It opens by reassuring the messenger of the importance of his role in guiding humanity. This is an early Makkan Surah revealed at a time when Muslims were being persecuted.

My Review panel was Sh Yasrab shah, Maulana Asif Ali, Mufti M Ismael, Hafiz Naveed Iqbal, Dr. To explain and present different meanings I have sparingly used footnotes to add value to the communicative process of translation, for conveying literal meanings and cross referencing. I have written a comprehensive Introduction to each Surah that highlights the period of revelation, the major themes and special passages. The headings will also help you to understand Allah’s speech as being clearly linked. Since the Quran was revealed according to the need of the time from 5 to 10 verses at any one time. These headings correspond to major themes presented in the text, they are not just attention grabbing but add to clarity of meaning, reflect its contents, specific topics that will help the reader to understand what Prof Tarif Khalidi has called “bursts of revelation”. Subject matter presented under Section headings
I hope this translation will move you to reflect on this powerful life changing revelation from our Creator. How successful I have been in providing a meaning that is clear, plain and contemporary is for you to judge. Plain contemporary English has been my goal, so I avoided archaic words, did not translate all Arabic idioms instead I used English idioms. I am therefore pleased to present my understanding of the text as I have learnt it from my eminent teachers, the previous prominent translators and illustrious commentators. What has been a source of consolation for me is the fact that Muslims regard only the Arabic Quran as the Quran, the translations are simply interpretations. My goal has been to translate the meaning of the divine message by being faithful and accurate in expressing the exact meaning of Quranic words by relying on classical Arabic dictionaries and commentaries of Quran. I hope this will help you to experience the eloquence and effective style of Divine words. Over the decades I have read and taught several translations of the glorious Quran in English and Urdu but felt a need for a fresh translation in plain English that is up to date both in its presentation and language. I have been a serious student of the glorious Quran for more than 40 years, memorising it, learning its language and finally studying the science of Tafsir and Hadith at Al Azhar University Cairo. I believe it will offer new insights and understanding for people living in a global village in the age of science and information technology. Preface Glorious Quran translated in plain English with titled sections for easy reading I have under taken this translation because I owe so much to the Quran, it has made my life meaningful and worth living.
