The Noble Qur'an A New Rendering of its Meaning in English

The Noble Qur'an: A New Rendering of its Meaning in English needs no introduction. Now in its third edition, its reviews speak for themselves:

"This new translation of the Qur'an immediately outdates all the others in the English-speaking world. The result of over twenty-five years of detailed study of the Qur'anic text, the Bewley translation has the advantage of high quality, naturally fluent English, along with the benefit of access to the traditional understanding of the text."
Dr. Y. Dutton, Head of Dept. of Arabic and Islamic Studies, Edinburgh University in Journal of Qur'anic Studies, vol. ll, no. 2, 2000, pp. 82-88

"Abdalhaqq and Aisha Bewley's (translation) has, perhaps, the potential of setting new standards in this discipline... For those who want to familiarise themselves with the content of the Qur'an, this is the ideal translation to start with."
Dr. A. Christmann, University of Manchester, Journal of Semitic Studies, 2002, pp. 372-375

About The Author & Translator

Aisha Bewley

Aisha Bewley is one of today's most prolific translators of classical Arabic works into English. She is not only learned in the Arabic language but also well versed in the basic meanings and nature of the teachings and history of Islam. Being herself a Muslim, her knowledge is born of experience and direct transmission, not simply academic theory and learning by rote. For more than twenty-five years she has been concerned with making the contents of many classical works in Arabic more accessible to English-speaking readers for the first time, including Al-Muwatta' of Imam Malik (Madinah Press, 1991) and the Tabaqat of Ibn Sa'ad series of books, published by Ta-Ha Publishers Ltd.

Abdalhaqq

Abdalhaqq accepted Islam in 1968 and spent some years in Morocco learning about Islam. Since that time, he has worked on the establishment of Islam and Muslim communities, in the process living and teaching in Nigeria, the US, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Spain, the Caribbean, Slough, Norwich and Bradford. He currently resides and teaches in Bradford and is the Chair of the British Board of Scholars and Imams (BBSI).
