Ibn Warraq
January 1, 1946
Ibn Warraq is an author renowned for his critique of Islam and his scholarly examination of early Islamic history. His works delve into the language, text, and commentary of the Quran, questioning mainstream conceptions of the period through meticulously researched scholarship. Employing a pseudonym out of concern for personal safety, he draws on a tradition of dissident writers and historical figures who challenged established narratives. His writings, considered both polemical and well-researched by different perspectives, offer readers a provocative engagement with Islamic history and thought.
