The Meaning of The Glorious Koran
Translator - Mohammed Marmaduke Pickthall
This Is A Translation Of The Holy Koran
The Koran (Qur.an) is regarded by Muslims as the word of God (Allah) as
revealed to the prophet Muhammad. It is divided into 114 chapters (surahs),
arranged roughly by length. This version, The Meaning of the Glorious Koran,
is a widely used English translation of the Koran by a Muslim Englishman.
Many Muslims, however, including Pickthall, believe that true translations
of the Koran from the original Arabic are impossible, and see translations
into other languages only as useful interpretations. Summary by Leon Mire
Personally I find this translation somehow good. Of course it can never
equal the beauty of The Book but yet for anyone willing to have a tiny
insight into the book, this translation is worthy of interest and does
grasp the essential meaning of the verses.
