About The Book: In these Haskell Lectures (1906), MacDonald explores the lived faith of Muslims rather than doctrinal theology. He discusses how Islam shapes daily life, moral attitudes, religious experience, community obligations, ritual practice, and individual piety. MacDonald emphasizes the interplay between external observances (prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, etc.) and inner spiritual disposition. He highlights how religious feeling is rooted in realizing God’s presence, in humility, gratitude, consciousness of sin, and hope of forgiveness. MacDonald also examines variations in expression among cultures, and how Islam adapts to different social, historical, and ethical settings while preserving essential unity. About The Author: Duncan Black MacDonald (1863–1943) was a pioneering American Orientalist and a foundational figure in Arabic and Islamic studies in the U.S. His scholarship bridged Western academia and Islamic thought, combining linguistic mastery with deep theological insight.
