Of all the existing translation and commentaries of the Qur’an in English, Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s version is perhaps the most popular and widely read. Its chaste English prose and scholarly notes and appendices, have made it a major landmark in the Qur’anic interpretations. It has enjoyed such authority that both scholars and students have widely used this as their reference ever since it was first published in 1934. This new edition, in modern English, printed on thin paper, comes in a new readable format, beautifully typeset in large font sizes both Arabic and English, with footnotes and commentaries.
