Summary: | Malek Bennabi’s The Qur’ānic Phenomenon provides an excellent analysis of Qur’ānic revelation through the application of the phenomenology. A closer analysis of the work shows that Bennabi’s major contribution is to be found in his narrative strategies and comparative style as evidenced, among others, in chapters 13 and 14 of the Qur’ānic Phenomenon. Here Bennabi provides a balanced picture of the story of Joseph in the Torah and the Qur’ān. Bennabi’s textual strategy, narrative and meta-narrative brings out the niqueness of the Qur’ānic account of Joseph. The reconstruction of the story of Joseph opened a new type of discourse in understanding the relationship between religion and modernity. |
