I tried reading three other english translations of Quran and, while they meant well, the cultural notes or explanations actually crowded the text and/or forced the translators to alter meanings just to fit things on to pages. But this translation doesn't muddle around with extra features: Just a clear and classical toned translation of Allah's words. Simply presented, easy to read. First time reading Quran cover to cover and being able to finish without translation frustration. ( ) THE MEANING OF HOLY QUR'AN PUBLISHER'S NOTE Al Hamd ii Allah (Praise be to Allah), this Revised Edition is a culmination of experiences in the last two decades in publishing translations of the meaning of the Qur'an in several languages. With the Grace of Allah, amana publications a subsidiary of Amana Corporation has succeeded in publishing this great work of the late 'Abdullah Yusuf Al, revised for the first time after his death with the highest standard of scholarship and authenticity that it deserves. About eight years ago, the work for this edition began when we started the selection of the most recognised and authentic available English translation of the eaning of the Qur'an. The selection committee, comprised of highly reputable Muslim scholars, decided on the work of Abdullah Yüsuf 'AlT and solicited opinions and criticisms from Islamic institutions and scholars around the world. A number of committees reviewed all the responses carefully, examined the text meticulously ated the material and refined the commentaries. The last complete review was undertaken by, the late Ismail Raji al Faruqi, who was then President of the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) in the United States of America Guided by its own commitment to serve the Qur'an, amana publications undertook this tremendous task, and in cooperation with the IIIT completed this honorable work, amana publications and IIIT established an editorial board whose effort was to implement the final recommendations of the committees and to concentrate on the manuscript preparation, overall editorial changes, and revisions in style and format (discussed in the Preface to the Revised Edition). All praise be to Allah for enabling us to serve the Qur'an by making available this Revised Edition. We acknowledge with deep appreciation the efforts of IIIT and all those who helped produce this monumental work of 'Abdullah Yüsuf AIT. May Allah bless his soul and reward him generously; wa al Hamd li Allah Rabb al Alamin (All Praise and Gratitude is due to Allah, the Lord and Sustainer of the Worlds) I was blown away by the scholoarship in this volume. I can't speak to the quality of the translation, and what slaveofOne says makes sense to me, but the number and extent of cross references into the Christian literature were surprising. As well as I can judge such things, this appears to be a very good volume for comparative religion purposes. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
