In this gripping narrative history, Lesley Hazleton tells the tragic story at the heart of the ongoing rivalry between the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam, a rift that dominates the news now more than ever. Even as Muhammad lay dying, the battle over who would take control of the new Islamic nation had begun, beginning a succession crisis marked by power grabs, assassination, political intrigue, and passionate faith.

Soon Islam was embroiled in civil war, pitting its founder’s controversial wife Aisha against his son-in-law Ali, and shattering Muhammad’s ideal of unity. Combining meticulous research with compelling storytelling, After the Prophet explores the volatile intersection of religion and politics, psychology and culture, and history and current events.

It is an indispensable guide to the depth and power of the ShiaSunni split.

This is the 6th Edition and 5th revised version of this translation. The Qur’n is, in its own words, light, which means that it is self-manifesting, with no need of an external source of illumination; other things need light to become visible and manifest.

With it God guides those who pursue His pleasure to the ways of peace, and brings them out from darkness into light by His will, and guides them to a straight path (5:16). Of course, the Qur’n is not an exception among revealed scriptures in that it is a source of light and guidance.

According to the Qur’an, so were the Torah and the Gospel, scriptures given to Moses and Jesus. All scriptures of Divine origin are a source of light and guidance. Nothing is more important for man than the knowledge of the very Source of reality.

Any knowledge that is not informed with this awareness is just a kind of ignorance. All effort that does not derive from this knowledge is ultimately fated to end in futility and failure. The Qur’n claims to be the most reliable source of this knowledge and the best guide for human endeavour.

(Reflections from the Holy Quran) is not a book interpreted in a traditional manner in the academic and scientific sense, rather, an (intermediary) book based on several available interpretations, summaries and briefs. The explanations and interpretation do not conform with meanings in lexicons, rather the Author attempted to draw its (linguistic) and (symbolic references) from the spirit of the Divine text.

The (Narrative Approach) adopts the style of (Quranic Narrative) in interpreting the meaning of Quranic verses where thoughts and concepts are presented in a structure that is meaningful, complete and relevant. It seeks within certain limitations to join and establish an analogy, and examoines the verses and subjects of a similar nature and content, it also, interpreted the verses in a controlled manner in relation to one another.

No reference is made to quotations in interpreting the text, it is rather the Author’s understanding of the Quranic text and examination of its futuristic implications in his own words and style to convey these interpretations to the reader, in addition to the knowledge he acquired from earlier readings of books of interpretation both new and old.
