      Iqbal's voice resonates with passion and serenity, rooted in Quranic Revelation while remaining open to diverse perspectives. He transcends rigid identities, addressing humanity beyond tribal and caste divisions. Despite his significant contributions being overshadowed by the political and religious constraints in Pakistan and the rise of Hindu chauvinism in India, his thoughts remain vital. Souleymane Bachir Diagne revives Iqbal's message, allowing contemporary audiences—Muslims, Westerners, and Indians—to engage with his profound insights once more.

      This is a remarkable and interesting book. Open to Reason is tremendously valuable on two levels: first, as an account of the place of philosophy in Muslim history; and, second, as a philosophical proposal of some depth and substance that could orient Muslims and others in understanding Islam today.

      The book delves into four key philosophical topics relevant to contemporary African thought. It explores ontology in relation to African religions and aesthetics, the concept of time and its implications for development, and the reconstruction of intellectual history through orality and written traditions, particularly highlighting Timbuktu's significance. Additionally, it revisits political philosophy, specifically the notion of "African socialisms" and the evolution of the "African Charter of Human and Peoples' Rights." These discussions are essential for understanding African languages and translation.
