Opis

"Readings in the Qur an" aims to meet the needs of non-Muslims who wish to discover the beauty and meaning of this great religious work. The Qur an is recited more constantly than any other Scripture, but in many ways it is a difficult book for the Western reader as its sequences are neither chronological or thematic, and indeed its logic, its meaning, its order, and its times can initially seem perplexing and strange, however, this introductory collection of essays guides the beginner and offers a rationale for this three-sided approach and reflection on the relevance of the Qur an in the contemporary world."
