Publisher's Summary

  • Detailed commentary with extensive references to standard authorities, both classical and modern 
  • Comprehensive introduction deals with Islamic teachings and the collection and arrangement of the Holy Qur'an 

"There is no other translation or commentary of the Holy Qur'an in the English language to compete with Maulvi Muhammad Ali's masterpiece." (Al-Haj Hafiz Ghulam Sarwar, translator of the Holy Qur'an) 

"To deny the excellence of Maulvi Muhammad Ali's translation, the influence for good it has exercised and its proselytizing utility would be to deny the existence of the light of the sun." (Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadi, leader of Orthodox Muslim opinion in India) 

"...has all the merits of what is desired in a translation." (The Anjuman Himayat-e-Islam, Lahore, Pakistan)

What the critics say

"...by far the best text currently available in the English language...incontestably one of the finest interpretations of the scared scripture of Islam. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this translation to students and others seeking to understand the essence and epitome of the Quranic message." (Prof. T. Hargery, director, African Studies, Northeast Missouri State University, Kirksville) 

"It is certainly a work of which any scholar might legitimately be proud." (The Quest, London)

This book is NOT the Quran.

This book is NOT the Quran.
I bought this book because I wanted to learn,
more about the Quran and Islam.
I am NOT Jewish.
Verse’s from the Quran are quoted,
with very long interpretations of each verse.
After a few verse’s and interpretations,
the author starts with his ANTI-JEW bullsh**.
According to the author,
Jews are responsible for all the bad things in the world.
According to the author,
Jews are Sub-Human monkey’s and pigs.
After listening to this hateful Muhammadan Jihadi,
I learned all I needed to learn about the Quran and Islam.

Not what I was expecting.

I felt there are too many details. I just wanted to listen to the Holy Quran, not commentary.

the commentary is necessary for true understanding

at first I did not like the commentary, only because I did not have the knowledge of why it was there. I just wanted to speed through. BUT once I realized that commentary helped me truly digest the text. this was the only time I truly could not stop listening as I can see how everything resonates with current daily lives.. absolutely amazing!

In depth reading and commentary for a beginner

As an American with externally limited experience and knowledge of Islam, I found this book to be a great starting place. The commentary and language explanations helped give a deeper understanding than I could have ever hoped for. I do not claim to be Muslim, however I much better understand and respect for the faith based on this experience.

Luckily this title is also available in hard copy so I plan to re-read the physical copy so I can focus on the words of the Qur’an and less focus on the extensive notes and commentary.

problem with chapters

I'm very thankful that this english translation of this Qur'an exists. I would be even more thankful if they would fix the chapter list. It does not match up with the actual chapter that's being read.

without footnotes

I wish there was an option without footnotes. they are annoying. there should be an option to turn on only when desired. each and every one after a sentence is frustrating

Glitches

Satan is mad about the truth. Let the truth be heard! Better off purchasing the real thing.
