The Meaning of The Holy Quran-Abdullah Yusuf Ali
The Meaning of The Holy Quran-Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali
The Meaning of The Holy Qur'an (Amana Publications Edition) represents the modern standard-bearer for Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s monumental 20th-century translation and commentary. Recognizing the enduring poetic beauty and depth of Yusuf Ali’s original work—first written in the 1930s—Amana Publications undertook a comprehensive editorial revision to modernize the text for contemporary global readers while preserving its original literary integrity. In this revised edition, several key enhancements were introduced: archaic English terms (such as substituting "Allah" for "God" and "Messenger" for "Apostle") were systematically standardized to better reflect authentic Islamic terminology. The Arabic text was completely re-typeset using the clear, high-legibility Madinah Naskh script. Furthermore, the extensive footnote commentary was meticulously reviewed by scholarly committees (including IIIT) to clarify historical context, remove obsolete references, and refine nuances without altering Yusuf Ali's core insights. Equipped with detailed Surah introductions, poetic commentary, and an expanded subject index, this edition remains the centerpiece English Quran reference across North American and international universities, Islamic institutions, and home libraries.
