Source (google.com.pk)I found this book tremendously informative and uplifting. The many different interpretations of the Qur'an are really fascinating! It includes perspectives from Muhammad himself (Muslims traditionally follow his name with a showing of reverence, such as "Peace Be Upon Him" or "PBUH" for short), to great poets, the architectural masterpieces of the Dome of the Rock and Taj Mahal, Islamic rationalists, the American post-racial Muslim leader W. D. Mohammed, and even the fringe violence of Osama bin...moreIf the purpose of this book was to give readers a glimpse of what the quran is all about then to me it was not that clear. However since I am a little familiar with the history and contents of the Quran therefore I could understand the views it was trying to give from how the islamic figures use the Quran as a book that co-relates with their thinking. But for someone who just wants to know what the Quran is all bout without having to read it, I wouldn't recommend this book since it can be quite...moreA balanced account of the different interpretations of the Quran through out the ages.
There is danger in entrusting the interpretation of the Holy Book in the hands of psychopaths the likes of Bin Laden, who picks and chooses the verses that suits his evil purpose. The same applies in trusting those interpreters who seek to subjugate women.
The problem is never the Holiest of Books. It is always these mad interpreters, who cannot keep their warped interpretations to themselves and instead preferr...moreI learned a lot from this book, but it did feel very whitewashed at times. It sort of feels like the author is an extremely fundamentalist Muslim, because he really tries to make everything rainbows and puppy dogs, but I don't think it can possibly be that simple. So, while the book is quite insightful, and I learned a lot about the Qur'an throughout history, I fear all my new information might be biased. [Part of this might just be the period in which it was written, when anti-Muslim sentiment...moreThis book could have been wonderful and instead (to me) was simply average. The opportunity to provide Westerners with a comprehensive view of the Qur'an, and by extention Islam, was unfortunately lost here, but worth a look nevertheless. The author does mention the many different versions of the Qur'an floating around prior to the collection being put together officially (just like the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament), but does not explore the canonization of Mohammad's revelations and sayin...moreI struggled with this book a bit. I thought it would be at a more intro level than it was, so I didn't get as much out of it as I would have liked. Listening to it rather than reading it compounded this fact, as you really needed to catch everything the first time you heard it.
However, it was definitely worth my time. Perhaps I'll find something that assumes even a bit less knowledge of the Qur'an than this did and try that.
