10:00AM - Great Courses
Platform: Zoom
This Wednesday (and next) there will be only a single lecture. As always, we will devote time to discussion following the lecture.
In Lecture 11, Sharia and Jihad: The Qur’an as Legal Text, Professor Oliver takes up the untranslated words 'sharia' and 'jihad,' which might best be understood as “searching for God’s will” and the “universal struggle for justice,” rather than the simplistic, and thus fundamentally inaccurate, concepts of judicial law and holy war. We will consider the complex meaning of each term, and how it is further developed through a rich history of fatwa, or legal opinion.
Each lecture is 25-30 minutes and we will take time for discussion and comments among the group after each lecture.
Questions about the lectures can be directed to Saul Rapkin .
