Abstract

The Qur'an is not only the first written text of the Arab literature, but it also the foundation of the Muslims’ belief system and the source of the Islamic culture. From the very beginning of the Islamic civilization the best minds of the humanity scrutinized it. It was revealed “in a clear Arabic language” (the Qur’an, 26:195), this is why the language of the Qur’an attracted the researchers’ attention throughout the entire history of Islam. This book contains the view of a contemporary Iranian philosopher on the language of the Qur’an, which literally represents an amazing phenomenon of the human history.

The book is intended for general audience.
