Udstigere, akrobatik og træningsprogrammer
Artiklen diskuterer udvalgte temaer fra Peter Sloterdijks bog fra 2009, Du musst dein Leben ändern. Artiklens primære fokus er Sloterdijks insisteren på askese i betydningen ‘træning’ som et afgørende kultur- og religionshistorisk fænomen. Særligt fokuserer artiklen på det originale, om end fremmedgørende, sprogbrug, hvormed Sloterdijk præsenterer sine iagttagelser, og den indledningsvist mystificerende virkning, det har på læseren, men også på d…
The Concept of Muhājirūn – and Its Potential Significance for the Piety of the Seventh-Century Qurʾānic Movement
This article examines the Qurʾānic references to al-muhājirūn as an expression of a world renouncing current in the early Qurʾānic movement. Throughout the Qurʾān the muhājirūn are idealized for their willingness to leave their homes, wealth, and families behind in order to emigrate in the path of God. Traditionally, these emigrants have been interpreted through the lens of later Muslim exegesis as referring to the early believers who accompanied…
The Study of Islamic Origins
The study of Islam’s origins from a rigorous historical and social science perspective is still wanting. At the same time, a renewed attention is being paid to the very plausible pre-canonical redactional and editorial stages of the Qur'an, a book whose core many contemporary scholars agree to be formed by various independent writings in which encrypted passages from the OT Pseudepigrapha, the NT Apocrypha, and other ancient writings of Jewish, C…

Spatial Expressions of Ascetic Tendencies in the Qurʾan
In this article, I propose viewing the early Qurʾanic movement as an expression of strong ascetic tendencies. More specifically, I suggest seeing aspects of Qurʾanic rhetorics as offering a specifically spatial expression to broader ascetic tendencies that characterized late antiquity as a whole, and which may be labeled “axial,” insofar as they can be traced back to the middle of the first millennium B.C.E. , i.e., to the period coined by Karl J…
Koranen som træningsprogram
The article is a case study of a single narrative in the Qur’an’s sura 18. In this article, I explore and discuss the ethical dimensions of the Qur’anic world view. The article takes its point of departure in an outline of the pre-dominant eschatological strand in the Qur’an and different Qur’anic perceptions about reward and punishment. Then, I discuss the moral implications of the idea of divinely sanctioned deeds and actions as well as the exi…
