More about the book
Focusing on the historical context of the Qur'an, this book examines its reflections on the cultural, religious, and political dynamics in Western Arabia during the 603-630 conflict between the Roman and Sasanian empires. Through six case studies, it explores the text's formation and narrative techniques, including a detailed analysis of narrative apostrophe. The work connects the Qur'an's narrative choices to broader themes of late antiquity, revealing how these elements interact with other texts and perspectives over time.
