Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Holy Quran Text. Translation & Commentary(the Example Commentary in Brief)(volume Four) The Author's Preface THE EXAMPLE COMMENTARY IN BRIEF The greatest capital that we Muslims have, is the GLORIOUS QURA"N. Our gnosis and knowledge, the commandments, living programmes, Islamic politics, and the way of approach to God, and all and all; we find them in this Great Divine Book.

Therefore it is incumbent upon all the Muslims, to get better acquainted with this great religious book they have. On the other hand; the fame of Islam has widely spread all over the GLOBE, partly due to the Muslims late vigilance and wakefulness, and partly due to the Islamic Revolution of Iran. This widely echoed name, has aroused the sense of investigation and research, in the non - Muslims who now like to know more and more about Islam.

Therefore, at present, there is a great demand for the translations and the commentaries of the Holy QURA"N, throughout the world. Unfortunately such a wide demand has not been satisfied yet. Fortunately the presence of the HOLY QURA"N, all over in the Muslim societies, throughout the world and especially in our own country (Iran), daily increases. Expert reciters of the Book; those who keep it in their memory, and the well versed commentators are not few or rare.

The commentary of QURA"N is now turned to an important classic field of learning in the THEOLOGICAL SCHOOLS of QOM, and for this purpose the EXAMPLE COMMENTARY was prepared, which is expressive, simple to understand, deep in meanings and meanwhile it is a work, up to date. This was aimed to answer the problems of the day and to satisfy the necessities of our time. Perhaps this is why the book has been received by the people of various kinds, with ardent interest and hot enthusiasm.

A big group of scholars, and learned commentators, well versed in QURA"N, who are mostly Theological School Teachers of Qom; such as the masters and professors: MOHAMMAD REZA A"SHTIANI - MOHAMMAD JAAFAR EMA"MI - DAWOOD ELHA"MI - ASADULLAH IMANI - ABD. ALRASUL HASANI - SAYYED HASAN SHOJAEE - SAID NUROLLAH TABA" TABA"EE - MAHMUD ABDULLAHI - MOHSEN GHERA"ATI and MOHAMMAD MOHAMMADI (ESHTEHARDI), worked hard for a period of fifteen years full time, to create this important and voluminous work.

Of course their weariness was entirely removed by the interest and warm attention that people paid to their work.
