From: Amazon Posted: Jun 03, 2007 Type: User Review Inspires reverance to Gods final will and testament - the Koran

From: Amazon Posted: May 05, 2007 Type: User Review A good translation of an important book

When I say this is a good translation, I'm guessing because I don't read Arabic. The reason I feel confident that it's a good translation is that in comparing passages here with passages in other translations, I see no significant divergence. read full review | report as inappropriate

From: Amazon Posted: Apr 28, 2007 Type: User Review Inspired by the angel named Lucifer

From: Amazon Posted: Nov 13, 2006 Type: User Review Clear reading

I got this for Christmas one year as a gift (I had asked for it) because I am somewhat of a student of religion. I like to at least have an idea what the other religions say. So I don't necessarily read them in a "religious" way or as a...

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 25, 2006 Type: User Review A very readable translation and good complement to others
