In al-Suyuti?s (1445-1515) 'The Perfect Handbook of the Qur?anic Sciences', we find a complete description of the problems concerning the qur?anic text that still arise today, of the solutions proposed and the methods employed. This text bears witness to both freedom of debate and the variety of solutions. It is a collection of multiple accounts, both prior to and contemporary with the author, and not simply an isolated, subjective opinion. Its aim is to be the guide for every good Qur?an commentator because of the abundant information it provides en all the qur?anic sciences. This work is an invaluable point reference for the history of the Arab-Islamic culture in general and of linguistics in particular.
