| book description |

This broad-ranging study, the first full-length investigation of conceptions of faith and trust in the Judeo-Arabic tradition, explores a family of related conceptsâ€”faith (imÄn, emunah), conviction (iâ€˜tiqaÌ„d), and trust/reliance (tawakkul/ittikÄl)â€”in Saadya, Baá¸¥ya, Halevi, Maimonides, Abraham Maimonides, and the Egyptian pietist circle of Abraham he-á¸¤asid. The work points to a rich spectrum of conceptions of faith and trustâ€”from the purely cognitive to the experiential and affective. What emerges are themes of faithfulness, loyalty, experiential certainty, and trustworthiness, expressed in devotion to a way of life that embodies these ideals. The virtue of trust expresses steadfast commitment to the truth. This study vividly illustrates the â€œJewish-Arab symbiosis,â€ highlighting the shared spiritual language and rich, intertwined worlds of Islamic and Jewish philosophy, theology, and mysticism.
