In this interview I have the the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Javad Hashmi. Dr. Hashmi. Dr. Javad T. Hashmi is a board-certified emergency physician, former Harvard Medical Ethics Fellow, and Ph.D. candidate in Religion at Harvard. Holding BA and MA degrees in Arabic and Islamic Studies (UC Berkeley, Harvard), his scholarship probes Qur’anic ethics of war, jihad, and the sanctity of life, with added interest in South Asian Islamic modernism. He promotes religious literacy, interfaith dialogue, and a human-rights discourse.
In this video we discuss the question of war and peace in the Qur'an. Dr. Hashmi takes us through some of his recent publications where he argues against the notion that Muhammad was merely biding his time during the Meccan period in order to begin the conquests in Medina. This view, termed opportunistic pacifism, is replaced with an emphasis on the apocalyptic view of divine judgement in the Meccan Qur'an. Dr. Hashmi connects this outlook with the idea of YHWH's day in the Hebrew Bible and its later interpretation in the New Testament.
