- This video compares The Study Quran to two English translations of the Quran: I compare "The (new) Study Quran" by Harper Collins (Edited by Dr. Sayyed Nasr), The Meaning of the Quran" by Muhammad Asad, and "The Holy Quran: Text and Commentary" by Yusuf Ali.
This is Part 1: The second video compares the Study Quran with two study Bibles currently on the market. It is at • The STUDY QUR'AN compa...

Disclaimer: As a western, non-Arabic speaker/reader and as a non-Muslim, I do not address the issue of the inspiration or veracity of the Qur'an. I am not qualified to do so. I am simply seeing to help other non-Arabic speakers/readers and students decide which English Qur'an might be a good basis to begin to study Islam and the Qur'an. One problem I see is that many Muslims worldwide are uneducated about what Christianity and our texts teach, and likewise, most Christians and westerners are ignorant of Islam and its teachings (esp. within it's context).
Please do not post inflammatory or argumentative posts/comments below as they will be deleted. It is not my purpose to argue or insult religion as this is against my own Christian faith as a follower of Jesus. Debate and argument has its proper place in both faith traditions, but the comments below are not that place.
Positives:
1.) A vast array of additional material otherwise not accessible to English readers.
2.) Done by Muslims and relying on a broad Islamic faith tradition and reflecting various schools within that faith.
3.) Fair to other faiths/struggles historically with the Unity of God as revealed by Jesus Christ, and as understood/struggled with by His early followers.
4.) Good concise book introductions that help describe the setting and historical basis of each surah (where known).
5.) Beautiful use of color, fonts, font size, and binding/cover
Negatives:
1.) No Arabic text alongside the English.
2.) No cross references (I touch on this more in my companion video to this one comparing the Study Quran with two popular study Bibles on the market) to better put into context controversial passages.
3.) The paper is too thin for daily use and for students/others who may not have proper respect for religious texts.
4.) Expensive at $60.
May Allah guide you to Islam. Thanks for this video! :)
In my opinion and experience The Message of The Quran by Muhammad Asad is the best. It's refreshing and intellectually stimulating.
The translation by Yusuf Ali is the best. He was a sincere believer and practitioner and this shows in his translation and his commentary. His commentary is not a dry academic exercise but is one that touches the heart.
Clear Quran is better and modern English. Yusuf Ali used old archaic English
@@sharkiealami7817Indeed. I have three different versions and The Clear Quran is by far the best.
@@sharkiealami7817 Which is better. Arabic resembles Archaic English more than modern English. You will get a more truer experience.
@@imraneticBetter if you aren’t a native English speaker or have low reading comprehension. Otherwise Yusuf Ali’s translation and notes are superior. He even quotes authors from western civ like Shakespeare and others.
I thoroughly enjoyed your research and will definitely be hitting the like & subscribe icons
The Yusuf Ali translation is my favourite because of the footnotes underneath
I had a formal English education, in a country where the English language is one of the official ones. So the Yusuf Ali translation resonated very well with me, considering that he makes references to certain English poets of whose works I'm familiar with.
A very comprehensive review, many thanks!
It's Tomoe River paper which is used to be able to add volume to the book without weight. Yes, depending on the weight of the paper, it can have a lot of ghosting, not much, or none at all.
Muhammad Asad and Yusuf Ali were alive and doing this about a century ago when they wrote in archaic English.
thanks for the video. just got my Study Qur'an recently. deserves more views/likes.
A true follower of Jeus would be muslim. In the bible read only what Jesus said. He is not Greater than the Father. Every miracle he performed was by the will of the Father. He was nothing but a messenger and prophet of His Time
Christians do not believe he IS greater than the father so...
Didn't Jesus also mention that He and the Father are one? And from the Islamic perspective, God isn't viewed a paternal figure.
@Truth What is a "paul christian"? you mean just christian. Christians do follow god because Jesus IS God
@Truth of course you have to believe this because otherwise your religion is wrong.
Jesus existed before Abraham ("before Abraham was, I am"), he and god the father are united and equal. He raised the dead and cast out demons. He forgave sins (something only GOD can do). He lived a sinless life (which no mere man ever did, not even prophets) and was born of a virgin mother. Even Islam believes this but you reject part of him Because accepting christ would mean rejecting the message of your prophet.
@Truth you reject the scripture so you can use your own book which was written many many many centuries after Jesus walked the earth and after he had already built his church on earth. You are not a Christian because no follower of christ would believe a perfect man with a perfect message would need a succesor like your prophet who was not sinless, who did not raise people from the dead, nor cast out devils nor did any of the great miracles that christ did. Christ was perfect. Why follow up something perfect with something not perfect?
I heard Dr Seyyed Hossein Nasr state that the lack of Arabic text was a compromise with the publisher re size and cost. It would have to be two volume and there was no appitite for a two volume publication. He mentioned that a new volume with Arabic is being worked on but the compromise with this one is the commentary. I do prefer the think vellum of the Study Quran, more text for study, and it also reminded me of the thin paper of old bibles. Yes. typography in the Study Quran is beautiful too.
You said "I am not a Muslim, I am a follower of Jesus"
Jesus was a Muslim. Muslims are the followers God's prophets like Jesus (pbuh). He prayed with his head on the floor like Muslims. (Matthew 26:39) Jesus never claimed divinity and never claimed to be God. In fact he was such a humble messenger like the other messengers that he even refused to be called 'good'. (Luke 18:18)
Prophet Mohammad pbuh was also predicted in the Bible (John 16:12-13) 'Muslim' in Arabic means anyone who submits themselves to God.
Jesus was more than a mere prophet.
@@huskyfaninmass1042 claiming that God had to go into man form to convey his message is an insult to God. You can love Jesus but attributing him divinity is not monotheism.
God didn't come to earth only to convey His message. God's perfect justice required a perfect sacrifice. Jesus is that perfect sacrifice. The sacrifice of animals by the Israelites and Muslims are imperfect sacrifices. Coming to earth as a man is indeed not befitting the glory of God but God's love for man is so great that He did this for us. Allah of the Quran lacks this great love.
@@huskyfaninmass1042 sir can you read quran than know well sir please only one time read quran in English please do it
I understand what you mean, but I'm sure, too, that you understood what this reviewer meant when he said that.
There is a leather-bound version. I bought one directly from the publisher. It is high quality.
Thank you for this comment. I was unsure whether to purchase the hardcover or leather.
Man how i wish you knew Urdu. Theres such precious work in that language. The best is Maulana Amin Ahsan Islahi's 9 volume tafseer work. It takes into consideration the extraordinary and undeniable arrangement and organisation of Surahs which all tafseers have ignored. This tafseer destroys the myth that Quran is a disorganised collection of Surahs. Without knowing that arrangement message of Quran often gets lost. Please find out more. Thanks brother.
Ubayd Mir who cares for Urdu. We don't embrace islam to learn Urdu lol Arabic is the language of the Quran, and of all the major tafaseer and hadeeth collections and commentaries. It we want to understand the Quran and sunnah we must learn Arabic - the language of the Quran, and of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه و سلم . Hope you have learned Arabic now. Best wishes.
@@abdulwahabjag lol why should i read a wahabi tafsir rather than someone from AHLUS Sunnah
It's being translated in English by Dr Shahzad Saleem.
Askamialaikom. How much do you Urdu plz …?
Thank you for this review! I'm going to watch your second video on this study Quran as I found this first video very helpful.
First impressions of this book:
Can a Quran be a Quran if there is no Arabic? I think it wise that its title specifies it is a study Quran rather than a devotional volume. I'm unfamiliar with the Quran, but very familiar with study Bibles: Though it was a controversial decision, I think they made a wise decision to leave out the original Arabic: study Bibles don't include the original languages and this seems to be a similar tool written to a similar audience: people who understand English and wish to gain a greater understanding of these holy scriptures without needing to learn the original languages they're written in. There's no telling how many pages this book may've been if the Arabic had been included, too....
I like that the print is line-matched.
I like that there are maps and a glossary included.
I'm unsure how I feel about the archaic-sounding translation as I haven't read it myself, but I know I prefer Bible translations that leave off Elizabethan sounding word choices. I'm trying to keep my knee-jerk apprehension at bay.
I couldn’t understand anything in Bible. I tried two times.
Glad to see you interested in my reglion bro

saheeh international quran also recommended by zakir naik 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
thank you so much interesting episode
But Dr zakir naik Also said about Abdul ullah yousaf Ali.....❤✋
If The Study Quran had not been recommended to me as a Quran translation with commentary for both Sunni and Shia Muslims, I would have probably liked it more when it first purchased the book. The articles are very good. The translation seemed to be fine.
Yes, there are 12er Shia notes, yes. But, the commentary for Surah Amasa is clearly definitely Sunni. I don't mind an eclectic commentary for a Quran I purchased mainly for the articles.
Of the three translations in your review, the original Abdullah Yusuf Ali is the one I used the most of the three translations.
Actually, as a 12er Shia Muslim, the translation with commentary I prefer is the SV Mir Ahmed Ali translation with commentary by Agha Plots and others.
@@AmericanShia786 contradiction
I've been looking for a large Qur'an with urdu script and colour coded tajweed rules and English translation but so far no luck. Can you recommend any please?
Moulana Yusuf Ali's translation is more poetic than the other two.
It is also more authentic ☑️☪️
hello, where can i find his translation?
Brother please tell me Name the third one??
1= Muhammar Asad
2=MUlana yusuf Ali
3 =Who is Number three.........?
The study Quran............. Translation name??

I am non Muslim I want to read Quran for casual purpose and adopt some things I like it also?
I am very curious why Islam is fastest growing religion in world
The best English translation Quran is from King Fahad Complex Publication of Madinah al Munawwarah.
Mas Gonderawi Sugar coat for what? The only thing that needs sugar coating is you ethiopi raw meat eaters
only Arabic text recitation is quran everything else is just simply individual understandings of the oral Arabic quran
Yes I understand, Allah chose the worst language there was to give his last message.
+Boutros Farook lol nicely said
The same thing is true for any translation. A translation of the Hebrew Bible to English is only really the translators interpretation of the text. A translation of the Chinese Tao Te Ching is also partly the translators interpretation.
So all powerful all knowing God, made a book that only 5 percent of the worlds population can truly understand, wow, Allah is an imbecile.
Boutros Farook because you just don't understand arabic it means its bad? Dude arabic is called.the miracle language its very diverse and its very beautiful language no one can read you must learn it even arabd themselves dont know every word in arabic every thing has more than 3 words in arabic it shows how diverse arabic is and quran wouldn't be quran if it's not in arabic so learn before speaking please
I found “The Gracious Quran” by Ahmad Zaki Hammad as one of the best translations of the Qur’an.
I never heard about that….
I have read through quite a bit of The Study Quran. I prefer Yusuf Ali's edition. I find Yusuf Ali's edition to be the most authentic, because I feel that The Study Quran is a more westernized edition; one example is that Allah seems to be used less and God is used in place, whereas it is the opposite in Yusuf Ali's edition of The Holy Quran.
Eclectic Reader
If it's a translation shouldn't Allah be translated as God?
Whenever English speakers read Quran and see Allah instead of God they may think Allah is a different Arab God.
Just read the commentary on Surat al-Fatihah, you'll find this was explained. And the Name "Allah"
Allah is God, it’s just refers to God more often for the wider audience.
Pickthall is the best
Completely accurate is Pickthall
Thanks for this mashallah.
Are you a muslim? because you said i am a flower of jesus because even jesus was muslim(submitter to the will of God).
Said Muhammad- the speaker stated he is a follower of Jesus and not a Muslim. Jesus was definitely not a Muslim, he was a Jew. Just because someone reads the Quran, does not mean they will automatically want to convert to Islam. The Quran contains many problematic passages for those that follow the Christian religion.
@Truth if you are following Jesus then keep his commandments which Muslims don't really do or take Jesus words, seriously.
Jesus said, “If ye love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15)
Repent
“From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matthew 4:17).
Follow Me
“And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19).
Rejoice
“Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you” (Matthew 5:11-12).
Let Your Light Shine
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 5:16).
Honor God’s Law
“Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill” (Matthew 5:17).
Be Reconciled
“Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath aught against thee; leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift” (Matthew 5:23-25).
Do Not Lust
“But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell” (Matthew 5:28-30).
Keep Your Word
“Let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil” (Matthew 5:37).
Go the Second Mile
“Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: but I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away” (Matthew 5:38-42).
Love Your Enemies
“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?” (Matthew 5:44-46).
Be Perfect
“If ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect” (Matthew 5:46-48).
Practice Secret Disciplines
“. . . When thou doest thine alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: that thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. . . . When thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. . . . When thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face; that thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly” (Matthew 6:1-18).
Lay Up Treasures
“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:19-21).
Seek God’s Kingdom
“Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33).
Judge Not
“Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?” (Matthew 7:1-3).
@Truth Do Not Cast Pearls
“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you” (Matthew 7:6).
Ask, Seek, Knock
“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened” (Matthew 7:7-8).
Do Unto Others
“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets” (Matthew 7:12).
Choose the Narrow Way
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:13-14).
Beware of False Prophets
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?” (Matthew 7:15-16).
Pray for Laborers
“The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest” (Matthew 9:37-38).
Be Wise as Serpents
“Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves” (Matthew 10:16).
Fear Not
“Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:28).
Hear God’s Voice
“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear” (Matthew 11:15).
Take My Yoke
“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light” (Matthew 11:28-30).
Honor Your Parents
“For God commanded, saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, he that curseth father or mother, let him die the death” (Matthew 15:4).
Beware of Leaven
“Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees” (Matthew 16:6).
Deny Yourself
“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?” (Luke 9:23-25).
Despise Not Little Ones
“Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 18:10).
Go to Offenders
“Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. And if he neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as a heathen man and a publican” (Matthew 18:15-17).
Beware of Covetousness
“And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15).
Forgive Offenders
“Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven” (Matthew 18:21-22).
Honor Marriage
“And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder” (Matthew 19:4-6).
Be a Servant
“. . . Whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; and whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many” (Matthew 20:26-28).
Be a House of Prayer
“It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer . . . ” (Matthew 21:13).
Ask in Faith

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive” (Matthew 21:21-22).
Bring In the Poor
“Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbors; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee. But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind: and thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just” (Luke 14:12-14).
@Truth Render to Caesar
“Show me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s” (Matthew 22:19-21).
Love the Lord
“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment” (Matthew 22:37-38).
Love Your Neighbor
“And the second [commandment] is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets” (Matthew 22:39-40).
Await My Return
“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 24:42-44).
Take, Eat, and Drink
“As they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

Be Born Again
“Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again” (John 3:5-7).
Keep My Commandments

Hi Mark. Just watched your video. I too am a fan of Asad 's translation. I like the New Study Qur'an very much. I recommend you watching the last minutes of the talk Seyyed Hossein Nasr has on TH-cam if you put key words New Approaches To Quran and watch his talk in Politics and Prose bookstore, might clear somethings for you. If you are still interested, there was a seminar in George Washington university, use Perennial Studies Foundation as key words on TH-cam. Hope that helps. Thank You
It's great study and curious ☪️ and the Quran ;)
The title is misleading, its not other English qurans, its like saying different qurans, it's the same with different translation, some may use a different t word having the same meaning in the other one, one may be old English. The study quran is the same, similar with much more commentary from different branches of Islam like sunni and Shia and different scholars
The many english translations of the Quran do differ they are not identical but I see your point that the english translations aren't the Quran or atleast this is what I think you mean
Good Video.
Did you study the Most Exact Translation of Quran? Which one is it?
By Abdullah Yusuf Ali best👍
@@bookstube3551
I wouldn’t recommend that since the translator didn’t even know proper Arabic and his translation contains mistakes.
I suggest that you concentrate on the actual content of the Study Qur'an. Here , at least.
Hi, what edition of the Message of the Quran is that one?
I am a beginner please recommend me which would be simplest quran for me in english so that i could understand it well.
The Clear Quran is a simple translation, but if you go to your local mosque you can get a free translation (or you can order one for free online). Hope it helps
@@Zainab-je2xb thankiu so much,i will buy it.
Let the masjid have its,so that it may be usefull for others as well.
The quran by abdul yusuf ali
It is recommended by Dr zakir naik
Please don’t use this book, ‘The Study Quran’, as it’s designed to confuse ordinary Muslims by pretending to engage in scholarly discourse. It’s full of bogus ideas. A translation by Dr. Mustafa Khattab’ is easy to understand, “ The Clear Quran”
What "version" of Asad's book is that? The ones i find on Amazon look totally different
I think that the noble Quran is a good translation
I HAVE SEVERAL QURANS...ARBERRY TOOK A LONG TIME TO READ....PICKTHALL AND HALEEM WERE MORE EASILY UNDERSTOOD BUT YUSEF ALI VERSION I COULD NEVER UNDERSTAND AND THAT ONE WAS ENDORSED BY ARABIA...MY COUSIN SAID KHAN [THE NOBLE QURAN] IS A GOOD TRANSLATION...THERE IS A NEW VERSION IS CALLED CLEAR QURAN.....MARK YOU CAN GET THEM FOR FREE.....LOOK AROUND
The translator of the Study Qur'an is a Shia. This is for information.
Thank you
Dont let it be in the floor or a table keep it up on (rehal) I dont know what we call this in english
Thanks for the insight. islam is best learnt from other Muslims because there is an Islamic culture which is very important mainly revolves around family as being married fulfills half your islam.
Being born, raised, schooled, married Catholic I found Islam 101 for Catholics quite understandable, although it could easily be for others
I especially liked Pres. OBama's quote "Nobody wants to know how tough you have had it'.
The uploader of this video is not Muslim nor are many within this comment section
Where did you buy Ali translation copy?
The qarun can't be translated it Arabic it stuck in arabic
Why is it that the commentator is not showing himself.
It's cuz they don't want to or only show the Quran to people for see
And plus this was made 8 more or less years so check the year when it was uploaded to TH-cam.
I have 13 interpretations of the Qur'an ( including the study Qur'an.) The study Qur'an has too much information if that's possible. You can get lost in the side notes. They're just too numerous. My two favorite interpretations are by Maulana Muhammad Ali and Abdullah Yusuf Ali. I find those easy to understand and the side notes are precise and very informative.
The Ahmadiyya translation by Maulana Muhammad Ali is my FAVORITE translation. I have read it now for 19 years, when I first began to study the Qur’an after 2001. His books on the study of the Holy Quran, the Prophets, the religion of Islam and others are written in the same clear writing and succinct meanings. Very readable.
@@XwynntopiaX Ahmaddiya are non - muslims .
ma sha allah did you read saheeh international quran it takes high recommendation
@@PeaceIsIslaam yes,I have copies of that one also. A good interpretation however lacking in side notes.
@@cjsansoo7 thank you very much Mr Charles
does anybody know if the Tajweed quaran is a good translation?
tajweed ===>> colour coded. To aid pronunciation. Nothing to do with translation.
Some Muslims will hear the message and see the big picture.. God is so great that even if Satan tricked Prophet Mohammed, God is pulling strings and making sure that situation turns around by: making Islam an abrahamic religion .. that means if you’re a Muslim who is not content with just the Quran .. you will have to seek and learn about the other 2 abrahamic religions.. as it’s all interconnected. Muslims come from Abraham: Abraham had two sons Isaac and Ismael. The Jews and Muslims. In todays world where Muslims vs. Jews you can see the relationship of half brothers bickering and arguing displayed in our Jewish and Muslim communities to this day. Fighting like brothers who cannot get along just like it is told in Scriptures. When you see the big picture you’ll study Christianity where you will know Yeshua Hamasiach and you’ll have to study Judaism , the entire foundation of abrahamic religions. You can’t be a Christian without knowing the Hebrew bible, the first five books of the Bible and The Old Testament. Christian’s have to learn about Jews and even though they are not Jews. Ultimately all three religions lead to one path: GOD. If you put a Christian, a Muslim and a Jew in one room, do you think one of those people is greater than the other Just because they’re a Muslim or Jew. Does being part of that religion automatically make them better than the other 2 persons ? Let’s take death for instance. So,etching we all have in common regardless of race, gender, religion. We will all die one day. how come Muslims Jews and Christian’s still die to this day if we were all born into the TRUE religion?? Does being born a Muslim mean you have an instant connection to God? I’ve seen plenty of Muslims Christian’s and Jewish people suffer the same problems as Amy regular person does. If one was so better than the other why do these people have to endure that level of suffering ? Why did the holocaust have to happen or Places like Syria being bombed and experiencing turmoil? Is a Muslim better by birth right than a Jew or Christian or Atheist. I hear Muslims often say being Muslim is the best, that they’re so lucky to be born Muslim, they tend to over-hype their religion to the point where it comes off as vain and it implies that if you’re not a Muslim then you’re below them and you’re looked down upon because you are not a Muslim. Is that really how God is? Do you think God is up there discriminating you based off of your Earthly decisions? God can only intervene so much. Regardless of religion, if we as a person decide to do something immoral or evil , we will have to pay the price because WE, willingly, chose to do bad. So you cannot blame God for the bad things that Happen when we decide to do bad. Nobody is saved from Death. Not even the most pious person. God is not discriminatory. ? MAN is. The Jewish People also say the same thing. There are very strict rules to follow about being Jewish and who is allowed into their communities and who is not. The Jewish people claim they are better than others because God spoke to them first and after all they are Gods chosen people. Does that mean Jewish people are better than Muslims or Christians. Do you really think God wants you to think that way about other people ? Is that not a limiting view of people and lack of love toward others .? If we all come from the same source, why not just ask GOD to show you the truth?ask and you shall receive. God will show you the path. After all, all of you Christian’s, atheists, Buddhist, Muslims, Jewish people .. are Gods creation.
Thank you - enjoyed reading your comment , indeed there is food for thought in it.
How much is the cost of abdullah yusuf version
800/- I have +91-9354871997 WhatsApp also
I bought mine for less than 10 dollars.
I don't know exactly whether you are a Muslim or a non-Muslim but I would like to correct you that Qur'an has no versions.
Different translations amount to different versions. This undeniable.
@@andreasplosky8516
You are absolutely wrong because translations are not 100% equal to the original Text of the Qur'an. We all know that a scholar while translating the Qur'an sometimes make mistakes even unintentionally. I have almost 42 translations of the Qur'an i.e. 13 English translations and the rest in urdu + 1 in Persian + 1 in Chinese + 1 in Russian. All possess errors. M. M. Pickthall's English translation of the Qur'an has 245 mistakes. Till this time I have noticed two errors in Sahih International. So, the Glorious Qur'an is completely protected by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and is one hundred percent in its original form as was revealed. Alhamdolillah
@@user-fy4xd1pg5d There are still different versions of the Quran in use. This started very early, like the Hafs and the Warsh versions who contain different texts, with at least 5000 differences, in which the subject of the sentence is changed, whether the verb is active or passive, singular or plural, how the grammar of the sentence is to be understood, and whether or not the Basmalah is even part of the revelation at the start of each sura. These differences do affect the meaning. The evidence speaks for itself. There are entire studies written about this. Your "priests" are trying to hide these facts from you.
Almost every verse in the Qur'an has variants associated with it!!!
@@andreasplosky8516
These are not versions but Qira'at.
@@user-fy4xd1pg5d That doesn't save your claim.
what in baudrillard's simulacra is happening that I'm watching a video on the Quran whose concerns are binding, gsm paper, typeset etc. lolwtf?!? I just already came from the Bible community where an artistic imprint of a shepherd can cost $$$$? For the so called GOOD NEEEEWS?
May I ask Why you want to learn Arabic ?
+tornado 1 I was studying Arabic to better communicate with Arab friends, to speak about God, and better understand Islam (I was a language major that moved on to Russian as I began leading/taking exchange groups there).
*****
Good! I hope to accept Islam and find the truth. I describe Arabic as the most elegant language. I hope to enjoy learning this language.
Arabic has a week name derivation sometimes wre singular twin many ( few) many (large numbers) forms, where names could change the name-word beyond relationship to each other male / female >
but the power of arabic, is in the verb and verb derivation. structure and rules
there is a phenomena on the quran and you could realize it only if you read the quran in it original language WHICH IS ARABIC
THIS PHENOMENA IS THE MORE YOU COMPARE THE QURAN TO EACH OTHER THE MORE YOU WILL FIND THAT THE QURAN IS TRUTHFUL TO EACH OTHER AND the more you comapre the quran to each other the more you could produce new information .
as i tell you this phenomena you realize it only if you read the quran in arabic because the quran is written by arabic and the translation dose not consider quran
Best wishes to you all. Please see Mahdi Lock's blog - inshaAllah you will find some beneficial material on there. He also wrote a book The big Step. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Islam .
Are you there?
The (Holy) seems very wrong to me. The Noble Quran, Quran but Holy just seems very wrong.

Thank you. Very helpful. I already own Abdullah Yusuf Ali (Amana, 2006) translation - The Green Book. May now go for the new Study Quran. Dr Shabir Ally has also reviewed it in Quran Speaks.
what about the " in the shade of the Quran"?
Dont suggest it. Its more of a commentary by Qutb and not a translation per se nor a proper exegesis. Also many of the erudites have reviewed it as being full of mistakes.
1+1+1=1 study
1X1X1=1 Acts12;24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
Christian
So, Jesus is multiplied by holy ghost and father?
Are you a Muslim now?
Both versions hold my door open equally, but if I'm short on TP, I prefer the original
I really dont like the Yusuf Ali translation. It's too biblical-ish. I want to buy both the Study Quran and Muhammad Asad's, but they're a bit pricey...
Abdullah Yusuf Ali, in my humble opinion, is the only one able to translate some of the grandeur of the original book. May Allah reward him with jannat ul firdaus.
Bro do u have a quran u don't use anymore would u be willing to mail me one I'm a Muslim.
Yes
I can send you a bible if you want?
Arno Fourie wth😂 that's really nice of you, but I think he wants to read the Qu'ran😊
I have a couple but I'm not sure how id send you one 😂 plus I'm Christian so I don't believe in it
QURAN YUSUF ALI PDF
I don't care about comparing the physical aspects of the books... I'm reading through the bible and figured i might as well read the Muslim stuff too. I just need a good English version to go off of.
I'm not of any of these faiths and have no interest in converting to any of these faiths.
You are Jew, and you are telling that which text of Quran pak is best, but are you know that this translated book is right or wrong?
Please don't mislead the public and making conspiracy against the Islam ..... Please....
May Allah give you right direction!
You guys are just pawns of the Jews.
Everybody aside from me is a pawn of Jews
If you don't believe you are a pawn then you are definitely a pawn.
he claims to be Christian I don't think he's a Jew dude.
