The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Koran: The Inspiring Truth About the Sacred Book of Islam Brandon Toropov
Taking the same approach as the best-selling The Complete Idiot's Guide (R) to the Bible (now in its 2nd edition-0028643828), Sheik Sarwar presents a balanced overview of The Koran written with the knowledge of a scholar who not only understands but also regularly teaches it. Presented thematically, the author not only explains the "flow" of The Koran, but also what it has to say about Allah and humanity, virtue, justice, life on earth, the afterlife, women, love, unbelievers, faith, and tradition. The Complete Idiot's Guide (R) to the Koran also explains how and why Muslims study The Koran in the original Arabic. With background on Muhammad and The Koran's historical influence, this book gives readers a succinct, unbiased overview suitable for anyone who wants to better understand this fascinating document: the cornerstone of Islam.
