Idolatry – a Muslim and Hindu Perspectives
We continue the conversation on idolatry, started in the previous issue of Wisdom. Based on the reflections on the subject, by Jewish thinkers, featured in Idolatry: A Contemporary Jewish Conversation, we convened at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion a conversation with Christian, Muslim and Hindu scholars, raising the question of what significance the category of idolatry has for these thinkers in their respective religions. Participants were asked to review the Idolatry book and to reflect on its relevance for a contemporary understanding of idolatry in their tradition. In this issue of Wisdom we offer a Muslim Perspective and a Hindu perspective.
