Saeed;

The baggage of connotations and concepts associated with 'liberalism' is, 
perhaps, already Eurocentric. I guess that we need to find another 
term—could be the Islamic concept of 'wasati'yah' or moderation—that would 
originate from an Islamic perspective.

dear list members

please suggest any books that contribute towards the liberalization of
islam without becoming eurocentric.

thanks
saeed
