About The Book

al-Iman Fitra is Dr. Umar Faruq Abd Allah's major Arabic-language theological treatise on the doctrine of fitra — the innate, God-given inclination toward belief that the Prophet (peace be upon him) named in his celebrated saying, "Every newborn is born upon the natural disposition." Across 644 carefully argued pages, the author sets the Qur'anic and Sunnic teaching of fitra against the testimony of the world's primitive and civilised cultures, ancient and modern. He draws on biblical scholarship, ancient Indian, Chinese, and Greek philosophy, comparative religion, anthropology, and the modern history of skepticism and atheism, asking whether the natural human disposition itself recognises the One God — and answering, in the framing of the Qur'an, in the affirmative.

The work is at once a study in Islamic aqida, a work in the philosophy of religion, and a sustained engagement with the secular skepticism of modernity. It has been received as a significant contemporary contribution to Sunni theological writing in Arabic, of particular value to students of comparative religion, philosophy of religion, and the intellectual response to modern atheism.

About The Author

Dr. Umar Faruq Abd Allah Wymann-Landgraf (b. 1948 in Columbus, Nebraska) is an American Muslim scholar who embraced Islam in 1970 and went on to study the classical Islamic disciplines in the line of traditional Sunni scholarship — including study with Sayyid Muhammad b. Alawi al-Maliki in Mecca. He directs the Nawawi Foundation in Chicago and has written widely on traditional Sunni theology, Islamic intellectual history, and the encounter between Islamic and Western thought; his work has been particularly influential in shaping contemporary Western Muslim theological discourse.

عن الكتاب

"الإيمان فطرة" دراسة معمَّقة للدكتور عمر الفاروق عبد الله في معنى الفطرة كما وردت في القرآن والسنّة. ينطلق المؤلِّف من حديث «كلُّ مولود يولد على الفطرة»، ثم يقابل التأصيل القرآنيّ والسنّيّ بشهادة الأمم البدائية والمتحضِّرة قديماً وحديثاً، ودراساته في الفلسفة الهنديّة والصينية واليونانية، وتاريخ الشكّ الحديث والإلحاد المعاصر. يَسأل الكتاب في ٦٤٤ صفحة: هل تشهد الفطرة الإنسانية بطبيعتها لوجود الإله الواحد؟ ويُجيب — وفق الإطار القرآني — بنعم. مساهمةٌ معاصرة ذات ثقل في علم الكلام السنّي العربي، تجمع بين العقيدة وفلسفة الدين والردّ على الإلحاد الحديث.

About the author

Umar Faruq Abd Allah: Dr. Umar Faruq Abd Allah Wymann-Landgraf hafidhahullah (b. 1948, Columbus, Nebraska) is an American Muslim scholar of distinction. He embraced Islam in 1970 and subsequently immersed himself in the classical Islamic sciences within the line of traditional Sunni scholarship, including study with Sayyid Muhammad b. Alawi al-Maliki in Makka. He earned his PhD in Arabic and Islamic Studies from the University of Chicago in 1978. As Chair and Scholar-in-Residence at the Nawawi Foundation - a non-profit educational foundation based in Chicago - he has shaped much of the contemporary American Muslim intellectual landscape. His scholarship spans traditional Sunni theology, Islamic intellectual history, the encounter between Islamic and Western thought, and the Qur'anic and prophetic foundations of core Islamic concepts such as fitra. Among his notable works is al-Iman Fitra (644 pages), a deep study of the concept of fitra as presented in the Qur'an and Sunna, set in dialogue with the testimony of ancient and modern civilizations and philosophical traditions. His work has been particularly influential in shaping the theological discourse of Western Muslim communities.
