The Opening To The Quran Commentary & Vocabulary Reference of al-Fatiha

The Opening To The Quran Commentary & Vocabulary Reference of  al-Fatiha

"The Opening" chapter (or

sura

) of the Qur'an (called

al-Fatiha

) is undoubtedly the most often recited portion of revealed scripture in the world. Its impact on the psyche and soul of more than a fifth of the human family cannot be overstated. One who comes close to the meaning and import of its seven sacred verses draws near indeed to understanding the religion of Islam and the Muslim men and women who seek to follow its "straight way."

Reviews

:

''The format, substance, and writing are superb. Americans would welcome

a commentary marshaling all the leading

tafasir

[commentaries] and with

vocabulary references. If Dr. Ahmad Zaki Hammad and the editorial team

deny this work, it will surely vastly exceed in merit all the rest of their

lives. The English is a joy to read. The entire effort, so far, is simply

magisterial, which means that it will have preempted all further such efforts

for at least a century to come.''
