Reviews

Dr. Ayoub's work seems to be a pioneering one but, indeed, promises to go a long way in filling a great need. - Fazlur Rahman, The University of Chicago It is well organized and presented and reads smoothly. Thus it is well suited to serve as a companion reference work to the Qur'an, especially for the non-Arabic-speaking reader and scholar interested in the religious significance of the Qur'an for Muslims. - Wilfred F. Madelung, The Oriental Institute, University of Oxford
