Abstract
The International Symposium on Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, held in Istanbul
from 3-5 October 2010 under the auspices of Istanbul Ilim ve Kültür Vakfi
(www.sempozyum2010.com and www.barlaplatformu.com), coincided with
the fiftieth anniversary of this great Muslim social reformer’s death. Its
theme, “Knowledge, Faith, Morality, and the Future of Humanity,” attracted
academics, scholars, and writers from around the world who sought to
explore and examine The Risale-i Nur’s contributions to human peace, prosperity,
and happiness. The 106 peer-reviewed papers presented were divided
into three separate volumes according to language: Turkish (13 papers),
Arabic (50 papers), and English (43 papers and the keynote address).
