Presentation
The guide is divided into five major parts:
- (1) a listing of manuscripts of The Holy Koran, facsimile, and tafsir (i.e., commentaries on The Holy Koran);
- (2) printed texts of The Holy Koran in the original Arabic, the language in which it was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad;
- (3) interpretations (translations) in forty languages;
- (4) citations on The Holy Koran in special formats, particularly microfilm and sound recordings; and
- (5) studies about The Holy Koran, both books and articles, in a number of languages. Since the holdings of the Library are immense in this area, the works selected have been limited to titles that are considered of basic significance for the understanding of the different aspects and concerns of Koranic studies.
