“This article provides the translation of the fourth segment or section (fasl) from the chapter entitled "The Chapter on Ishmael and Isaac" (Bab al-Qawl fi Isma’il wa-Ishaq) from Part Three of the Kitab al-Islah (The Book of Correction) by Abu Hatim al-Razi (d. ca. 332 A.H./933-4 C.E.), a Neoplatonist-influenced Ismaili thinker from the 4th c. A.H./10th c. C.E.
This study is the 16th in a series constituting the English translation of the entire text of al-Islah. The segment translated in this study is interrupted by a long lacuna in the text and divided into two portions. Reflecting this division, this translation consists of two subsections as follows: the first subsection, which constitutes the present article, dealing with a portion of the text before the lacuna; and the second subsection, which constitutes the next article, dealing with a portion after it.” (Shin Nomoto)
