This work, a translation of Imam al-Ghazali's 'Kitab Jawahir al-Qur'an', contains his views on several broad problems relating to the study of the Qur'an, in which various parts of the Qur'an are comprared to various types of valuables, such as jewels, pearls, rubies, red brimstones, corundums, etc. The book also carries translation of over 1500 verses which al-Ghazali calls the jewels and the pearls of the Qur'an. This classification is unprecendented in the history of Qur'anic studies, presented here in free-flowing modern English which makes the work scholarly and enjoyable.
