This book presents a new study of one of the major themes of the Qur’an. The theme of Qur’anic pictures of the universe treated here pertains to as yet a little explored facet of Islamic cosmology. Through this particular thematic study of the Qur’an the author has made a significant contribution to the contemporary understanding of the scriptural foundation of Islamic cosmology and the present discourse on epistemology of scientific exegesis (tafsir ‘ilmy) of the Qur’an. The book offers many new insights that will prove particularly helpful to those interested in deepening their understanding of Qur’anic perspectives on cosmology, the natural sciences, and religion and science.
Translation of Qur'ani Ifadat, a collection of Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi's reflections on Qur'anic verses gathered from his talks, books, and magazine articles.
The primary objective of this book is to instil in the readers an interest in the Qur'anic text and to motivate them to reflect on its ayat. It also goes to great lengths in showing how each ayat of the Qur'an is related to the entire discourse of a given Surah.
Herein, the reader will not only learn many valuable points but will also appreciate the shortcomings which prevent reaping full advantage from study of the Holy Book. Many miraculous facets will also come to light which may not have been described in detail perhaps in any other book in English.
In the written Qur’an, known as “mushaf,” the chapters are not arranged in the chronological order of their revelation, so the first and last verses in the mushaf are not the first and last revealed verses, respectively. There are a number of had?ths and historical reports about which verses and chapters were revealed first and last. This book examines the credibility of each report, evaluates the views of scholars, and presents its own conclusions. Focused on the subject of the first and last revelations of the Qur’an, this book is by far the most comprehensive and complete study of this area of the Sciences of the Qur’an.
This book highlights the facts that were not known before the turn of the 20th century and have just started to be understood within the framework of the recently introduced theory of landforms and plate tectonics. It discusses these in the light of the Qur'anic description on mountains. See for yourself how such explicit, precise, and comprehensive scientific statements provide an eloquent testimony to the belief that the Qur'an is the Word of the Creator. Includes many colored illustrations. Although it will be of value to anyone interested in the Qur'an, it is a must read for those studying earth science and geology.
A translation with an introduction and annotation of al-Ghazali’s Kitab Jawahir al-Qur’an
This work focuses on one of the sciences of the Qur'an, the study of the names of its chapters (surahs). It explains the origins of these names and tries to identify the pattern of naming each surahs.
A studyof how the truths of physics, astronomy, and cosmology are in harmony with the verses of the Qur'an. Endorsed by the Arab Union for Astronomy and Space Sciences, Jordan.
Publisher's Description: This small book, part of our new Occasional Paper Series, brings into sharp relief established attitudes of Western academia toward the Qur’an, especially as evidenced in the only extant multi-volume reference work on the Qur’an in English—Brill’s Encyclopaedia of the Quran. The author exposes layers of centuries-old polemical literature against the Qur’an entrenched in putatively “rigorous and academic scholarship”, and underscores the need for Muslims to produce an alternate reference work on the Qur’an.
