Dr. Sayyed Hossein Nasr, "The Study Quran"

[@rafatjahan7668]

I have ordered my copy and I want to begin my journey, In Sha Allah , relentlessly praying for true guidance from the one true God. I was already contemplating on these lines , and was totally moved when Dr.Nasr qouted at 33:41 "The beginning of wisdom is the fear of God" Subhan Allah!!

[@mordechaiharris1478]

He quotes it from St. Paul, but Paul is actually quoting from The book of Proverbs 9:1 from the Tanach (the Hebrew Bible) and the whole verse is 'תְּחִלַּת חָכְמָה יִרְאַת יְהוָה וְדַעַת קְדֹשִׁים בִּינָה' 'The beginning of wisdom is the fear of G-d, knowledge of the Holy one is understanding'.

[@ismailjama178]

Rafat Jahan Welcom brother,insha allah you will be guided to the right path.

[@nejatshifa7030]

The beginning of wisdom is to wonder what we are doing on earth, to be confused, and to question the status quo, and just to wonder "is this what life is supposed be like? What am I supposed to be doing on earth. Why?"

[@nejatshifa7030]

God is not to be feared but to be loved and revered first.

[@mohammad.algathali]

You will find wisdom with the lights of wisdom, the Progeny of the Prophet Muhammad, God bless Him and His Progeny.. Nahjul-Balagha (Path of Eloquence), Yasin al-Jibouri Translation, 236 Sermon: Imam Ali Ibn Abu Talib, peace be upon him, describing Members of the Prophet's Family, peace be upon them: ❪❪They are the life of knowledge and the death of ignorance. Their forbearance tells you of their knowledge, their outer self of their inner self, and their silence of the wisdom of their speech.❫❫. Sunday morn RAMADAN month 26, 1442 May 9, 2021

[@NasirAhmedApu]

Very nice program well presented by both the speakers . Loved it .

[@nejatshifa7030]

Very nice man. He has a wealth of knowledge about Islam. We should read not only his translation of the Koran but his other books also. We should all read his books. Very intelligent man. Comprehensive knowledge. Not like some narrow minded scholars whose scope of knowledge is limited to the Koran and the Hadith. Islam should not be limited to the Koran and the Hadith. We need educated and open minded muslims like him. Judging from his credentials and intelligence his translation of the Koran is the best.

[@carlsmith3709]

What do you consider his best books?

[@henrythoreau645]

Very interesting. Thank you.

[@Shiraz354]

I have bought a copy of "The Study of Quran" and it good translation which give more information of each verse of the Quran and i was just wondering is it not possible for brother Nasr to write a book of "four school of thoughts' and give write brief opinion of each imam?

[@Hanioo7]

I respect he defended beautifully Islamic philosophy that Ibn Taymiya tried to destroy,

[@Neorient]

Even Ghazzali criticized philosophy

[@contrarian8877]

Allah gave us a questioning, curious and discerning mind for a reason. To not use the faculty of critical thinking would be an affront to the Creator.

[@bernardmcavoy1864]

Thank you for that. Ibn Taimiyya is the true originator of the Wahhabis.

[@al-kimiya6962]

@@bernardmcavoy1864 though He himself practiced a mild form of Tasawwuf and was a great admirer of sufis like Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (r.a), i disagree with him a lot on many things, especially over his overt literalist interpretation of Qur'an when it comes to theology but things are not as black and white as it seems, He was a profound thinker and introduced some radically distinct and unorthodox ideas, which even some extreme Sufis will have hard time getting in terms with, such as; theory of perpetual creativity and cessation of hellfire, thus a kind of salvific inclusivism, which Najdi Takfiris, who admire him as Shaykh-ul-Islam can't even begin to imagine in their wildest dreams.

[@bernardmcavoy1864]

@@al-kimiya6962 So Ibn Taymiyyah was a profound thinker? I suggest that you explain yourself. Furthermore : what is an extreme sufi?

I love Dr. Nasr. It was a pleasure and such a great honor to meet Dr. Nasr when he was chancellor of Sharif University in Iran. Dr. Nast is by far the most kind, intelligent and honorable man I have ever known. This is the caliber of a man Iranians deserve to be the next Supreme Leader of Iran.

[@jedadruled984]

+Allen Montand Is Dr Nasr a Shia ? Is he a follower from the mass murderer Imam Ali ?

[@syedabdullah2844]

+Jedad Ruled Are you a Muslim? If so, you are stepping onto a path of disbelief if you say that one of the four closest and best companions of the Prophet SM is a mass murderer. He, may Allah be pleased with him, is one of those whom Allah SWT had announced Jannah for, before death. He reveres the Prophet SM more than any of us ever will, and follows him more than any of us can imagine. And you make this gross, Faith-threatening accusation about such a highly ranked Sahabah? And please don't hate the shia, and don't be biased for sunni or whatever you are. You have been given the name Muslim-that is what you are. Saying you are a sunni or shi'a is constructing your own identity, and is strictly forbidden in Islam. Don't fall for this division. Revive the united Muslim ummah.

[@jedadruled984]

Syed Abdullah Unity ? You mean like the unity that Khomeinists are genociding the Syrian people in the hope that the Mahdi reappears? Great unity.

[@Ahmad-ps9zh]

No need to argue. But yes, to answer your question he is Shi'a, but on a broader sense he is a perennialist so not sectarian within Islam or even when it comes to other religions, he believes that they are valid.

From your statements one can conclude that you are ignorant!

[@diaasalman2298]

I trust that you wonderful people have done great job. Thank you so very much for your efforts. I just may add that if by any means you still looking for better work as a bad habit of professional and sincere schoolers that you may consult with the work of Prof. Fadel Saleh Assamaraea, who has done an exceptional Arabic interpretation of Qur'an (Lamasat Bayaneyah). We as native Arabic speakers have found him and his work by far very impressive and helpful. May Allah bless you all.

[@shanesheffield9938]

We are actually required to learn the language of the quran as muslims.... Most people speak at least two languages. Why cant it be Arabic for one of them? Islam is to surrender our whole being to Allah. Allah is of priority in our lives. MaashaAllah. But Allah has Promised that He will protect the Quran. InsyaAllah. A trojanhorse?

[@bacinthezahab3289]

I dont undetstand what you mean by Ttojan horse?

[@Watermark0n]

People should learn Arabic but it's a long process and many English speaking Muslims reach adulthood without having completed it. They deserve to be able to study their religion themselves to keep them attached, and hopefully in study they will eventually learn Arabic. I honestly had no desire to learn Arabic before I read this study Koran, when I realized there was much I was probably missing.

[@73redasse]

please is there traduction in french or arabe.

[@chickenstrangler3826]

You mean translation? Probably not for the study quran.

[@voltage80x]

In the General Introduction- XXVII- why does it insert (“wont”) after sunnah? I’m so confused by this. What are the authors saying by inserting (“wont”) here. The sentence- “It also contains instructions for various individual religious practices, and especially rites, whose details were provided by the sunnah *(“wont”)*, and ahadith (saying actions and tactic approvals) of the Prophet.”

When you rise to perform the prayer, wash your faces, and your hands up to the elbows, and wipe your heads and your feet up to the ankles. If you are in a state of major ritual impurity, then purify yourselves. but if you are ill, or on a journey, or one have you has come from satisfying a call of nature, or you have touched women, and you find no water, then resort to clean earth, and wipe therewith your faces and your hands.

[@dadbidad1322]

Dr. Nasr may have written hundreds of papers, but he has had nothing new to say. The study of Quran for him is to cut and paste materials from books which were written about Quran/Islam in the past centuries. Neither these sources, nor Dr. Nasir’s own work use methodology acceptable by today’s academic standards. He throws names around as though they have created anything of value.

[@cavediver7897]

Is he bais, I don't trust this man's work at all but I have do my own research about him

[@osmansaid4601]

Who cares about kafirs

[@ss193857]

Nope. No you do not need the history of prophet Muhammad to understand the Quran if you actually believe the text itself. What you need and the extent to which you understand it is only a function of your truthfulness and trust in truth in reality: the conviction that there is no god but the One God the creator of all there is. As a result the scholars past and present tend to not understand even the basics.

[@saq546]

The Book of Allah (The Quran) calls on the People of the Book to have faith in our master Muḥammad, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him, and it does not consider those who disbelieve in our master Muḥammad to be from the people of salvation nor does it consider those who believe Allah to be the third of three or that the Messiah is the son of Allah to be from the people of salvation.[3] Our theology is not taken from those who are suspect in their theology nor from those who flatter those who contradict the truth, seeking to ingratiate themselves while having certain interests, or something similar, in mind.
