Description : 

First published in 1930, Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall’s The Meaning of the Glorious Koran was the first attempt ever by a British Muslim to provide the English-reading public with a translation of Islam’s holy Scripture based on authoritative sources. Pickthall was keenly aware of the awesomeness of the task that faced him.


The Quran, a book which brings glad tidings to mankind along with divine admonition, stresses the importance of man's discovery of truth on both spiritual and intellectual planes. Every book has its objective and the objective of the Quran is to make man aware of the Creation plan of God. That is, to tell man why God created this world; what the purpose is of settling man on earth; what is required from man in his pre-death life span, and what he is going to confront after death.

A New Modern Translation [by Muhammad Isa Waley].of Picthall's Glorious Quran is now available.
