Description

Post 9/11, sales of translations of the Quran have greatly increased. Students and general readers alike are increasingly interested in the sacred writings of Islam. But the Quran can often make difficult reading. It lacks continuous narrative, and different types of material dealing with different topics are often found in the same chapter. Also, readers often attempt to read the book from start to finish and without any knowledge of the life and experiences of both Muhammad and the community of Islam. Introductions to the Quran attempt to make interpretation of these complex scriptures easier by discussing context, history and different interpretations, and presenting selective textual examples. Bennetts new introduction takes a fresh approach to studying the Quran. By reordering parts of the Qur'an, placing its chapters and verses into a continuous narrative, the author creates a framework that untangles and elucidates its seemingly unconnected content. Through this new approach the reader will come to understand various aspects of the Qurans interpretation, from Muhammads life, to Muslim conduct and prayer, to legal considerations.
