The doctrines of Sunni theology -- The demise of 'ilm al-kalam -- Between theology and creed -- The guide through the storm -- The Taliban and the Maturidite school -- The promise of Ash'arite semiotics -- Conclusion: the revival of kalam?.

The history of Sunni theology is little known, but the impact of itsdemise has profoundly shaped modern Islam. This book explores the correlation between anti-theological thought and the rise of Islamism in the twentieth century by examining Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and the leadership of Umar al-Tilmisani (d. 1986). The sociopolitical implicationsof anti-theological creedalism and its postcolonial intermarriage withthe modern nation-state are also analyzed. Ultimately, this study seeks to know whether a revival of Sunni theology, as a rational discourse on religion, can dilute the absolutism of increasingly pervasive Islamist thought in the contemporary Muslim world.
