Praise for Ali S. Harfouch’s Against the World: Towards an Islamic Liberation Philosophy
“Taking seriously Islamic cosmology, Ali S. Harfouch’s book is a tour de force in decolonial thought. It is a major decolonial intervention critical of Eurocentrism, Liberalism, Coloniality, Secularism and Colonized Muslim perspectives. The book brings epistemic categories from Islamic perspective to produce not only a radical critique of modernity but utopian horizons for the future of humanity. Against the World is among the best theologies of liberation ever produced! The book is centered in Islam, while simultaneously open to conversations with decolonial thinkers from other traditions and geographies. The critique to fetishim or “shirk” as the critical method of the prophetic tradition,” is mastered here to unveil many systemic curtains that blind the eyes of the Ummah. If you want to know what is decolonial liberation away from modern eurocentric frameworks and idols, this is the book to read. A Must Read!”
