The Tool of Reason: Mantiq (Formal Logic) and Its Integration into Usul al-Fiqh

Formal logic entered Islamic scholarly curricula as a tool for defining terms, testing inferences, and clarifying arguments.

The Intermediate Realm: Barzakh, Soul Continuity, and Eschatological Justice in Islamic Theology

Barzakh names an intermediate barrier or realm associated with the period between death and resurrection. This study reads Qur’anic passages and hadith traditions carefully, compares theological emphases, and distinguishes scriptural claims from speculative descriptions of the unseen. It argues that eschatological belief should deepen moral accountability rather than encourage unsupported certainty about individual fates.
