This work challenges established narratives about the outcome of the Great Debate and broadens understanding of indigenous South Asian Christian theology. This well-presented argument for the theological impact of Lahiz meets a critical need in both historical and theological scholarship by recovering the voice of an indigenous South Asian Christian convert and challenges dominant, Western-centric narratives of nineteenth-century Muslim-Christian encounters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Langham Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786412782\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.74d","brand":"Ibn Hikmat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52259518873781,"sku":"9781786412782","price":34.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_4d3d0223-f6fd-4adf-a577-ef859f9fb18f.jpg?v=1771341934","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-great-debate-a-nineteenth-century-defense-of-christianity-by-a-renowned-muslim-convert-9781786412782","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
