While in the service of India’s Nizam of Hyderabad, Marmaduke
Pickthall converted to Islam and, with the help of Muslim
theologians and linguists, produced this clear and lovingly precise
English interpretation of the Holy Koran. His work is honored by
believer and non-believer alike for its unique combination of
piety, scholarly rigor in its translation and explanatory notes,
and deep feeling for the poetic beauty and moral grandeur of its
Arabic original.
