DESCRIPTION

Everything Glorifies God
Examines the concept of praise (tasbīḥ) in Islam, encompassing its human and nonhuman expressions.
This book offers an original perspective on animal studies, Islam and the extensions of religion, engaging with ideas and narratives in which nonhuman creatures (both animate and inanimate) are portrayed as the ideal worshippers of God. Moreover, it argues that this piety of animals and the wider worshipping cosmos not only represents an ideal form of worship, but also serves as a model for more fallible human piety.
