| Summary, etc |
The central figure of the Quran is not Muhammad but Allah. The Quran, Islams sacred scripture, is marked above all by its call to worship Allah, and Allah alone. Yet who is the God of the Quran? What distinguishes the quranic presentation of God from that of the Bible? In this illuminating study, Gabriel Said Reynolds depicts a god of both mercy and vengeance, one who transcends simple classification. He is personal and mysterious; no limits can be placed on his mercy. Remarkably, the Quran is open to Gods salvation of both sinners and unbelievers. At the same time, Allah can lead humans astray, so all are called to a disposition of piety and fear. Allah, in other words, is a dynamic and personal God. This eye-opening book provides a unique portrait of the God of the Quran.-- |
