Encyclopaedia of the Qur'an Online Publisher: Brill Annual Subscription: $858.00 Query
Description The Qur'an is the primary religious text for one-sixth of the world's population. Understood by Muslims to contain God's own words, it has been an object of reverence and of intense study for centuries. The thousands of volumes that Muslim scholars have devoted to qur'nic interpretation and to the linguistic, rhetorical and narrative analysis of the text are sufficient to create entire libraries of qur'nic studies.
