The Qur'an is the sacramental foundation of prayer in Islam. Its
inspirational power is perpetually renewed through being recited
and meditated upon by Muslims on a daily basis throughout their
lives. This succinct monograph provides a unique contemporary
insight into the spiritual, intellectual and moral dynamics set in
motion by the short Qur'anic chapters recited in their prayers by
Muslims of all traditions, but which are particularly recommended
within Shi'i Islam. Dr Shah-Kazemi engages creatively with the
chapters of the Qur'an, including the 'Opening' (al-Fatiha)
chapter, basing his own philosophical reflections on the teachings
of Imam 'Ali. He focuses in particular on the relationship between
the moral and the mystical aspects of the texts. The result is a
stimulating philosophical meditation probing the depths of meaning
comprised within the verses of a Revelation by which the spiritual
quest of Muslims has constantly been inspired, nourished and
fulfilled.
