Death, Resurrection, and Human Destiny Christian and Muslim Perspectives

Death, Resurrection, and Human Destiny: Christian and Muslim Perspectives is a rich collection of essays, scriptural analysis, and personal reflections featuring leading Christian and Muslim scholars who explore the meaning of death, resurrection, and human destiny within their religious traditions. Drawn from the 2012 Building Bridges seminar in London and Canterbury, chapters address Biblical and Qur'anic references to resurrection, the notion of "dying well" or "the good death," illuminating religious literature from the medieval period, and contemporary funeral practices in Christianity and Islam.
