Riodغa's sources of knowledge of the West : with special reference to Christianity -- Riodغa Arab Christians : attitudes towards Syrian Christians and the Egyptian Coptic community -- Al-Manغar versus evangelism : Rashغid Riodغa's perceptions of the social and theological aspects of missions -- False allegations or proofs? : Riodغa's formative polemics on Christianity -- In pursuit of a 'true' gospel : Riodغa's Arabic edition of the Gospel of Barnabas -- The art of polemics : Tawfiq oSidqغi's contributions to al-Manغar and Riodغa's use of them -- Recapitulation of ideas : Christianity as reflected in Riodغa's Fatwغas.

No previous full-scale study has been undertaken so far to study the polemical writings of the Muslim reformist Muohammad Rashغid Riodغa )1865-1935( and his associates in his well-known journal al-Manغar )The Lighthouse(. The book focuses on the dynamics of Muslim understanding of Christianity during the late 19th and the early 20th century in the light of al-Manغar's sources of knowledge, and its answers to the social, political and theological aspects of missionary movements in the Muslim World of Riodغa's age. The basis of the analysis encompasses the voluminous publications by Riodغa and other Manغarists in his journal. Besides, it makes use of newly-discovered materials, including Riodغa's private papers, and some other remaining personal archives of some of his associates.
