3. 7. From Dawn to Dusk: studying the origin of the Islamic fivefold daily liturgy in the Qur’ān

   Nyckelord :Islam; prayer; Qur anic studies; Qur anic exegeses; Christianity; Judaism; Philosophy and Religion;

   Sammanfattning : Despite prayer being one of the most central tenets of Islam, this subject has drawn the attention of surprisingly little scholarship, especially when it comes to studying its origin against pre-Islamic analogues.

To this end and firstly, I critique the physical sense of timbre in favour of two anti-realist senses of timbre. LÄS MER
