Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Sep 10, 2004 Type: User Review A breakthrough translation of the Qur'an

This is one of the best translations of the Qur'an on the market today. Prof. Abdel Haleem has done a remarkable job of presenting the Qur'an in modern English. His translation is easy to read and has just enough footnotes and commentary to...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: May 30, 2005 Type: User Review Pretty but disappointing

This very pretty and readable Koran, is not as good as it appears. The translation is not bad and it is accurate, however lack of a good index can make searching for subjects hard, if one is looking for a Koran that they might use for reference...

All I want to know is if the book in questiob is an accurate translation of the Koran (Quran, whatever). There is way too much arguing and posturing in these reviews about the Koran in general and not enough discussion about the individual...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Jan 01, 2007 Type: User Review Airbrushed Islam

Karen Armstrong airbrushes all the moles, pimples, and warts of the face of Islam in this book. If you want the politically correct version of the history of Islam, this is the book for you. It is loaded with half-truths, factual errors, excuses...

Excellent beginning and excellent ending, but the middle was quite dense and difficult to follow. I expected a short history to be more general, accessible, easy to read and obtain a broad picture of the religion. Instead, this short history seems...

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Sep 18, 1998 Type: User Review No other Quranic translation is so useful in modern life.

Although the translation is done in a smooth and lucid style, there are certain disadvantages. Firstly the translation is done in an old English style (i.e. "thees and thous"). Secondly, the author forces his own opinions and the opinions of his...

This work must be intellectually assailed within the context in which it is presented. Religious emotionalism should not be a factor in a balanced criticism. Each section of the book should be placed in a historical, cultural, and pychological...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Feb 09, 2002 Type: User Review I'd rather read Pollyanna

You have to give the Qur'an credit--few books in the desert cave canon can match its retro charm. Though controversial at first, it went on to become the Dianetics of its day. Ignore the naysayers--the Qur'an's flat-earth cosmology, slave-care...

Dawood's translation was, I believe, the first one that I ever read. As I am not a Muslim, I can't judge very well on matters of interpretation, but on a scale of 1 to 10 I'd say:

Accuracy - 5. Given a choice, Dawood prefers clarity to...

From: Posted: Mar 06, 2004 Type: User Review Misleading and Offensive

This book attempts to generalize Muslim women. It tells a few sad stories and makes it seem that all Muslim women are oppressed, stupid, and in need of God in their lives.
FYI, educated Muslim women already know Jesus and have God in their lives!
