El Coran / The Qur'an [9788491050728]

Overview

El Corán es el libro sagrado del Islam. Durante la vida del profeta Mahoma, las "revelaciones" eran transmitidas oralmente o escritas en hojas de palmeras, trozos de cuero o huesos, etc. A la muerte del profeta, en 632, sus seguidores comenzaron a reunir estas "revelaciones", que durante el Califato de Utman ibn Affan tomaron la forma que hoy conocemos, 114 capítulos (azoras), cada uno dividido en versículos (aleyas).


El Corán toma muchos personajes que aparecen en los libros sagrados del judaísmo y el cristianismo (Tanaj y Biblia) y en la literatura devota (por ejemplo, los libros apócrifos), con muchas diferencias en detalle. Personajes del mundo hebreo y cristiano muy conocidos como Adán, Noé, Abraham, Moisés, Jesús de Nazaret y Juan Bautista aparecen mencionados como profetas islámicos.
