The Qur'an

Complete and unabridged, this elegantly designed English-language hardcover edition of The Qur’an features vibrant endpapers.

The Qur’an is the central religious text of Islam, believed by Muslims around the world to be the literal word of God as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad by the angel Gabriel nearly fourteen hundred years ago. The 114 chapters, or suras, of the Qur’an contain the narratives, moral principles, and tenets central to Islamic belief. They reveal God’s plan for man. In addition to its religious significance, The Qur’an is widely believed to be the finest work of Arabic literature.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s English-language edition is one of the most esteemed and faithful to the original text. This beautifully jacketed hardcover edition is worthy of becoming a family keepsake.
