Böcker i Lexington Studies in Classical and Modern Islamic Thought-serien

Driven by a detailed hermeneutical investigation of the Quranic story of creation, this book questions the hybrid Biblical/Quranic narrative that gradually erased the lines that define the authentic Quranic account. Abla Hasan argues that humanitys divine status is the bedrock from which to investigate the meaning of human religiosity and address the problem of pain and suffering. The detailed analysis in this book answers many linguistic and logical pending questions in the Quran and is a serious departure from popular Muslim narratives that seek to alleviate our pain and suffering.
