Salvation and Hell in Classical Islamic Thought uses classical Islamic
sources to trace the development of Islamic eschatology during the
formative centuries of Islamic intellectual history. Marco Demichelis
draws on classical Islamic scholars, including Ibn Sina, al-Ghazali,
Ibn Taymiyya, and Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, to bring together concepts
from Islamic philosophy, theology and mysticism – including
proto-Sufism – to examine the interplay of these concepts between
these traditions. The doctrines of salvation from Hell are examined in
depth, in particular the theory of the annihilation of Hell, which
proposes the idea that there will be a time when Hell will be empty
and no longer inhabited. This is the first book to examine Islamic
eschatology in the classical period, and adds to the growing
scholarship on Islamic views on salvation and the eternity of Hell. It
will be essential reading for scholars of Islamic intellectual
history, theology, and comparative religion.
