Summary

Dan Diner: Sealed Time: About the Stagnation in the Islamic World

"The author's breadth of knowledge, ability for clear and detailed interpretation, and stylistic freedom, no doubt place this work among contemporary classics in this field." - Anson Rabinach, Princeton University "A very controversial but also refreshing attempt to find answers to the big questions." - Michael Cook, Princeton University "Sealed Time offers a comprehensive interpretation of the problems of the Middle East, but also of the world as a whole. In an attempt to explain a strange historical phenomenon: why are changes in the Arab world so slow, he comes to the conclusion that there has even been a certain standstill? Diner brilliantly combines sources and literature and with his marked writing talent gives intelligent answers." - Rémi Brague, author of The Law of God There is an interesting difference between the original German edition of Dan Diner's book and the English edition, which was published a few years later. One gets the impression that Dan Diner saw that there were too hastily derived positions in his radical secularist re-ploughing of areas that are sacred and precious to traditional Muslims. We believe that, precisely for these reasons, the English edition is particularly different in the sixth chapter, in which Dan Diner talks about a group of "pro-Islamic Jews", actually colossally significant European and world scientists who, at least in some parts of their lives, favorably studied Islam. We are talking about Ignaz Goldziher, Leopold Weiss, Abraham Geiger (the famous German rabbi who warned Europe: "Stop talking about Muhammad as a charlatan!"), Paul Kraus, Claude Lévi-Strauss, etc. etc. Each of these men individually had sections in their lives where they respected the ways in which Islam "insists on man's need for divine enlightenment". All of us, including me and Dan Diner, should think seriously about these attitudes of the mentioned Jewish ulema today. Dear God, grant that in the future the Holy will serve us as an enlightenment, and not only as a mere consolation in the face of the threat of wars and bombs of various kinds. Prof. dr. Enes Karić, Faculty of Islamic Sciences, Sarajevo (excerpt from a critical review)
