Scholarly Books Outlining Quran-Alone Beliefs?
-
Peace be with you all!
Have any Quranist scholars published books outlining Quran-alone beliefs such as salat, zakat, etc. with verses from the Quran interpreted in detail?
I know ultimately all of the answers are in the Quran, but sometimes it's tough to gather all aspects of a topic in one, or to even have time to study it as much as one desires.
Another issue is, I have a few elderly people interested in Quran-alone Islam, but they're not acquainted with the Internet and such at all. I have been printing out as much as I can, but it's tough as I am still learning and sometimes change my own beliefs within moments.
I've come across a few Quranist publications, but either they were too general and mostly for convincing hadithists of Quran-alone beliefs, or I found errors in them that I was fairly convinced were wrong. Either way, feel free to share what you've found and I'll sift through them as well.
Thank you all, and may peace be with you.

Have you read The Natural Republic? It's a classic, both for its contents as well as style and form. Edip Yuksel's Reformist Translation is also very good, it has a lot of essays and notes included that assist you in understanding a lot of things. Sometimes he is too critical about the traditionalists, which was not needed in my understanding, but overall it's a very good read. I just got my copy from Amazon last week, and am thoroughly enjoying it! -)

I have videos where I strive to bring all the information I know about in one (semi-entertaining) venue. Scripts are available for them if you want them, or if you want a DVD of them all, I can send one to you for free, no cost to you. All I need is your mailing address sent via PM. The DVD can (should) play on your DVD player or in your computer if you are not Region 1.
Study the Quran diligently, and do not depend on my opinion. Look to these as study guides, not as actual guidance. Always rely on Allah alone for guidance and explanation.

Peace, Ilyusha !
I shall check these books out, thank you. Do either have an index of sorts for locating ayahs regarding specific topics? Also, I have respect for Yuksel's extensive knowledge, but do not agree with the Code 19 belief. Is there any notable influence of it in his translation?
Peace.

Peace brother,
Thank you for those links. They may do myself more good than the elderly I was referring to however, as many do not even know how to work a DVD player. nope Physical books would be best.

Peace Eikonoklastes,
The Natural Republic is downloadable on this site, I don't remember about the Index as I saw it some time ago. Yuksel's translation has a comprehensive index at the end, and cross references are generously provided in the footnotes for not only other verses of related topics but also from the Bible !! It makes research more interesting and convenient, alhamdolillah. The references to 19 are there at few places in the notes, but not too prominent. Otherwise it is an objective and very analytical work, and the only thing it seems influenced by is "monotheism" !! -)
