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.
