Islamic Theologies of Disasters

This issue of the MIDEO, dedicated to “Islamic Theologies of Disasters”, reminds us that Muslim societies have been regularly confronted with various disasters, both natural and human, throughout history and have found strategies to explain their causes and effects. The articles in the thematic dossier, edited by Haoues Seniguer (Lyon) and Abdessamad Belhaj (Louvain), present examples of theological discourses over the centuries that dealt with the calamities of their time.
