Overview

Filling a gap in the current literature, the author presents the first detailed study in English on the Quranic ten commandments as depicted from Surah Al An'am, verses (6:151, 152 and 153). The study is presented in two volumes. Volume I* covered an introduction and the first five Quranic commandments; and Volume II analyzed the last five commandments. The full meaning of each commandment is shown by studying the Quranic verses related to the subject, as well as the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions. With extensive research and careful selection of Quranic verses and reliable sources of Prophet Muhammad's traditions, this book would be beneficial to students and teachers of schools and academic institutions, religions comparative studies, Quranic study groups, interfaith group dialogues, as well as any Muslim or non-Muslim who is asking: Is there anything in the Quran similar to the Ten Commandments in the Bible?
