The Qur'an: English translation and Parallel Arabic text

thick pages perfect for highlighting and writing without being see thru. overall beautiful quality

A Beautiful version of the book of sacred law. However, It is front to back and this just not right. Regardless of which market you aim at, you must NEVER toy with the Origin. It should be back to front. Just because we might not read that way, its not hard to show some respect. Saying that, it is actually very well written and the English interpretations are most helpful.

Amazing translation. Would’ve like bigger Arabic font.

Beautiful as described, very comprehensive and easy to understand

This book was given to me by a friend and came highly recommended. I asked foreign exchange students visiting from Kuwait about the quality of translation and multiple times was assured about the accuracy of the translation into English. Purchased (2) copies, provides great gifts to individuals interested in broadening their understanding of eastern religions.

Christ Saves, God is the Greatest. He never leaves me alone, even when I'm alone. Driven faith, Allah inspires me not the man. Translated version, in which I have no clue or point of reference. Peace, Love.

Of the dozens of English versions of the Noble Qur'an that I have sampled, by far this one by Abdel Haleem is the most smooth-reading. This edition also includes the parallel Arabic text. Other reviewers have noted the somewhat small size of the print, both English and Arabic, and it is small. But at the same time, I would say the print is exceptionally clear and therefore definitely usable. The layout of every page includes 15 lines of Arabic text, finishing each page with the end of a verse; the rendering into English is provided in full on the same page, for easy comparison. This hardback edition is fine-looking inside and out, partly owing to a sharp, colorful Arabesque dust jacket. The "used-very good-open box" volume that I chose from the seller awesomebooksusa was a great buy at less than half the price of a brand new one.

The book was in better condition, than described. I was unable to see any of the wear that was documented by the seller. The only way you can tell that it is not brand new is by the pages being slightly more yellow than if it was purchased new. The author gives important details that put the writings into context and that are helpful in understanding the Quran. The translation is easy to read and understand.
