Interpretation of the meanings of the Noble Quran, with Arabic text, in the modern English language.
It is unique, remarkable and distinguished for its crystal clear rendering — and this nine-volume edition is the fullest form in which it is published.
What the Nine Volumes Give You
Not merely a translation with footnotes, but a full tafsir running alongside the text: the circumstances of revelation, the meanings of difficult passages, the rulings derived, and the relevant Ahadith set beside the verses they explain.
A one-volume translation tells you what a verse says. Nine volumes tell you what it means, why it was revealed, and what has been derived from it — which is the difference between reading the Quran and studying it.
The Translation
Translated and compiled by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan and Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al-Hilali — the rendering that has become the most widely distributed English translation of the Quran in the world, and the one used at the Haramain.
It follows the methodology of Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jama'ah and is based on authentic classical sources, with the commentary summarized from At-Tabari, Al-Qurtubi and Ibn Kathir, supported by relevant Ahadith from Sahih Al-Bukhari.
Who It Is For
Serious students, imams, teachers and anyone building a permanent Islamic library in English. It is a reference set rather than a reading copy, and for that purpose there is no substitute.
