Fazlur Rahman is one of the greatest researchers of the Islamic philosophy. The "MAJOR THEMES OF THE QUR'AN" is one of his most important essays to obviate the contrast between the Islam and modern world. The holistic attitude of this book is againts two other approaches; one of them is the way which most of orientalists historicaly evaluate the Quran, which means they never read it as an oracle book but they just concider the historical events of it with an outside and non-sympathetic perspective or how they suffice cheking the Arab literature when it comes to study the terms of Quran. The other one is the common muslims "line by line cheking" way that comprises a partial and non-holistic point of view which leads to neglect the basic consepts and orientations of Quran ,  which all of them make sense in that generality context. In fact this book is an effort in order to remark the defects of two mentioned ways in Quran study.
