About this ebook
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.

It's an interesting interpretation, however it is rather verbose in the rendering. This may be a good thing, if this is your first Quran reading. However as all non Arabic-literate Muslims know: the understanding comes from the quantity of Quran interpretations read - this my 14th, FTR.What idiot wrote, "have the real Quran next to you as you read." Hilarious. Is the person for real, and (not or) really bloody stupid? May Allah help them find their 'brain activate' button.

Not a real Quran but can be used as it makes most meaning more clear. If you read this, make sure you have a real Quran to read with it because it is translated and written by a shia and shite. They added extra verses are not in the Quran. I'm not sure if they meant to make it more clear for people or intentionally set out to distort it. Just don't take it as a real Quran because it's not.
