The Holy Qur'an: English Translation, Commentary and Notes with Full Arabic Text

Seriously This is so wonderful quran that is perfectly printed and packed and the translation and additional helpful information which helps to the clear understanding of the quran, The font size is not that small Its clearly readable for my eyes, Without any doubt go for it.

This is the very good book but this is very fat and week and the latter is is very small if this book divided into 2 parts then it will be very good book accept of this it is very cheap and best book my mission is not to dimarlized the book i am not talking about the knowledge but i am talking about the physical overview if your attaination is to seek the knowledge then go for it

Amazing translation and paper quality is ok... Delivery was a bit late though.... the fonts are small so you should have a good eyesight to read this 🤭

1862 pages makes it a thick book... could have been divided into two or three volumes for ease of readers. The font size and typeface are very small makes it difficult to read on rehal. Too early to comment on the tafsir but the early signs look very encouraging. Logic and rationale seem to be the basis and reflect a strong foundation of the interpretations!

Its one of the best English translation of the Holy Qur'an, the only revelation from Almighty God in its original text. Although the biblical English may be tough for some reader, but the running commentaries and notes are very very useful. Every human being should read & practice the Qur'an in his/her life. And for that purpose, for the non-Arabs who know English, its one of the best option.

After reading quran I have gained several knowledge and understanding about Islam. One must read Qur'an in their local language or in English to understand better if you don't know arabic meaning

Please read my review and also, take my advice, "do not buy Quran online, It is a holy book and needs to be handled by pure hands". The agent delivering the book to me kept his bag on the road before removing Quran from it and handing it over to me. This is just not right. I received the book's cover page in blue color. I love this green colored Quran. Also, I was reluctant buying it as it was written by some Shia writer Abdullah Yusuf Ali. Anyways, after receiving book, I found that valuable translation is 2 words, unwanted commentary has filled the book. It talks about the moon and sun gods, which a muslim has nothing to do with. The commentary drifts from the actual topic to all the other topics of the world except Quran. I'm going to return the book.

The binding isnt impressive, the Qur'an written on the cover comes off. The pages and print are bad, the contents are partially printed and too small in size. Arabic lines aren't written in English only explained in English. Poor Quality.

..on the Holy Qur'an. This book contains not only the original text in Arabic but also the translation from Abdullah Yusuf Ali and commentary. It is an excellent 'encyclopedia'. The Qur'an is a concentrated book and to find Ayah (Verses) on particular topics a very good index is available at the back of this book. I would recommend it to any person wishing to increase their knowledge of the lessons and guidance provided by our Almighty, All-Powerful Creator in the Qur'an.

This Qu'ran is amazing and very big, I am just learning about Islam and find this version the best, Abdullah Yusuf Ali's commentary is so easy to understand, he really explains the differences between Arabic words translated into English. He is showing me how beautiful Islam is 😊 I look forward to reading it all, it will be a book I treasure and will use in the future as guidance. If you are curious about Islam or want to learn about it then this book and version is for you. It is written with no bias at all, and is written so all people can enjoy the teachings of Islam. And any of u with a sterotype of a Muslim should also make sure they read it before passing judgement on Islam, because I can guarantee it will change your mind. It is a book of Peace and Beauty ❤️ the print is not to the standard of European print, but this dosn't effect how it can be read, it just means u need a good light, the words are very clear and very easy to read it is just a bit lighter in colour. I have throughly enjoyed reading a few chapters with no problem at all, it is a joy to own and read 😊

I'm giving this product 5 stars despite the fact that this publisher sometimes has a problem with quality assurance. Some customers believe they are receiving a used book, and sometimes these books get sent back, but the publisher is not in a Western country, nor are some of their customers, so this company can't keep up with the quality of many Western publishers. Besides, I wanted a copy of Abdullah Yusuf Ali's classic translation with commentary. If I purchase from other publishing houses, I would end up with a better print, but I'd have a revised commentary from a Wahabist perspective, which I don't care to own. I want a true Sunni Muslim commentary, and if that means I have to buy from a publisher whose products are sometimes (not always) substandard, so be it. I am a 12er Shia Muslim, and many of our scholars believe this translation is worth having. I enjoy the translation and commentary even if it is was made for our Sunni brothers and sisters, and I can live with the differences of opinion. I consider Abdullah Yusuf Ali's translation with commentary a 20th century Sunni classic which is just a useful today. It is my hope Allah willing that a publishing house with good quality control, committed to publishing true Sunni works, would obtain the rights to publish this classic. The cover and font is fine (although some readers may have some trouble reading sections with smaller print), but the printing itself has problems. This may be an annoyance, but one I can live with. I also recommend M. M. Pickthal's translation of the Quran, which is the first translation I ever read, and also a Sunni translation. Some Evangelical Fundamentalist Christian anti-Muslim books in the 1980s portrayed the Quran to be a book that was hard to understand in translation, and that the revelations in the Quran can't be placed in history. However, Pickthal included a short Biography of the Prophet (SAWW) and explained that there were early and late Meccan and Madinan revelations, so this knowledge for me refuted those anti-Muslim tracts I had read when I was a fundamentalist Christian in my twenties. Abdullah Yusuf Ali's commentary gives more insights on the Surahs than does Pickthal. My favorite 12er Shia Muslim translation of the Quran is the one by S V Mir Ahmed Ali, with commentary. There is of course a little bit of a difference of opinion on translation and on the dating of a few Surahs, but I believe it is good for knowledgeable lay Sunni and Shia Muslims to compare and contrast these differences. This leads to better understanding between Muslims. Actually, we have more in common than we might think. Unless you want your bookshelf to have only the best looking books on the shelves (which is not a bad idea in areas of one's home that may be seen by visitors), please don't pass up this classic. Remember, you can always keep this Quran by your nightstand by your bed. I keep mine with my S V Mir Ahmed Ali Quran translation, our 1st Imam Ali Ibn Talib's Peak of Eloquence, our 4th Imam's As-Sahiffa As-Sajjadiyyah (the Psalms of Islam), our 6th Imam Jaffar As-Saddiq's Lantern of the Path, and the Forty Hadith of Imam Nawawi (which I read before I became a Muslim and have always liked since). Enjoy! Addendum: Besides the commentaries, there are Appendices after certain chapters that give additional information that has bearing on the Surah. One excellent example is Appendix VIII which supplements the commentary on the Verse of Lights, Surah 24:35 by giving a summary of various sections of Imam Ghazali's book, Miskat-ul Anwar (The Niche of Lights), as well as the contrasting Verse of Darkness, Surah 24:40. These Appendices enhance the commentary. You won't find these gems in the newer additions.

This is a freaking tome!!!! A monster of a book -- binding seems to be holding up which is impressive. Best thing about this printing is the sentence by sentence translation with the original text and the full commentary at the bottom of every page.Out of the three translated volumes I own this replaces them all.

The print quality was very poor. Writing is also very small.
