This Englishtranslation of the tafsir of Surah al-Fatihah and Surah al-Baqarah is part ofthe eight-volume Urdu tafsir, Tadabbur-e-Qur’an (Pondering over the Qur’an).This tafsir is based on the principle of coherence, and is perhaps the firstsustained and successful attempt to demonstrate such coherence and to refutethe oft-repeated allegation of the lack of order or integrity in the Qur’an.Without recognising and appreciating the coherence of the Qur’an, one may gainknowledge of certain commandments and teachings but will remain ignorant of theQur’anic wisdom (hikmah) contained in its beautifully integrated and holisticmessage. The Urdu original was first published in 1967, the result of thelife-long work of Amin Ahsan Islahi (1904-1997), a pre-eminent scholar of theQur’an.
