Ahmad Sukkar has recently completed the Imam Bukhari Visiting Research Fellowship at the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies with a project about the intellectual history of Islam, focusing on the relationship between Islamic philosophy and mysticism. He holds a PhD from Birkbeck College, University of London. He is currently preparing his doctoral thesis for publication as a monograph on architectural humanities, along with another monograph on human reality. In collaboration with Professor Samer Akkach (University of Adelaide), he is working towards publishing a critical edition of early modern Arabic text on human reality upon which his doctorate was based.
