Metafizyka muzułmańska — kryzys, reformacja, transformacja, reintegralizacja?
Islamic Metaphysics: Crisis, Reformation, Transformation, Reintegralization?

Summary/Abstract: The paper is an introduction to the collection of articles, published in the current issue of “Studia Philosophica Wratislaviensia”, on both the subject mat- ter conceived (as broadly as possible) as Islamic metaphysics and on the very stud- ies of this research area (the current state of knowledge, conjunctures, tendencies, prospects etc.). It attempts to provide presentation of discussion of topics and prob- lems, which can be included in this area, but offers also first drafts of tentative and “work-in-progress definitions” of how Islamic metaphysics can be understood with its orientation on the most recent contexts, inspirations and applications, internal structures and dynamics relating to its interpretations and evolutions, as well as its original, historical versions. One of the inspirations for the project of studying the Islamic metaphysics presented here is rooted in Jasser Auda’s ambitious works on Islamic law, not narrowed to a technical, specialized domain of research about foun- dations (fundamentals), sources, jurisprudence (usul al-fiqh) or specific legislation re- lated to the Shari’a. The paper sketches a general orientation map introducing basic concepts and methodological strategies used by Auda with the prospects of their further application to the study (and potential rethinking) of Islamic metaphysics.
