In various literatures, the phrase ‘Islamic perspective’ has been employed in both singular and plural forms. What does Islamic perspective mean then? Is there only one Islamic perspective on an issue or are there many Islamic perspectives? What is the implication of this dual usage of the phrase for the readers’ understanding of an issue? Since this edited work also employs the term ‘Islamic perspective’ in its title and that its chapters are written with this in mind but by different authors, this chapter attempts to explore the use of this term in contemporary discourses and works with a hope that it will clarify some issues over its usage and subsequently reduce the possible misunderstandings among readers.
