Witness location: “Islam and Humanity,” p. 42.
What Shahrur Says in the Available Witness
The witness attributed to Muhammad Shahrur, Islam and Humanity states: «يفرق بين العقيدة القتالية الفردية للدفاع عن القيم الإنسانية». Within the limits of this wording, this establishes an association between the individual combat creed and the defense of human values.
Atlas Explanation
This page records this as a distinction concerning the individual combat creed, not as a comprehensive definition of fighting or a complete account of its forms.
Limited Inference
The wording may be understood as preventing discussion of fighting from being reduced to a single form, but this is a limited synthetic reading, since the witness alone does not identify the other side of the distinction.
Open Question and Documentation Limit
The available evidence does not contain a text that mentions “the collective combat creed” or connects it to protecting the homeland and sovereignty. These two attributions should therefore be suspended until an explicit passage is found in the book.
For reading in the broader context: Jihad, Fighting, and Critique of Violence, and Islam precedes the particularity of the Muhammadan message historically and conceptually.
