Relation As Books The History of the Qurʾanic Text from Revelation to Compilation: A Comparative Study with the Old and New Testaments

With full colour images, meticulously annotated and researched, The History of the Qur’anic Text provides unique insights into the Qur’an’s immaculate preservation throughout its history, covering such topics as how divine revelations were received, Prophet Muhammad’s role in teaching and disseminating these verses, the text’s compilation under his guidance and the setting of its final shape shortly after his death. It also looks at the origins of Arabic, its palaeography and orthography, the so-called Mushaf of Ibn Mas‘ud, and the strict methodology employed in assembling textual fragments. This scholarly work provides an essential basis for sincere study of the Qur’an at a time when mis-representation of Islam’s Holy Book has become all too common.

The author also investigates the histories of the Old and New Testaments, relying entirely on Judeo-Christian sources, and by so doing the book attains an absolutely epic scope. Through this the author makes a sophisticated and passionate case for questioning the aims of Western scholarship towards Islam’s Holy Book and illustrates convincingly that such research, motivated by more than mere curiosity, has no scientific bearing on the Qur’an’s integrity. A truly monumental effort, an indispensable tool for Muslims and non-Muslims alike, this work presents a cogent and powerful argument for the Qur’an’s unique inviolability and will serve as a cornerstone addition to any personal library and Islamic curriculum.

Comment On Containing Books The History of the Qurʾanic Text from Revelation to Compilation: A Comparative Study with the Old and New Testaments

Since I read this book over a year ago, I just wish to simply comment on how exceptional and important this book is for its subject matter - especially after just having completely Bart Ehrman's Forged: Writing in the Name of God. This book is a must read for all those interested in the textual veracity of the Islamic scripture. It is especially important because after Muhammad al-Azami established the impeccability of the Qur'an, he contrasts it with the Old and New Testaments in a way that

One of the most highly researched and real work on the subject. From methodology to current interpretation this book is marvellous piece of work. TRULY MASTERPIECE.

I honestly cant decide whether to give this book a 4 or 5 star rating bcs there were about 2/3 chapters which I couldnt fully understand. I honestly think I have to reread this for better understand & thus, being able to provide a better review. However, I do admit that this was a breathe of fresh air & very interesting read. I mean, although I do believe that the Qurans integrity is protected by Allah (as said in the Quran), I never knew how the Quran managed to survive for centuries

الكاتب متمكن من موضوع الكتاب. يجب ان يترجم الي اللغة العربية حيث يتطرق الكاتب لتاريخ جمع القران و يختبر نظريات و تخرصات المستشرقين في منهج . مقنع و جميل ميزة اخرى في الكتاب ان الكاتب يقارن بين جمع القران و التوراة و الانجيل ممايعطيك نظرة شاملة و كيف ان المستشرقين يستقون نظرياتهم من فرضية ان كل الكتب السماوية مرة بنفس تجربة التحريف

Striking.. often goes against academic naunces by being blunt and to the point.
