Synopsis

The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume series, encompasses the seven non-Christian religions of Asia: Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam. Translated into English by authorities in their respective fields, these sacred texts have been edited by F. Max Muller and have profoundly influenced civilization. The Qur'an, Part 2 (1880) translated by E. H. Palmer, is Volume IX of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This book, in two parts, focuses on Islam and contains chapters XVII through CXIV of The Qur'an. Considered a foundation of Arabic literature, this is a crucial text for those who want to deepen their understanding of this ancient faith.
