In The Higher Objectives of Islamic Theology, Mohammed Gamal Abdelnour introduces a new field of inquiry to the Islamic tradition by basing it on a scheme of core values (Truth, Justice, Beauty), instead of a scheme of hudud (penalties), arguing that the tradition's current overemphasis on law (justice) has relegated both theology (truth) and Sufism (beauty) to the periphery of the tradition.
