It’s actually around 10 years ago when I decided to edit this book.

Yet, nothing concrete happened…

…Not until the past 10 days that the editing work finally came to an end.

Here’s the snapshot:

Have you ever wondered about the implicit agreement between God and His creation that is mentioned in the Qur’an? Look no further than “The Covenant in the Qur’an: The Key to Unity of the Verses Contained in Qur’anic Sūrahs.” This captivating book delves into the concept of covenant as one of the fundamental ideas in the Qur’an. The author presents a thought-provoking argument that God proposes a system of regulations for the guidance of human life, but it is presented in the form of commandments to be accepted and implemented by humanity. In return for obedience, God makes certain promises and favors, which are conditional on human obedience.

Not only does this book explore the relationship between God and humanity, but it also delves into the relationship between humans themselves. The concept of covenant symbolizes a tie of relationship between two contracting parties to make them sure about their promises. This book analyzes the different terms that the Qur’an uses for the concept of covenant and provides a historical context to better understand the concept.

The author employs six important approaches to aid in better understanding the concept of covenant in the Qur’an, including lexical analysis and references to older and modern exegetists (mufassirūn). The book also examines ten different Sūrahs in chronological order, presenting a thorough and engaging investigation into the development of the idea of covenant in the Qur’an.

Don’t miss out on this enlightening and stimulating exploration of one of the key ideas in the Qur’an. Whether you are a religious scholar or simply interested in exploring new concepts in the thematic exegesis (al-tafsīr al-mawḍū‘ī) of the Qur’an, this book is a must-read.

Its paperback is expected to be available on Amazon within 24 hours and in the Philippines within this month of April, in sha’ Allah.
