English summary: Islam today, with approximately 1.8 billion adherents, is a lively and fast-growing worldwide religious community. This third volume of the three-part presentation of Islam in the series ‘Religions of the World’ traces the religion’s historical development during the last 200 years and examines the issues of ‘Islam and Modernity’ and ‘Islam in the Postcolonial Age’. These questions are linked to the current situation in Islamic regions and the Muslim diaspora, exploring the way in which Islam deals with the challenges of modernity; the search for the ‘right path’ (halal/haram); intercultural influences; the situation of non-Islamic minorities in the world of Islam; jihad, terror and martyrdom; and much more. An overview of topics in modern Islamic theology and philosophy, as well as interfaith dialogue, rounds off this lively account of the youngest of the world’s three monotheistic religions. German description: Der Islam ist heute mit ca. 1,8 Milliarden Glaubigen eine lebendige schnell wachsende weltweite Glaubensgemeinschaft. Der dritte Band der dreiteiligen Darstellung des Islam in der Reihe “Die Religionen der Menschheit” zeichnet die historische Entwicklung der letzten 200 Jahre nach und nimmt die Fragen “Islam und Moderne” und “Islam in der postkolonialen Zeit” in den Blick. Diese werden mit der gegenwartigen Situation in islamisch gepragten Regionen und der muslimischen Diaspora verknupft: der Umgang des Islam mit den Herausforderungen der Moderne; die Suche nach dem “rechten Weg” (halal/haram); interkulturelle Einflusse; die Situation nichtislamischer Minderheiten in der Welt des Islam; Djihad, Terror und Martyrertum; u.v.m. Ein Uberblick uber Themen der modernen islamischen Theologie und Philosophie sowie des Interreligiosen Dialogs komplettieren diese lebendige Darstellung der jungsten der drei abrahamitischen Weltreligionen.
