Islamic Liberalism: A Theory of Impossibility Based on the Lockean Tradition

By Halil İbrahim Canbegi

Canbegi critiques Islamic liberalism by comparing its philosophical and theological foundations to those of Lockean liberalism, arguing that Islam lacks the necessary depth to develop a coherent liberalism. He concludes that Islamic liberalism is merely a superficial amalgamation of Islamic and liberal ideas rather than a genuine synthesis.
