It is the only modern study in English dedicated to the subject, and is a suitable reference work for both the expert and the general reader. [Available for shipping to Malaysian address only.

The Qur’an has extensively been studied by Muslim scholars. This interest developed the sciences of the Qur’an into a discipline that comprehensively studies every aspect of the Book of Allah.

All major religions have dealt with questions of life after death, although many do not treat it in detail as have Muslim theologians and traditionists. The present text attributed to Imam al-Ghazali was based on a translation of his Durrah al-Fakhirah (The Precious Pearl). Al-Ghazali gives a much less theoretical description than in his other works, and makes much use of stories and traditions. Many of these traditions are common in Islamic sources, particularly those giving details of the period immediately after death and the events of the eschaton. Throughout this book, al-Ghazali stresses on the freeing of the soul from the body, the comparison of death with the sleep of this world, and the eternal abiding in the presence of God.

A widely held view about the Qur'an is that in its received form, it lacks coherence. Most approaches to the Qur'an have remained atomistic in character. Some Western scholars even tried to rearrange the Qur'an to make it 'more comprehensible'. Muslim scholar Amin Ahsan Islahi however rejects this view that Qur'an is disjoined, and argues that the Qur'an possesses nazm or coherence, which is both aesthetically pleasing and carried profound hermeneutical significance. This is the first detailed study of Islahi's contribution to Qur'anic exegesis, and tries to assess his theory of Qur'anic coherence as reflected in his tafsir Tadabbur-i Qur'an.
