for knowledge and devotion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrounded in primary sources yet engaging contemporary questions about religious language and transcendence, this book offers scholars, students, and thoughtful readers a comprehensive framework for understanding how Islamic thought navigates the challenge of expressing the inexpressible. It illuminates both historical debates and enduring questions about the nature of divine otherness and the limits of human understanding\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hakim Ibn Adam\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1999065654\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781999065652\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Three Roses Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/02\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Hakim Ibn Adam","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48743021838591,"sku":"9781999065652","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/naught-is-like-unto-him-hakim-ibn-adam-9781999065652","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
