{"product_id":"tantawi-jawhari-and-the-quran","title":"Tantawi Jawhari and the Qur'an","description":"\u003cp\u003eShaykh Ṭanṭāwī Jawharī was an Egyptian exegete known for having produced a scientific interpretation of the Qurʾān. A pioneering scholar in terms of familiarising the people of his time with many previously neglected matters regarding Islam and science, his publications shocked the Cairo educational system and other Muslim places of learning in the early twentieth century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book examines the intersection between Ṭanṭāwī Jawharī and Egyptian history and culture, and demonstrates that his approach to science in the Qurʾān was intimately connected to his social concerns. Divided into three parts, part one contains three chapters which each introduce different aspects of Ṭanṭāwī Jawharī himself. The second part explores the main aspects of his \u003ci\u003etafsīr\u003c\/i\u003e, discussing his approach to science and the Qurʾān, and how he presented Europeans in his \u003ci\u003etafsīr\u003c\/i\u003e, and then addressing the impact of his \u003ci\u003etafsīr\u003c\/i\u003e on wider Muslim and non-Muslim society. The third section draws attention to the themes from all 114 \u003ci\u003esūra\u003c\/i\u003es of the Qurʾān that are discussed within his commentary. It then analyses the current status of his views and the post-Jawharism perspective on science and the Qurʾān, both today and in an imaginary future, in 2154.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProviding new English translations of Ṭanṭāwī Jawharī’s work, the book delivers a comprehensive assessment of this unique figure, and emphasises the distinctive nature of his reading of the Qurʾān. The book will be a valuable resource for anyone studying modern Egypt, the Qurʾān, Islam and Science, and scientific interpretation and inimitability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54259592102232,"sku":"9780367281052","price":61.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367281052.jpg?v=1769633138","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/tantawi-jawhari-and-the-quran","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
