Between Words and Faith: English Literature and Islamic Thought explores the dynamic relationship between literary expression and Islamic intellectual tradition through the lens of English literature. The book examines how themes commonly found in English literary works—such as morality, identity, suffering, justice, spirituality, and the human quest for meaning—can be critically engaged with Islamic ethical and philosophical perspectives. Through selected literary texts, authors, and critical approaches, this book demonstrates how narrative, metaphor, and symbolism function as vehicles for moral reflection and spiritual inquiry. It highlights points of convergence between English literary traditions and Islamic thought, while also addressing tensions and differences that enrich scholarly dialogue. By situating literature within broader cultural and spiritual frameworks, the book challenges purely secular interpretations and offers alternative readings rooted in faith-informed ethics. Designed for students, scholars, and general readers interested in literature, religion, and cultural studies, this book contributes to interdisciplinary discourse by showing how literature can serve as a space for ethical contemplation, spiritual engagement, and cross-cultural understanding in an increasingly pluralistic world.
