I believe it is an excellent contribution to much needed literature that invites the reader to truly absorb and enter the world of the Qur’an. The beautiful writing style of the author corresponds nicely to the mysterious and compelling style of the Quranic original. And Allah alone gives success.Sheikh Ali Hani
