The Quran

This new rendering is the first of its kind, since it combines translation and exegesis: the author 'opens out' the verses to reveal some of the layers of meaning expounded by the Prophet and transmitted through the ages by his companions, family and the scholars who followed them. This new rendering of the Holy Quran into the English language is the first of its kind, since it is a combination of translation and exegesis in which the author 'opens out' the verses of the Holy Book to reveal some of the layers of meaning expounded by the Prophet and transmitted through the ages by the Prophet's companions, family and the scholars who followed them. The fruit of over thirty years of research into the principles of Quranic exegesis and hadith analysis, this work matches a depth of Arabic and Islamic learning with a mastery of English that is lucid and accessible while preserving the integrity of the original text.
