The Quran is not a textbook of science but is a highly scientific book on 756 occasions that briefly describes various nature's anatomical, biological, physiological, zoological, botanical, geological and cosmic phenomena affecting our lives on the earth. The study and knowledge of the Quran are essential for every learned person as well as for all faithful believers. It is especially essential for those scholars who are interested in the study of human civilization and 'man' and society since this book has been effectively instrumental not only in moulding the destinies of Islamic societies but also in shaping the destiny of the human race as a whole.
The Quran is regarded as a literary masterpiece and respected by both Muslims and non-Muslims and its place in classics of world literature is well established. In his translation of the Quran, Marmaduke Pickthall described it as “that inimitable symphony, the very sound of which moves man into tears and ecstasy”, and the German poet, Goethe had said: “However often we turn to it, it first sounds terse, it soon attracts, astounds, and in the end enforces our reverence. Its style is truly sublime, stern, grand and magical and that is the essence of this book.
