Yayın A metaphysical inquiry into Islamic theism(Routledge, 2023) Doko, Enis; Turner, Jamie B.; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Felsefe BölümüThe effervescent and dynamic history of Islamic theology in its formative years bears witness to organic, philosophical, intra-religious, and politically charged developments over the question of God’s nature. Following the sudden and explosive expansion of Islamic civilization in the first 200 years since its advent, Muslims quickly developed a religious and political unity which saw them govern over large sways of disparate religious communities, with Muslims being a technical religious minority political ruling class. This rather distinct socio-political context in which Muslims found themselves gave rise to a whole host of developments in both religious and secular disciplines. To be sure, the religious diversity within the Umayyad and Abbasid empires did not impose or necessarily act as the primary influence upon these developments, but it and the combination of organic dialogue from within, followed by a touch here and there of politico-religious dogmatism (i.e., the mi?na of the Mu’tazila), led to a theological conversation which oversaw the flowering of distinct Islamic theological schools, and the advent of Muslim peripatetic philosophies...Yayın An epistemic defeater for Islamic belief? A reply to Baldwin and McNabb(European Journal for Philosophy of Religion, 2022) Turner, Jamie B.This article seeks to outline how a Muslim believer can deflect a defeater for Islamic belief put forward by Erik Baldwin and Tyler McNabb. In doing so, it aims to reject the suggestion that an Islamic religious epistemology is somehow antithetical to a model of Reformed epistemology (RE) which is not fully compatible with Plantingian. Taken together with previous work on Islam and RE, the article not only aims to provide reason to think that Baldwin and McNabb’s proposed epistemic defeater for Islamic belief isn’t problematic, it also seeks to show how the concerns raised by Baldwin and McNabb over a Plantingian model of RE in Islamic milieu, are no longer tenable.Yayın An Islamic account of reformed epistemology(University of Hawai'i Press, 2021) Turner, Jamie B.Reformed Epistemology (RE) is roughly “the thesis that religious belief can be rational without arguments.”1 To a large extent RE is centered upon a rejection of the evidentialist objection to theism. Let the evidentialist objection be the thesis that one can only hold proposition p, namely that God exists, justifiably if and only if one supplies evidence E in support of p. Assuming one does not have E, it follows that one would be unjustified in upholding p. Advocates of RE, against to this objection, hold that belief in God can be justified without recourse to propositional evidence. Alvin Plantinga, RE’s prime proponent, has argued on the basis of what he coins the AquinasCalvin (or A/C) model that theistic belief can be properly basic with respect to warrant...Yayın [Book Review]: "Debating Christian Religious Epistemology: An Introduction to Five Views on the Knowledge of God"(Springer, 2021) Turner, Jamie B.Debating Christian Religious Epistemology is an accessible and concise comparative volume on contemporary religious epistemology. Although focused specifcally on the Christian tradition, it provides a neat blueprint for paralleled discussions of religious epistemology in other traditions. Through its fve primary chapters—followed by a response from authors holding opposing positions, and a fnal reply from the original author(s)—it succeeds in applying some of the most relevant and challenging normative epistemological frameworks to classical theological tradition by discussing fve distinct epistemological positions that the Christian may seek to adopt...Yayın Ibn Taymiyya on theistic signs and knowledge of God(Cambridge University Press, 2021) Turner, Jamie B.This article aims to draw on the 'Qur'anic Rationalism' of Taqi al-Din Ibn Taymiyya (1263-1328) in elucidating an Islamic epistemology of theistic natural signs, in the lens of contemporary philosophy of religion. In articulating what Ibn Taymiyya coins 'God's method of proof through signs (istidlaluhu tacala bi'l-ayat)', it seeks aid in particular from the work of C. Stephen Evans and other contemporary philosophers of religion, in an attempt to understand the relevance and force of this alternative to natural theology within the Islamic tradition. In doing so, it aims to respond to existing criticisms of Ibn Taymiyya's perspective in the literature, and to consider the implications of a Taymiyyan reading of theistic natural signs, on the epistemic function of Qur'anic ayat as theistic evidence. Copyright © The Author(s), 2021. Published by Cambridge University Press.Yayın Islamic religious epistemology(Cambridge University Press, 2023) Turner, Jamie B.; Doko, Enis; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Felsefe BölümüThis chapter aims to lay out a map of the diverse epistemological perspectiveswithin the Islamic theological tradition, in the conceptual framework of con-temporary analytic philosophy of religion. In order achieve that goal, it aims toconsider epistemological views in light of their historic context, while at thesame time seeking to “translate” those broadly medieval perspectives intocontemporary philosophical language. In doing so, the chapter offers a succinctoverview of the main epistemic trends within the Islamic theological traditionconcerning religious epistemology. The chapter is divided into two main sectionsdesignated for discussions of differing accounts found in distinct trends of thetradition, namely the Rationalist and Traditionalist trends. The discussion con-cerning the Rationalist trend focuses on the philosophical-theologians of thedominant Mu’tazilite, Ash’arite, and Maturidite schools. The section on IslamicTraditionalism focuses on the Atharite scripturalism of Ibn Qud?ma, and inparticular the thought of Ibn Taymiyya. In order to map out these historicpositions in light of contemporary religious epistemology, reference is made toa threefold typology of current views in the literature: (1) theistic evidentialism,(2) reformed epistemology, and (3) fideism.1 As such, the remainder of thechapter will attempt to outline the different approaches toward religious episte-mology in the Islamic theological tradition with this threefold typology in mind.Yayın The epistemology of religious belief in classical Islamic theology(İbn Haldun Üniversitesi, Lisansüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü, 2021) Turner, Jamie B.; Köroğlu, BurhanThis work aims to consider the major trends of religious epistemology within the classical theological traditions of Islam. In doing so, it aims to “translate” these classic medieval perspectives into the idioms, language and conceptual framework of contemporary religious epistemology. Of prime concern, are those traditions within Islam that closely overlap with broadly theistic evidentialist perspectives, and those which broadly overlap with reformed epistemological perspectives. In considering these different epistemological trends of the Islamic theological tradition i.e., the Mu’tazilite, Ash’arite, Maturidite and Hanbalite schools, the thesis also aims to attempt to fit these perspectives within the context of contemporary normative epistemological theories. In navigating through the differences between these schools and traditions, the thesis aims at constructing a theological and epistemological synthesis which brings all of these perspectives together into one coherent view.
