Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Revealed atM adina. INTRODUCTION. This chapter contains a variety of passages belonging to different periods. The revelations are, however, all of Madina origin, excepting verses 26 and 27, whicli seem to be the remnant of a lost Makkan Sura. As to matter, the chapter may be divided into two portions. The first, extending to verse 120, relates to various matters of instruction and warning, suited to the circumstances of theM uslims during the period of prosperity intervening between the victory at Badr and the defeat at Ohod. The remainder of the chapter was intended to counteract the evils consequent upon the misfortunes of theM uslims at Ohod. ProhabU Date of the Revelations. Verses 1-25, 28-57, 66-94, and 98-120, belong to the period intervening between Ramadhdn of a.h. 2(B adr) andS hawwal of a.h. 3(O hod). Verses 26 and 27 are Makkan, but tbeir date cannot be ascertained. Verses 58-65 allude to the visit of the Christians of Najran toM adina in a.h. 9. They probably belong to that year. Verses 95-97, referring to the rites of pilgrimage as fully established, must be referred to the later years of Muhammad slife, say A.H. lO. VOL. II.
