Description and Table of Contents
Description
This study contains a critical edition of Ibn al-Jawzi's Kitab Akhbar as-Sifat (KAS) along with an annotated translation and introduction. KAS is primarily a critique of anthropomorphic conceptions of God, directed against fellow Hanbalis and traditionalists generally. It sheds important new light on the intellectual fault-lines within medieval Hanbalism, and reveals the extent to which kalam had penetrated the school by the 12th century.
