TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING THE QUR'AN is a fresh and highly readable English rendering of Tafhim al-Qur'an, Sayyid Mawdudi's monumental and masterly Urdu translation and commentary. Here is a Tafsir with a difference, by a scholar of an entirely different sort. An immense wealth of profound understanding of the Qur'an is here, so is a vast treasure of knowledge and deep insights, illuminating historical accounts and philological discussions, and a highly systematic exposition of social, political, economic and legal teachings.
But what makes this Tafsir unique is that it translates the Qur'an into a book to be lived by, a mission to be lived for, and a duty that a reader can no longer evade or postpone. This rare quality is imparted not only by the depth of his scholarship and style of exposition but also because Sayyid Mawdudi lived by what he expounded, as his life abundantly proves.
This Tafsir answers contemporary questions and makes the Qur'an fully relevant to the concerns of our day, yet it loses nothing of its timelessness nor sacrifices any of the traditional understanding. It demonstrates the unity and coherence of the Qur'an by centring everything in it on its message, like gems hung on a single string. Each Sarah is prefaced by an account of its background and teachings: Maps and indexes add greatly to the understanding.To sum up: in this Tafsir, Sayyid Mawdudi is offering us what we need most to understand and live by the Qur'an.

Adbul Majid Daryabadi
The Glorious Qur'an is an abridged edition of Abdul Majid Daryabadi's Tafsir Al-Qur'an, recognized for its meticulous English translation of the original Arabic and the use of comparative religion, anthropology, and history in its authoritative commentary of the Qur'an. Another valuable element of the work is the education it provides—its life-giving articles of faith, its life-sustaining teachings and its life-enriching worldview in a manner best suited for the English-speaking world.
Review "Undoubtedly unique and most acceptable among all the exegetical
renderings of the Holy Qur'an attempted so far in the English
language."—Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi
Volume 5 discusses Surat Al-An’am. In the Shade of the Qur’an has
been universally recognized as an outstanding contribution to Islamic
thought and scholarship, to which students and scholars, as well as
contemporary Islamic revivalist movements all over the world, owe a
great deal. Now that it is available in English, it will continue to
enlighten and inspire millions more. It will take its rightful place as
an indispensable work of reference for a proper understanding of
contemporary Islamic thinking. In the Shade of the Qur’an, a
monumental tafsir, is by far the largest and most profound work of
Sayyid Qutb. And it’s an earnest, sincere and sober look at man's
contemporary achievements and difficulties in the light of the message
of the Qur'an.
The development of the disciplines and branches of knowledge which were related to the understanding of the Qur'an and arc considered necessary for this purpose - what is known as ulum al-Qur'an - began in the lifetime of the Prophet himself, peace and blessings be upon him. Numerous books have since been written on this subject, in most Muslim languages. However, until now there was no book in English language on this subject. The author has therefore rendered a great service by compiling the first English book,which fills a very serious and deeply-felt gap. An average English reader who has no access to an Arabic text like al-itqan had nothing to help him/her in understanding the Qur'an. This book is precise, brief, yet quite comprehensive. It deals with the traditional subjects such as meaning of revelation, history and transmission of the text, asbab al-nuzul, exegesis, etc. as well as issues of more recent origin, like recording of the Qur'an, orientalists' views, translations and others. The concluding chapter has valuable practical advice for reading and studying of the Holy Book of Islam.

THE QUR'AN: BASIC TEACHINGS is an anthology of passages from the Qur'an selected and arranged in such a way that it may give a total view of the essential message of the Book, initiate the reader into its world-view and values, capture some flavor from its style, bring the reader's imagination into vivid contact with the vision of the Qur'anic model of man and society and bring him closer to God, the Lord of the Universe. An effort has been made to translate the meaning of the Qur'anic verses into contemporary English. The selections have been grouped under relevant headings showing how the Qur'an provides guidance for the multifarious facets of human life. More important headings include the Qur'anic view of itself, the story of creation, Tawhid (Oneness of God), Risala (Prophethood), Akhira (Life after Death), morality, norms of social behavior, structure of Islamic society, mutual rights and responsibilities of individual and state, economic system and the nature of the mission of the Islamic community. This new edition contains the text of the Qur'an side by side with the English translation.
THE QUR'AN: BASIC TEACHINGS is a handy reference book for all, Muslims and non-Muslims, teachers and students, scholars and laymen alike.

Hafiz Ibn Kathir
The Holy Quran is the greatest thing that Allah has honored the Islamic nation with; it is a noble book which has falseness neither before it nor after it. The Islamic nation has always taken great care of the Quran. Ibn Katheer’s interpretation (may Allah grant him mercy) was the greatest and the most important book written in interpretation of the Holy Quran. Ibn Katheer was very proficient in the sciences of the Quran and the Sunnah, and he was very knowledgeable about the subjects that were being discussed. Therefore, his interpretation is the perfect combination of reporting the narrations and analyzing the issues. The Muslim ummah has benefited immensely from his work.
Al-Misbah al-Muneer is a one-volume summary of Ibn Katheer’s tafseer, to make it easy and accessible for every Muslim home to reach for the horizon.

In it, the author outlines the five fundamental sciences that the Qur'an contains: the science of judgements, reminding others of the Favors of Allah, the Days of Allah, Life after Death, and particularly, the science of polemics. He also reviews the other sciences of tafsir such as the circumstances of revelation (asbab an-nuzul), abrogating and abrogated ayahs (an-nasikh wal-mansukh), and the unusual words and phrases of the Qur'an (gharaib al-Qur'an), before concluding the book by looking at the extraordinary and miraculous aspects of the Noble Book, and a final chapter on the meanings of the letters of the Arabic alphabet.
