Hoodbhoy, Pervez (1991), Islam and Science: Religious Orthodoxy and the Battle for Rationality, Zed Books Ltd., London and New Jersey.
A scathing criticism of the project of justification of Qur’an by science, an angry response to an ill-conceived plan which was being orchestrated by the Commission with the help of a small number of mostly old and retired Muslim scientists and an equally small number of Western scientists who had been lured into the plan by offers of attractive financial rewards and an opportunity to rub shoulders with the rulers, mercilessly exposed this profanely executed endeavor. But, it is, in itself, equally flawed because of its own agenda which was to support, reiterate and re-establish the “religious orthodoxy versus foreign sciences” thesis of Ignaz Goldziher discussed in chapter 5. Hoodbhoy finds nothing worthwhile in the Islamic scientific tradition, except “five great ‘herectics’ (al-Kindi, Muhammad ibn Zakariya al-Razi, Ibn Sina, Ibn Rushd and Ibn Khaldun, cf. ch. 10 of his book); he accepts the discredited periodization in which Islamic scientific tradition is said to have withered by the thirteenth century, with its so-called “golden age” being in the eleventh century. In his “Why Didn’t the Scientific Revolution Happen in Islam?” (chapter 11), he reproduces a caricature of the arguments used by Orientalists: the role of Muslim law, autonomous institutions, political factors, especially the 1258 sacking of Baghdad, and, of course, al-Ghazali, who “routed the rationalists” a scathing criticism of the whole project.
