אודות

אני פרופסור אמריטוס בחוג ללימודי הערבית והאסלאם, ותחומי ההתמחות שלי הם הקוראן, פרשנות הקוראן והמסורת האסלמית הקדומה. בעת הזאת אני שוקד על חקר החומרים המקראיים והמדרשיים המשוקעים בקוראן, וזאת על סמך בדיקה מחודשת של טקסטים מקראיים ומדרשיים שטרם נדונו עד כה במחקר המודרני של הקוראן.

אשר לקורות החיים שלי ורשימת הפרסומים, ראו http://www.urirubin.com/publications.

ברשימה זו ניתן למצוא בין השאר את תרגום הקוראן לעברית במהדורה חדשה מתוקנת ומעודכנת.
