Saeed (Arab and Islamic studies, U. of Melbourne, Australia) summarizes elements of the many perspectives on the primary Islamic scripture, which are informed not only by the text itself, but also knowledge about the historical period in was received and the life of the Prophet Muhammad. Among his topics are revelation, major themes and text types, the Qur'an in daily life, Western scholarship, translation, ethico-legal teachings, and exegesis. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

There is much more to the Qur'an than the selective quotations favoured by Islamic fundamentalists. This book provides a student-friendly guide to the many ways in which the Qur'an can be read.

Designed for both Muslims and Western non-Muslim students, it examines the Qur'an in Western scholarship as well as giving an overview of the rich interpretive traditions from the time of the Prophet Muhammad to the present day.

This guide is a concise introduction to all aspects of the Qur'an: history, understanding and interpretation, providing:

  • coverage of both pre-modern and modern periods
  • plenty of examples to illustrate key points and aid student understanding
  • summaries, timelines and a glossary.

Arvustused

'Saeed's Introduction is an excellent work for students and general readers who are seeking a well-written and sympathetic introduction to the Qur'an that does not avoid the critical questions that feature in contemporary scholarship. The book provides a comprehensive view of both what the Qur'an says and how Muslims have interacted with the text during history. The full power of the Qur'anic text is conveyed along with the diversity of reactions to it in both olden and modern times. Overall Saeed has provided us with a valuable classroom tool that is both accessible and informative.' - Andrew Rippin, University of Victoria, author of Muslims: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices 'It is ideal as a text for serious academic work on the Qur'an. Summing up: Highly recommended.' - Choice
