Description
This Arabic / English side-by-side translation of the Koran (Al-Qur'an) brings together one of the best known translations in the English language - Maulana Muhammad Ali's classic text, juxtaposed with the original Arabic Koran.
Mohamed A. 'Arafa, Ph.D. introduces the Koran with a detailed overview of Islam, Islamic law (the Shari'a) and the beliefs of Muslims. His Introduction examines Islam as a religion as well as current issues that Muslims face, practical and policy considerations in addressing terrorism and Islamic law as a positive legal system and a divine legal system.
After careful examination, Maulana Muhammad Ali's translation was selected due to its careful fidelity in accurately conveying the meanings of the Arabic while maintaining fluidity in the English. The Arabic text contains all diacritical marks to aid students to master pronunciation in Koran recitation.
