The essential Koran – The Heart Of Islam by Cleary, Thomas Tr.
THE ESSENTIAL KORAN
The Qur’an is universally known as the sacred book of Islam, the religion of submission to the will of God.
The chapters and verses in this volume of extracts from the Qur’an (the more phonetically accurate designation of the book traditionally known in English as the Koran) have been selected to form a rosary of readings and recitations intended to introduce the non-Muslim reader to the essential wisdom, beauty, and majesty of this sacred book.
The Qur’an is undeniably a book of great importance even to the non-Muslim, perhaps more today than ever, if that is possible.
One aspect of Islam that is unexpected and yet appealing to the post-Christian secular mind is the harmonious interplay of faith and reason.
Islam does not demand unreasoned belief. Rather, it invites intelligent faith, growing from observation, reflection, and contemplation, beginning with nature and what is all around us.
Accordingly, antagonism between religion and science such as that familiar to Westerners is foreign to Islam.
