Risale Roundtable is a discussion group at the University of Melbourne focussed on the thought and writings of the renowned Islamic scholar and theologian Bediuzzaman Said Nursi. Each episode, we read and then discuss a brief section of Bediuzzaman’s celebrated Risale-i Nur.

Topics include: arguments for the existence and unity of Allah, proofs of the tenets of faith, Divine Name theology, purposes in the creation of humankind and the universe, and related matters.
