Abstract
This article explores some recent Western scholarship in their resurrection and attempts to weigh the relationship between historical and literary approaches to the Qur’an. Both of these approaches are strongly affirmed that they are not threats for Islam. The artificiality of the distinction of literary and historical is also an important argument. As a result, there is significant potential to create a creative conversation between Muslims and non-Muslims about the character and message of Qur’an that attends to efflorescence of work by a wide range of scholars writing in Western languages in the past thirty years.
