This special issue of the American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences on
Ismail al Faruqi is prepared to honor the memory and contribution of Professor
Ismail al Faruqi to the academia, the history of Islamic thought,

Ismail Raji al Faruqi (1921–1986) was a great scholar of Islam in modern
times. His scholarship covered a broad spectrum of Islamic studies: the
