Synopsis

Divine knowledge has been revealed to guide people through their journey towards their destiny. It tells what is expected from them, what their character should be, and how they are to behave in this world. Lack of knowledge tends to corrupt people. In his latest book, The Mission and Destiny of Humankind—An Exercise in Understanding the Qur’an, Dr. Muhammad Hafeez illustrates his own personal approach to the study of the Qur’an, which emphasizes the ongoing theme that we as humans have been placed on earth to be God’s trustees. Individual Qur’anic passages are studied, reflected upon, organized thematically, and often even placed in outline format within the tables that frequently grace the text. This is no robotic reading of the Qur’an devoid of thought and contemplation. This is a sincere attempt by a devoted Muslim to reach a reasoned and thoughtful understanding of God’s word to us.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Originally from Pakistan, Dr. Muhammad A. Hafeez earned master’s degrees in history and chemical technology from the University of Panjab. He then attended City University in London, England, and graduated with a PhD in chemical engineering. Though he migrated to the United States in 1973, he spent over twenty years in Saudi Arabia, where he lived and worked from 1983 to 2004. It was here that his passion for studying the religion of Islam benefitted from invaluable study circles of the Qur’an and various religious scholars to whom he is deeply indebted. Author of Human Character and Behavior and The Mission and Destiny of Humankind, Dr. Hafeez now lives in Liverpool, New York, where he continues to faithfully examine Islam within its theological, historical, and cultural perspectives.
