The Integrated Encyclopedia of the Qur’ān (IEQ) is a reference work based on fourteen centuries of Islamic scholarship on the Qur’ān. It brings to the English-speaking world a unique blend of classical and contemporary scholarship in an accessible and reader-friendly format. Its potential readers include academic scholars, whether specializing in the field of Qur’ānic studies or working more generally in other disciplines, and Muslims and non-Muslims looking for an authentic source of in-depth and scholarly knowledge on the Qur’ān and its message.

IEQ draws its entries from the thematic structure of the Qur’ān itself. All concepts, places, and persons mentioned in the Qur’ān have been covered in over 625 entries. It employs English-language lemmata with certain modifications and its intensive cross-referencing makes article location easy.
