A work of major significance in a relatively virgin field--- Muslim contribution to Comparative Religion. The book brings to light a great deal regarding the Muslim attitude(s) towards other religions. It also brings into sharp relief the serious and painstaking efforts of Muslim scholars to systematically study the religious traditions of others, the significance of Ibn Hazm as a pioneering figure in comparative study of religions, and his lasting impact on the development of this discipline. What could be a better tribute to the greatness of Ibn Hazm as a Comparative Religionist than the fact that the critique of Christianity up until some seven centuries after him virtually remained confined to the points which he had raised.
