English Translation of Qur'an

[doorster]

No I do not own it but had downloaded a single page from fonsvitae.com some time ago (I did not like to post link for obvious reasons)


edit
I do have Tafsir of al-kahf by Abul Ala Maududi if you lke

 

[YusufNoor]

There is not much commentary.Sorry, but I was unable to find any example pages. I actually had a hard time finding where one could buy a copy anyway. If you had an ayat in mind, I copy type it into a post.

now that i think of it, could you post Al Fatiha when you have time?

and Al-Ikhlas?

unless you'd like to post Suratul Kahf?

i only ask about Al Kahf because i try to read it every Jummua'ah BUT in the English language. :-[

1. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds;
2. The All-Merciful, the Compassionate;
3. Master of the Day of Judgment.
4. You alone do we worship, and Your help alone do we seek.
5. Guide us to the Straight Path;
6. The path of those whom You have favored;
7. Not of those who have incurred Your wrath, nor of those who are astray.

and Al-Ikhlas?

1. Say: "He Allah, is One!
2. Allah, the eternally Besought!
3. He has not begotten, nor been begotten,
3. And equal to Him there is none."

1. Praise be to Allah who has sent down the Book to His servant and has not placed in it any crookedness.
2. [But has made it] straight, to give warning of stern punishment from Him, and to proclaim to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have an excellent recompense,
3. Wherein they will remain forever.
4. And to warn those who say that Allah has chosen a son,
5. Of this they have no knowledge, nor [had] their fathers. Dreadful is the word that comes out of their mouths. They utter nothing but a lie.
6. It may be that you will torment your soul with grief for their sake, if they do not believe in this Message.

Is there a certain passage that you would really like me to quote?

 

[جوري]

is this what you are looking for?

Is this by Muhammad Asad? the former Leopold weiss?

I think his is pretty easy, given that the origial especially Pickthal was a British (Allah yer7amo) and his language is a bit Archaic compared to ASAD who used almost standard American English..

Anyhow, here is an abridged version of ASAD it is for free, before you commit to purchasing it from amazon, where the members have given it a five star review

No, it is The Majestic Qur’an by a Translation Committee of Ali Ozek, Nureddin Uzunoglu, and Tevfik R. Topuzoglu and edited by Abdal Hakim Murad, Mostafa al-Badawi and Uthman Hutchinson.

JazakAllah Khayr,

how about Ayatal Kursi?

 

[MustafaMc]

JazakAllah Khayr,

how about Ayatal Kursi?

Allah! There is no god but He, the Living, the Sustainer. Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him. His is what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. Who can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and behind them, and they grasp only that part of His knowledge He wills. His Pedestal embraces the heavens and the earth, and it tires Him not to uphold them both. He is the High, the Formidable.
