A Translation for the 21st Century
Translated by: Adil Salahi

The Quran is Gods book, and He says that it sets things in clear and easy to understand language. Its rule throughout is the brevity of expression and breadth of meaning. Yet, its literary excellence is far superior to anything Arabic has ever known.

Millions of people have learned its entirety by heart throughout every generation since it was first revealed. Nearly every Muslim memorizes parts of it, and most recite a portion of it every day. No book, religious or otherwise, is read and recited or listened to as frequently as the Quran. Those who recite it in Arabic are always eager to do more, aware of its inimitable clarity, rhythm, and brevity, yet modern English readers have had limited access to its meanings, with most reliant upon translations prepared in archaic English, unappealing to the contemporary reader.

Adil Salahis translation attempts to put the meanings of the Quran in clear modern English, making it easier for the twenty-first-century reader to gather the full message of the Quran, without having to read numerous footnotes or resort to books of commentary.
