Fazlur Rahman (1919-88), one of the most important Muslim scholars of the twentieth century, devoted his career to helping students understand the Qur'an's teachings about God, man, and society. Back in print for a new generation of students and scholars to discover, "Major Themes of the Qur'an" is his introduction to one of the richest texts in the history of religious thought. In this classic work, Rahman unravels the Qur'an's complexities with the deep attachment of a Muslim educated in Islamic schools and the clarity of a scholar who taught for decades in the West.

"[Rahman] is a mature thinker, at once well informed and basically realistic about the reigning myths of modern secularist society. He is also a clear writer capable of disarming simplicity and tightly reasoned, technically detailed argument." - Patrick D. Gaffney, Journal of Religion "An event that needs to be given close attention. What is more, the book would seem to deserve attention for another reason: its aim to provide an introduction to the content of the Qur'an, something which most would agree has been sorely lacking until now." - Andrew Rippin, Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies "Here is a painstaking and positive effort to think through the Qur'an beyond the verse by verse, tediously grammatical, scrutiny which many have employed in past centuries." - Kenneth Cragg, Middle East Journal"
