Immutable word of God, last divine revelation made with the seal of the Prophets, inimitable as much in its content as in its form and its eloquence, the Koran does not cease to arouse the interest of those who have faith in it as well as those who do not believe. not in its divine origin.

If it is true that we evaluate the disciplines and other objects of study by the yardstick of the subjects with which they deal, the Koranic sciences amply deserve the place which is theirs among the very numerous Islamic sciences. However, it is strange to note that there are so few works in French dealing with the sciences of the Koran! This is why we have decided to make our contribution in this field, by translating a comprehensive, academic and accessible work written by one of the world-renowned specialists in this discipline, Dr. Musâ'id al-Tayyâr.
