dear Dr. Fatoohi,
by happenstance i ran into your website, which is a rich feeding trough for me, as a student of the noble Qur'an.
first, i'm very pleased to meet you, and i'm extremely impressed with your intellectual output of productive and scholarly works.
second, i also find remarkable the area of your research and concentration, a quadrant in the historical sacred timeline that has rarely been approached by other competent scholars, past and present.
my best wishes to you in your research of the ancient past--events, places and people, and to make them relevant and meaningful in the context of scriptural and religious studies in this modern period.
may your noble efforts be highly rewarded.
sincerely,
mohamad k yusuff
