Book Synopsis A Concordance of the Qur'an by : Hanna E. Kassis
Download or read book A Concordance of the Qur'an written by Hanna E. Kassis and published by Berkeley : University of California Press. This book was released on 1983-12-28 with total page 1496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword This Concordance of the Qur'an in English satisfies a paramount need of those—and there are millions of them—who have no command of the Arabic language and yet desire to understand the Qur'an. The benefit derivable from English translations of the Sacred Book is, in principle, limited because, first, the Qur'an is not a "book" but a collection of passages revealed to Muhammad over a period of about twenty-three years and, second, because the Qur'an is not really translatable. This does not mean that the Qur'an should not be translated. It does mean that translations lose much in tone and nuance, let alone the incommunicable beauty, grandeur, and grace of the original. . . . The main distinction of Hana Kassis's concordance, in my view, is that it utilizes the semantic structure of Arabic vocabulary itself in revealing the meaning of the Qur'an on any given issue, point or concept. A reader who looks in the index of this concordance for a word which he has encountered in reading an English translation of the Qur'an—the word pride, for example—is directed immediately to the roots of the Arabic, Qur'anic terms for pride. At tne entries for these Arabic roots, all the derivative forms are shown, and the verses of the Qur'an in which they appear are there listed in translation. . . . I am confident that any person who is sincerely interested in understanding the Qur'an and appreciating the nuances of its diction and shades of its meaning can satisfy his need more fully with this book than in any way short of developing a real command over the Arabic language itself. —Fazlur Rahman, Professor of Islamic Thought, University of Chicago

Book excerpt: This is the first translation of the Quran by an American woman. It is a universal and inclusive translation with the hope that Islam will be better understood in the West. She also challenges the use of the wowrd "to beat" in 4: 34 as meaning "to go away" which is how the Prophet of Islam understood the word as it has historically justified violence against and abuse of Muslim women. "This interpretation must change," she says, "and revert to the way the Prophet understood it."

Book Synopsis Arabic-English Dictionary of Qurʾanic Usage by : Elsaid Badawi
Download or read book Arabic-English Dictionary of Qurʾanic Usage written by Elsaid Badawi and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-10-30 with total page 1095 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Qurʾan is the living source of all Islamic teaching, and is of singular importance to those interested in Islam and the study of religions. Despite this, there exists a long-felt lack of research tools for English first-language speakers who wish to access the Qurʾan in the original Arabic. The Dictionary of Qurʾanic Usage is the first comprehensive, fully-researched and contextualised Arabic-English dictionary of Qurʾanic usage, compiled in accordance with modern lexicographical methods by scholars who have a lifelong immersion in Qurʾanic Studies. Based on Classical Arabic dictionaries and Qurʾan commentaries, this work also emphasises the role of context in determining the meaning-scatter of each vocabulary item. Illustrative examples from Qurʾanic verses are provided in support of the definitions given for each context in which a particular word occurs, with cross-references to other usages. Frequently occurring grammatical particles are likewise thoroughly explained, insofar as they are used in conveying various nuances of meaning in the text.

Book Synopsis Concordance of the Koran by : Gustav Flügel
Download or read book Concordance of the Koran written by Gustav Flügel and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two special reasons for my producing this Concordance of the Koran which has been compiled after a method and system. The first reason is that in the writings of the Muslims one can hardly find even one page not having the actual holy words of the Koran or without these being clearly referred to: Hence a Concordance is necessary to determine the precise meaning of these words and to decide whether they are really the words of the Koran or not. Since J have been constantly coming up against such problems in my studies of, and writings in Arabic and since the Calcutta Concordance, entitled (i.e. the Stars of Discrimination) gives no easy and practical enough solution to these problems, I as well as others, particularly those who have no access to even that Concordance, have long felt the need for a book which could fulfill this demand. The second reason is that the Arabic lexicography is defective and imperfect: One comes across great difficulties and various shortcomings so that often there is, a lack of most reliable evidence for the meaning of individual words or, as far as their inflexion is concerned, of their use or construction. (p. [3]).
Book Synopsis Fables of the Ancients? by : Alan Dundes
Download or read book Fables of the Ancients? written by Alan Dundes and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the widespread consensus that the Qur'an was in oral tradition before being committed to written form, it should come as no surprise to learn that the Qur'an still bears the traces of its original oral form. The field of knowledge most concerned with oral tradition is folkloristics, the study of folklore. Folklorist Alan Dundes has carefully and respectfully documented some of these unmistakable traces. These traces include numerous oral formulas repeated throughout the Qur'an as well as several traditional folktales. Just as Jesus effectively used parables to get His message across, so similar means are to be found in the Qur'an. The scholarly identification of formulas and folktales in the Qur'an represents an entirely new approach to this world-famous religious text. Not only does it provide insight into the basic composition of this sacred document, but for readers not previously familiar with the Qur'an, it pinpoints and makes accessible many of the principal themes contained therein.
