The Book Foundations essential mission is to bring to light the universal message of Islam as revealed in the Holy Quran and the lived example of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings upon him), as well as the finest elements of the Islamic tradition. The Book Foundation’s work is truly international in scope, with a sphere of operation embracing curriculum development, engagement in public discourse, creative arts sponsorship, and the publication of works which increase the public understanding of Islam. The Book Foundation also has the special purpose of disseminating the works of Muhammad Asad, notably The Message of the Qur’an, which is regarded by common consent as the best commentary on the Qur’an in the English language; The Message of the Qur’an has also been translated into Spanish and German, with other languages to imminently follow. Vision Statement We envision a system of education that awakens and develops innate human capacities under the light of Divine grace and guidance. In addition to the horizontal dimension of information and skills, we envision education where the vertical dimension is the primary axis of development, leading to a state of being characterized by spiritual awareness and human excellence. Mission Statement Our mission is to design and apply a curriculum in accordance with the teachings of the Holy Quran intended to integrate our understanding of God, the universe, and our own human nature. This curriculum would provide unparalleled opportunities in breadth and depth for the total and balanced development of every student in every sphere of learning--spiritual, moral, imaginative, intellectual, emotional and physical--directing all these aspects towards the attainment of a conscious relationship with the Divine, the ultimate purpose of mans life on earth.
