{"product_id":"animals-in-the-quran-9781107529915","title":"Animals in the Qur'an","description":"The Islamic tradition has always held animals in high esteem, deserving the same level of consideration as humans. The Qur'an opines that \"there is not an animal in the earth nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are people like you.\" This fascinating and highly original book examines the status and nature of animals as they are portrayed in the Qur'an and in adjacent exegetical works, in which animals are viewed as spiritual, moral, intelligent, and accountable beings. In this way, the study presents a challenge to the prevalent view of man's superiority over animals and suggests new ways of interpreting the Qur'an. By placing the discussion within the context of other religions and their treatment of animals, the book also makes a persuasive case for animal rights from an Islamic perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarra Tlili\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.62d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107529915\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eTlili, Sarra:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Sarra Tlili is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures at the University of Florida.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44456652996723,"sku":"9781107529915","price":59.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_86b36873-bb58-45ce-9709-5bd5d4e48d6c.jpg?v=1773752477","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/animals-in-the-quran-9781107529915","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
