Sinopsis

Aniconic, with no sacred, representational projections ofdivinity through paintings, plastic arts, etc.,áas in certain Western and Eastern arts, Islamic art,árooted in Tawhid, the inimitable concept of GodâÇÖs unity that entails His sublime attributes called AsmÄüʾu HusnÄü, is a manifestation of beauty, refinement, harmony, moderation, equilibrium and authenticity. In other words, Islamic art is a civilizational reflection of Ihsan, a comprehensive term that combines all the above mentioned qualities. Muslim artists and architects, throughout the centuries, have been aware of the ProphetâÇÖs saying, 'God, certainly, has prescribed Ihsan in everything. And God, according to another Hadith, is beautiful. And He loves the beauty. It is this story of beauty, refinement, harmony, etc.,áthat the present volume, Islamic Art and Architecture: An Introduction, Edited by Dr Sabrina Lei, one of the insightful contemporary European Muslim philosophers, presents beforeáthe readers interested in the history, the basic principles of Islamic art and architecture. Apart from Dr SabrinaâÇÖsáintroductory articleáon the philosophy of Islamic art and architecture, this volume,TawasulâÇÖsáfirst segment in a three-volume series on Islamic art and architecture, contains the authenticástudies of some of the preeminent experts in the field likeáSir Thomas Arnold, ááStanley Lane Poole and Martin S. Briggs.
