This book offers English translations of influential essays by contemporary Muslim scholars on Qurʾānic hermeneutics, showcasing diverse approaches to interpretation and highlighting critical debates on context, modernity, ethics, and reform within the global Muslim intellectual tradition.
This book brings together leading Muslim thinkers—from Egypt to Tunisia, Morocco, Iran, Turkey, to Indonesia—offering bold, diverse perspectives on how to interpret the Qurʾān in a changing world. From gender justice and interfaith relations to critiques of tradition and modernity, these essays tackle urgent questions facing Muslim communities. Many appear here in English for the first time. Whether defending classical methods or proposing reformist approaches, each author engages deeply with the Qurʾān’s meaning and relevance. A unique resource for students, scholars, and all who seek to understand contemporary Qurʾānic hermeneutics from within the Muslim tradition.

Abdullah Saeed, PhD, is Sultan of Oman Professor of Arab and Islamic Studies at the University of Melbourne, Australia. His research focuses on contemporary Qurʾānic hermeneutics, with major works including Reading the Qurʾan in the Twenty-First Century (Routledge, 2013).
