(left to right) english introduction. english translation & arabic text on facing pages. index. religion. islam. theology. philosophy. ~ "This handy volume is a humble and modest effort at making a beginner's study of the Quran a cheering, even an absorbing and profitable experience. The translation is strictly faithful in meaning to the text though it spells out, where it is inescapable, the inherent implications which would be obvious to one familiar with the language of the original and the context of the events referred to, but would escape those who do not possess that advantage. Even the Arabic idiom has been retained except where adherence to it would make the meaning elusive and difficult to discover. An attempt has been made to so arrange the paragraphs as to preserve the underlying continuity of the context. The Introduction is designed to serve as a key to the study of the Quran and should itself be carefully studied. By his study of the Introduction the reader will acquire some familiarity with the style, diction, the method of persuasion and the manner of reasoning of the Quran. He will find this helpful when he enters upon a study of the Quran itself.". Seller Inventory # 9302102
