520			_aIslam is the one true religion taught to mankind by a series of Prophets, each of whom brought a divinely-revealed book--The Torah, the Psalms, the Gospels, and finally the Qur'an, which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him). It is with this final manifestation--that is with the teachings of the Qur'an and the Hadith--that this book of readings is concerned. Its purpose is to show how Islam's spiritual and religious precepts speak to all humanity, and reflect Islam's place in world religion. Each of the extracts has been chosen to exemplify an important aspect of the Prophet's teachings, and the commentaries (prepared under the guidance of leading Muslim scholars) bring out the salient and significant points of doctrine and belief.
