Theology courses numbered 221-229 are reserved for students on the new core curriculum. If this section of the class appears to have very few seats, it is because the rest of the seats in the classroom will be occupied by students on the “old core.” This section provides an introduction to the foundational sources of Islam: its sacred scripture, the Qur’an, and its founder, the Prophet Muhammad. We will study the language, themes, and multiple interpretations of the Qur'an, and its role in Muslim ritual, social, intellectual, spiritual, artistic, and political life. We will examine contemporary interpretations of the Qur’an on questions of pluralism, politics, and gender. We will pay close attention to the Abrahamic historical and theological context of the Qur’an and the Prophet and their relationship with Biblical traditions and how revelation and prophecy have been understood and debated by Muslims, Christians, and Jews.
