Book Released in Qatar Explores Quran’s Role in Islamic Ummah’s Civilizational Advancement

IQNA – The second edition of the book ‘Message of the Quran,’ has been released in Qatar by the country’s Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs (Awqaf).

The ministry’s Department of Islamic Research and Studies has released the book as part of its collective cultural projects series.

The ministry stated in its announcement Saturday that this new edition responds to high demand from readers and intellectuals, following the depletion of the first edition published in 2010 to mark the completion of the Mushaf Qatar.

Director of the Department of Islamic Research and Studies Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Ghanem Al-Thani explained that the book presents a collective intellectual effort from a number of writers and researchers from Arab and Islamic countries. It explores the central role of the Quran in the civilizational advancement of the Ummah, its approach to correcting previous religious perspectives, and its universal message to all humanity.

He highlighted that the book emphasizes the Quran’s role in promoting reflection and contemplation, encouraging inquiry into cosmic sciences as a pathway to progress, and clarifying the foundations of a righteous civilization and the causes of its decline, all framed within a Quranic vision that integrates faith, moral values, and material development.

He stated that the release of this edition reflects the ministry’s commitment to enriching the cultural landscape with scholarly references that meet readers’ aspirations for a deeper understanding of the Quranic message and its civilizational impact.
