It studies the shortest \u003ci\u003esūrahs\u003c\/i\u003e of the Qur'an, which are traditionally dated to the beginnings of the preaching of Muḥammad in Mecca. The reference to the initial vision of Muḥammad in Sūrah 81, the point of departure for his career as Prophet, provides the starting point of the study of this group of \u003ci\u003esūrahs\u003c\/i\u003e. The analysis shows that the redactors who assembled the textual fragments of the Qur'an into a book were guided by precise intentions. In the end, it is these intentions that the rhetorical analysis of the text enables us to discover and better understand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michel Cuypers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948488019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948488013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lockwood Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Michel Cuypers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49097109537023,"sku":"9781948488013","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-quranic-apocalypse-michel-cuypers-9781948488013","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
