Oludamini Ogunnaike: Ways of Knowing In Tijani Sufism Abbasi Program in Islamic Studies

    • Religion & Spirituality

Tijani Sufism is one of the most popular and prominent religious/intellectual traditions on the continent. In this talk, I will examine how this tradition answers the questions: "What is knowledge?," "How is it acquired?," and "How is it verified?". Based on these answers, I will compare and contrast Tijani epistemology to certain Western theories of epistemology, both ancient and modern.
