The Qur''an and Its Study: An In-depth Explanation of Islam''s Sacred Scripture

English

By (author): Adnan Muhammad Zarzour Professor Adnan Zarzour

Translated by: Adil Salahi

Over the course of six sections, this rich reference book explores the various areas of Quranic studies:

  1. its language,
  2. the history of its documentation,
  3. its many disciplines,
  4. the methods of interpretation,
  5. its inimitability,
  6. and finally, as a work of art.

The themes explored also include the impact of the Quran on Islamic civilisation, as well as the various classical sub-disciplines of Quranic studies, including the study of the variant readings (qirt), the reasons for revelation (asbb al-nuzl), and abrogation (naskh).

Unlike some other works, Prof Zarzour also explores contemporary scholarship on the Quran, notably through a critical evaluation of modern tendencies such as the claim that the Quran contains scientific miracles, and an evaluation of some of the most recognised modern works of Quranic commentary (tafsir).
