Exploring the Qur'an: Context and Impact by Muhammad Abdel Haleem

Exploring the Qur'an: Context and Impact by Muhammad Abdel Haleem

Abdel Haleem produced the Oxford English translation of the Qur'an, and this book is his argument that most misreadings — by critics and by Muslims — come from taking verses out of the context the text itself supplies.

He works through the internal relationships between passages, the way a theme is developed across a sura, the specific occasions of revelation, and the linguistic features that translation flattens. There are extended treatments of the verses on war, on women, and on tolerance, each read against the surrounding material rather than in isolation.

A scholarly but accessible study from the Professor of Islamic Studies at SOAS.
