The views of Imam al-Māturīdī (d. 333/944) the founder of one of the theological schools of Islamic thought continue to live among Muslims for centuries. Māturīdism which emerged as a continuation of the views of Abū Ḥanīfa (d. 150/767) the founder of Ḥanafism the first legal school found a response in the lands where Ḥanafism spread.
Known for emphasizing reason and wisdom Imam al-Māturīdī advocated a non-exclusive understanding of faith in Islamic thought. In his philosophy of nature he emphasized the wisdom of God. He made a fairly rational defense of religion against gnostic beliefs while placing justice at the center of religion. The views of Imam al-Māturīdī which has been forgotten in the last centuries have begun to be remembered again against radical Salafist interpretations.
When the readers read Imam al-Māturīdī's views they will better understand why Radical Salafists and ISIS harshly criticize Māturīdism. Therefore the authors have not neglected to include a special chapter in the book on this issue.
