Translation of the Qur'an by Thomas B. Irving. It is a commonplace fact that the Qur'an is untranslatable into any language, because its form and content are both devine...But it can bring to light many an aspect of meaning which has escaped our attention in the past. The present translation is novel on this account. It makes refreshing reading even after all the other translations have been read.

The Qur'an, The Noble Reading

The Mother Mosque Foundation

<p>The Quran is a living document and could be considered untranslatable because each time one returns to the Arabic text; one finds new meanings and fresh ways of interpreting it. The author's aim has been to remain scrupulously faithful to the Arabic text and still create a version, which represents good American English prose and can be used confidently by English-speaking people. Here the author has attempted to study it from within and duplicate the terse yet vibrant quality of the original Qur'anic message, to take a fresh look at the original text and explore it for new content and present-day application. In this respect the present translation breaks new ground; making refreshing reading even after all the other translations have been read.</p>
