About this book

Amin Ahsan Islahi (1904–1997) wrote the eight-volume Urdu tafsir Tadabbur-e-Qur'an, developing the method of his teacher Hamid ad-Din Farahi, who argued that every surah has a central theme and that surahs are arranged in meaningful pairs and groups.

This first English volume covers al-Fatihah and al-Baqarah and shows how the verses connect to form a unified message.
