Descriere The Koran (Al-Qur'an): Arabic-English Bilingual Edition with an Introduction by Mohamed A. 'Arafa - Mohamed A. 'arafa Phd

\nThis Arabic / English side-by-side translation of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) brings together one of the best known translations in the English language - Maulana Muhammad Ali's classic text, juxtaposed with the original Arabic Koran. \n \nMohamed A. 'Arafa, Ph.D. introduces the Koran with a detailed overview of Islam, Islamic law (the Shari'a) and the beliefs of Muslims. His Introduction examines Islam as a religion as well as current issues that Muslims face, practical and policy considerations in addressing terrorism and Islamic law as a positive legal system and a divine legal system. \n \nAfter careful examination, Maulana Muhammad Ali's translation was selected due to its careful fidelity in accurately conveying the meanings of the Arabic while maintaining fluidity in the English. The Arabic text contains all diacritical marks to aid students to master pronunciation in Koran recitation. \n \nMohamed A. 'Arafa (Ph.D., Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law; LL.M., University of Connecticut School of Law; LL.B., Alexandria University School of Law) is Assistant Professor of Criminal Law and Criminal Justice at Alexandria University Faculty of Law (Egypt); Adjunct Professor of Law at Indiana University Robert H.
