Titre de la thèse

“Reformist Muslim Approaches to the Polemics of the Qur’an against Other Religions”

Presentation

"My dissertation addresses the question of how the polemical elements of the Qur’an against other religions can be interpreted differently for non-polemical interactions among different religious communities in the modern world. By “polemical elements” I mean those qur’anic verses that describe other religions negatively, which include various types of quranic criticism of Jews and Christians" (Mun’im Sirry)
