John Penrice's Dictionary and Glossary of the Kor-ân

First published almost a century ago, has withstood the test of time, and has been an aid to generations of Kor-ân students. According to Islamic doctrine the Kor-ân is the literal word of God, and it would be introduced by the phrase, "Qiil Allah ta''iilii, God the Exalted said", and when a passage has been recited aloud it will be said, "$adaq Allah al-''Azim, God Almighty has truly spoken".
