This book examines the approach of wasatiyyah in the discourse of Mahmud Shaltut's scholarship. It identifies ways to improve the conditions of the Ummah due to the lack of understanding of the concept of wasatiyyah, the challenges of religious extremism, and the emerging issues in the contemporary Muslim world. It explores the concepts of wasatiyyah and its principles within the Islamic framework. It also delineates the core characteristics and essentials of wasatiyyah that have been adopted as guidelines to evaluate this research study. Subsequently, this study investigates Shaltut's life, intellectual career, and his influence on society and the Muslim world. It concludes with a critical evaluation of Shaltut's approach to the idea of wasatiyyah, identifying his methodological approach to wasatiyyah in legal issues, 'Aqidah, and contemporary ideologies, as well as public affairs issues discussed in his scholarly works.
