While Christian approaches to the problem of evil have been much discussed, the issue of theodicy in Islam is relatively neglected. This book discusses possible solutions to theodicy and the problem of evil through the early philosophy and theology of Islam as well as through a semantic analysis of evil in the QurÄn. Reflecting on Said Nursis magnum opus, the Risale-i Nur Collection (Epistles of Light), Yesilhark Ozkan puts Nursis theodicy into discourse with so called secular theodicy or anthropodicy. Her study offers a fascinating new perspective on the problem of evil for scholars of comparative religion, philosophy of religion, and Islamic thought.
