Over the course of six sections, this rich reference book explores
the various areas of Qur'anic studies: its language, the history of
its documentation, its many disciplines, the methods of
interpretation, its inimitability, and finally, as a work of art.
The themes explored also include the impact of the Qur'an on
Islamic civilisation, as well as the various classical
sub-disciplines of Qur'anic studies, including the study of the
variant readings (qira'at), the reasons for revelation (asbab
al-nuzul), and abrogation (naskh). Unlike some other works, Prof
Zarzour also explores contemporary scholarship on the Qur'an,
notably through a critical evaluation of modern tendencies such as
the claim that the Qur'an contains scientific miracles, and an
evaluation of some of the most recognised modern works of Qur'anic
commentary (tafsir).
