Qur'an, Part 1 of 2: Chapters I-XVI (Volume VI)

The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume series, encompasses the seven non-Christian religions of Asia: Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam. Translated into English by authorities in their respective fields, these sacred texts have been edited by F. Max Muller and have profoundly influenced civilization. The Qur'an, Part 1 (1880) translated by E. H. Palmer, is Volume VI of The Sacred Books of the East, a series available from Cosimo Classics. This book, in two parts, focuses on Islam And consists of chapters I through XVI of The Qur'an. Muslims believe this foundational Arabic text was revealed to the prophet Muhammad by God, and is a valuable addition to the personal library of those interested in Islam.
