【Summary】
Majlis-i Maktūb Munʿaqid dar Khwārazm is a relatively brief but intellectually dense treatise by Abū al-Fatḥ Muḥammad b. Abī al-Qāsim al-Shahrastānī, in which he explores the theological concepts of amr (divine command) and khalq (creation).
Through this framework, al-Shahrastānī critically examines and challenges the doctrines of various theological schools as well as certain philosophical positions concerning the nature of God and His attributes. The treatise reflects his characteristic method of comparative analysis and conceptual precision, well known from his larger works.
The present volume offers a critically edited text of the treatise accompanied by an English translation, making this important document of twelfth-century Islamic intellectual history accessible to a wider scholarly audience.
