Abstract

In Zelf koranlezen voert Hans Jansen de lezer binnen in de wereld waarin hij als weinig anderen de weg kent. Hij legt uit waarom de Koran ondoorgrondelijk is, traint de lezer in het herkennen van steeds terugkerende thema's en geeft vingerwijzigingen hoe het cryptische jargon en de onthutsend complexe manier van forumlezen die typisch is voor de Koran, te vertalen in begrijpelijk Nederlands. Jansen neemt vooral verzen onder de loep waarin standpunten worden gepredikt die in het Westen controversieel zijn, zoals de veelvuldige oproepen tegen de ongelovigen. Verder laat hij zijn licht schijnen over de verzen die over overspel gaan, over de onderschikking van de vrouw aan de man, het karakter van de joden en over de hoeri's die de martelaar ten deel zouden vallan in het paradijs.

Abstract

The tradition of scriptural commentary is largely unknown to those outside the field of Qur'anic studies and yet it constitutes one of the earliest and most significant traditions of Islam. From the earliest period, these commentaries reveal a wide spectrum of issues that engaged Muslim scholars who were seeking not only to understand the Qur'an but also to develop tools of understanding for relating revelation to the developing sciences of law, theology, philosophy, and governance. This groundbreaking work examines both early and contemporary commentaries, covering a wide spectrum of theological and hermeneutic approaches. The first volume analyses the approaches of Sunni, Shi'i, Ibadi, Mu'tazili, and Sufi commentators to six key verses of the Qur'an, revealing the subtle differences that influence debate in Islam today.

Abstract

This work deals with concepts of time in pre-Islamic Arabic poetry and in the Koran, placing them in relation to Hellenistic conceptions of time in Late Antique poetry. The analysis shows that just as in the much earlier field of Greek poetry, so too in Old Arabic verse time is seen as an inescapable power. The Arabic concept for endless time, dahr, is revealed to be the Arabic equivalent of the Greek concept aión. Inthe Koran the power of time is denied completely and replaced by the absolute power of God, which is described with the help of Hellenisticconceptions of time. The research sugges

The selections have been chosen and arranged to illustrate the religious and ethical message of the Koran.

Abstract

Dit boek wil bijdragen tot een betere kennis van de islam en de Koran. Tegen de achtergrond van de hedendaagse maatschappelijke context wordt nagegaan hoe het gesprek tussen islam en christendom bevorderd kan worden. Bijzondere aandacht gaat daarbij naar de uitdagingen, mogelijkheden en moeilijkheden die zich voordoen wanneer christendom en islam, Bijbel en Koran elkaar ontmoeten. Vijftien auteurs, zowel christenen als moslims, die actief betrokken zijn bij de dialoog tussen christendom en islam, begeleiden ons op de weg van wederzijds begrip en ontmoeting.
