Volume 1: This book provides, in two volumes, an English translation of the Holy Quran, accompanied by the original Arabic text of the Quran with a transliteration of the Arabic text into English language characters. The transliteration will enable those who cannot read the Arabic text to recite it by following its representation in the English alphabet. To help the ordinary reader, the transliteration shows the sounds of the Arabic letters and words through English letters, without employing any diacritical marks used in formal, academic transliteration. The hyphen is used to separate syllables. Underlining is used under two successive letters to represent doubled letters (as in inna) or when the two letters stand for a single letter of the Arabic alphabet (as in kh or sh). The transliteration and the Arabic text are laid out side-by-side in two columns, with each verse beginning on a new line. The English translation is provided after each "section" in case of the long chapters (i.e., chapters up to ch. 80) and after the entire chapter in case of short chapters (i.e., chapters 80 to the end).

Contains a reprinting of the Muslim book of the Qur'an with the original Arabic text and the English translations in side-by-side columns.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION: The English translation of the Holy Qur'an has been placed under the original Arabic script of the Qur'an without disrupting the page order. The English translation has been clearly placed under the sentence and sign.

Translation passages were given to the New Muslim and Non-Muslim high school and college students for reading under the supervision of various Ulema (scholars). After reading, the person was asked to explain as to what he/she understood from the passage. If his/her understanding was the same as is in the Arabic Text of the Holy Qur'an then we concluded that we have been successful in conveying the Divine Message properly. If his/her understanding was different than what the Qur'anic verses were stating, we kept on rewording the translation until those verses were understood properly. It was tremendous patience on part of the participants. May Allah reward them all.

(3) Understandability: There are no foot notes to refer and no commentary or lengthy explanations to read.
