The Islamic tradition has always held animals in high esteem. This original book examines the status of animals in the Qur'an, in which they are portrayed as spiritual, moral and accountable beings. The study challenges the prevalent view of man's superiority over animals and suggests new ways of interpreting the Qur'an.
