And what is your destination?” in the light of the Risale-i Nur: a profoundly spiritual, insightful, and intellectual commentary on the Qur'an by Bediuzzaman Said Nursi (1878-1960): one of the most remarkable scholars of Islam in the modern era who distinguished himself with extraordinary memory and intellect, sincere devotion and spirituality, and an excellent grasp of both the Islamic tradition and the modern world.
