Reviews

'This translation conveys something of the beauty of the language of the Sacred Text as no other English translation has been able to do. It is a major addition to the corpus of Qur'anic translations.'
*Prof S. H. Nasr*

'These translations by a master of the English language who is also an eminent student of the Qur'an are of inestimable value.'
*Gai Eaton*

'In addition to his stunning classical English, Dr Martin Lings was both a master of Arabic and a brilliant scholar of Islam. This rare combination of skills made him the ideal candidate to translate the Qur'an.'
*Hamza Yusuf*
