Qur’an Commentary and the Biblical Turn
A History of Muslim Exegetical Engagement with the Biblical Text

Samuel Ross

Volume 3 in the series Islam – Thought, Culture, and Society
 

BRAIS-De Gruyter prize winner 2019

 

 

The Qur’an and the Bible have been called “intertwined scriptures” due to the Qur’an’s frequent invocation of biblical narratives and figures. But what is the history of Muslims’ exegetical engagement with the biblical text? Through a comprehensive survey of more than 170 Qur’an commentaries, Samuel Ross traces the longitudinal history of the Bible in tafsῑr. Offering detailed case studies and rich in historical context, Ross’s narrative culminates in the remarkable late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century biblical turn. Global in scope, this development has not only generated new Muslim views of the Bible but even new interpretations of the Qur’an itself.

This monograph has been awarded the annual BRAIS – De Gruyter Prize in the Study of Islam and the Muslim World.
