ajiss-435		ajiss-435		14	.pdf	application/pdf	5967	246	58	In Qur’an Liberation, and Pluralism (p. 53), Esack suggests that the Qur’an is primarily addressed to the people of Hejaz living during the Prophet’s time. Atomistic readings of the Qur’an, in which individual Muslims pluck a particular verse because it speaks to them at that moment is fine for those particular individuals, since the purpose of such selections is not to find a master metaphor that renders the rest of Qur’an intelligible, but simply to find in a particular verse something that resonates with their current circumstances.	cache/ajiss-435.pdf	txt/ajiss-435.txt
