In the latest installment of IQSA’s Review of Qur’anic Research 1, no. 3, Mohamad Ballan (University of Chicago) reviews Jonathan A. C. Brown’s ambitious new book, Misquoting Muhammad: The Challenge and Choice of Interpreting the Prophet’s Legacy (London: Oneworld, 2014), which explores the relationship between the Qurʾan and Ḥadīth and the various subjective ways that Sunni ʿulamāʾ in medieval and modern times have selectively appropriated the scriptures in their debates.
