Books that mention The Koran (5)

On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History by Thomas Carlyle: “It was during these wild warfarings and strugglings, especially after the Flight to Mecca, that Mahomet dictated at intervals his Sacred Book, which they name _Koran_, or _Reading_, "Thing to be read."”
