Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this essay, I scrutinize the interpretation of miracles advanced by Ayatollah Motahhari (1920-1979), the well-known Shi'a scholar; and Mehdi Golshani (1939-), a physicist and philosopher of science. The essay begins with a presentation of their viewpoints on the nature of miracles in the light of the broader philosophical discourse on the nature of miracles. This is followed by a comparative analysis of their viewpoints with a consideration of relevant Qur'anic passages and their philosophical relevance. Finally, it concludes with a discussion of the challenges inherent to their interpretations.

Recension (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Ever since the UK-based think tank the Runnymede Trust published the report Islamophobia: A Challenge for us All in 1997, the phenomenon and concept of Islamophobia has been widely discussed and debated by scholars and journalists alike. There are supporters of the term as well as stern critics. One of the most active scholars in these discussions has been Chris Allen, at the University of Birmingham, UK. Soon after the atrocities of 9/11, Allen co-authored the Summary Report on Islamophobia in the EU after 11 September 2001 with Jorgen S. Nielsen (University of Copenhagen), and since then he has published a number of articles and book contributions on the subject. In 2006 he defended his PhD thesis entitled Islamophobia: Contested Concept in the Public Space. His most recent book, simply entitled Islamophobia, without any subtitle, must be comprehended as a summing up of more than ten years of research on the subject.
