This is a fairly literal, scholarly translation of the Koran -with commentary. It is easier to understand than other translations of the Koran I have tried to read. It gives historical context and excerpts from supporting documents to help elucidate the intended meanings. Though I found the prophet's continual complaining a bit grating at times, I was very gratified to read in black and white the truth of what I have heard some moderate Moslems say: that the Prophet Mohamed was much more merciful and generous (especially to women) than many modern day people who call themselves his followers.
Thisis worthwhile reading for non-Arabic speaking people who want to get a 'handle' on what the Koran actually says! ( )
