This edited volume offers an incisive exploration of the intersection between Islam and evolutionary theory – a topic that remains a focal point of vigorous academic debate and inquiry. Covering a broad spectrum of approaches, this work delves into contemporary scholarship, Islamic intellectual history, and scriptural interpretations, ensuring a rich, multifaceted discussion. It notably amplifies underrepresented perspectives, including Shīʿī viewpoints and contributions from female scholars, while broadening the conversation beyond traditional Arab-centric narratives to incorporate insights from regions such as Indonesia, Iran, and France. Structured into sections that scrutinize scriptures, individual scholars, and societal views, the book meticulously examines the complex relationships between Islamic thought and evolutionary science. An indispensable resource for scholars at the nexus of science and religion and for specialists in Islamic studies, this volume ignites fresh insights and promotes a more inclusive academic dialogue.

David Solomon Jalajel is a researcher at King Saud University’s Prince Sultan Research Institute. He holds a PhD in Islamic and Arabic Studies from the University of the Western Cape.

Jalajel’s research focuses on the interface between traditional Islamic frameworks and contemporary issues, particularly in the sciences.
