The moral world of the Qurʼan

Muḥammad ʻAbd Allāh Darāz

"The moral authority of Islam derives from its great sacred book, the Qur'an. But what is the nature of its authority, and how does it relate to the daily practices and individual circumstances of Muslims? M.A. Draz analyses, for the first time in English, theoretical theory that underpins Qur'anic legislation, providing a classification of specific verses in which Islam's holiest text discusses moral issues and challenges. The principal purpose of this book is to demonstrate the ways in which the Qur'an provides, both on a theoretical and practical level, the moral code to which Muslims around the world adhere. The Moral World of the Qur'an will therefore be of interest to those - especially Muslims - working in the fields of ethics and philosophy, medical ethics. family and moral counselling, and other areas where practical ethical issues are raised"--Jacket.
