Holy Quran, the divine book is a great treasure of knowledge and wisdom. It is the original source. This Holy book is the original source of inspiration for the whole mankind. Holy Quran stands for peace–peace for all, not for the Muslims, alone. In fact, Holy Quran, when interpreted, incorporates in its fold, safety and security for the whole mankind. Holy Quran, the divine scripture addresses all human beings, not only the Muslims. Prophet of Islam, Hadrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) is known as the benefactor of mankind. Thus, Islam’s message is for the whole universe and Allah (God) is the lord of all the worlds. Islam is universal in its nature, essence, belief, philosophy, ideology, approach and practice. Truly speaking, Holy Quran addresses all the human beings and not merely Muslims. Islam–despite being the most progressive, logical and scientific religion, on this planet–is also the most misunderstood religion. This confusion about Islam has recently increased due to certain eventual reasons. However, recently, Islam has attracted the minds of people towards it and resulted into a deep interest in knowing Islam. More and more people want to know about Islam, the religion, which has once again stirred the world community. Holy Quran, however, advocates non-violence, peace and fraternity. Holy Quran, from the very first day has raised the banner of reasoning and enlightenment, on the one hand and humanity, equality and fundamental rights on the other. The need of the hour is to correct the situation and to eradicate this feeling and tendency, prevailing all over and to depict the true picture of Islam. Hence, this bold and courageous endeavour, to bind the whole world of Holy Quran in the form of a series, spanning over dozens of books and titled as Encyclopaedia of Quranic Studies. This study also explores the relevance of Holy Quran in the contemporary world. On may believe it or not, today Islam is the fastest developing religion, which is spreading–through voluntary preaching and invitation–in the whole world and in west, including USA at a faster pace, than ever. Over the past few years, the popularity of Holy Quran and other authentic Islamic books has touched new heights. Islam is perhaps seen as the last bastion of spirituality, mortality, tradition and religious values, leading to real salvation. For a comprehensive study of Holy Quran, one intelligent reader requires exclusive, authentic and exhaustive books to satisfy their urge, answer their quest and convince them on all counts. This voluminous studies aimed at the same goal. These books are in fact a grand treasure of knowledge and awareness about Holy Quran and as well as a window, leading to Quranic wisdom. Further, it ascertains the honourable status of Holy Quran as a perfect great book, relevant for all times. The honest intention of the editors and compilers is focused on projecting Holy Quran in totality and in nutshell-bringing the whole world of Quranic wisdom in the fold of one voluminous book. Peculiarly, every volume of this vast study is a comprehensive book in itself and covers a particular angle or dimension of Holy Quran. To make it straight, all the volumes make on exhaustive huge book on one hand and each volume is a separate book on the other. Hopefully, this research-based work would fill the vacuum for a book of knowledge on Holy Quran and prove to be a source of information and reference for all scholars, researchers and general readers, coming from amongst the Muslims, non-Muslims, orientalists and of course those western scholars and researchers, who may require a good source in an international language.
