The Holy Qurantr. by Yusuf Ali[1934] |
This is the text of Yusuf Ali's English translation of the Quran. This etext was produced in 2009-10 at sacred-texts.com from a reproduction of the 1934 edition. Omitted here are the Arabic text, the extensive versified commentary, footnotes and other apparatus. A version which includes Yusuf Ali's English translation, the Arabic text in gif format and a pronunciation guide is available here. The etext is broken down into one file per Surah. Per our site policy, no alterations were made to the source text; we welcome notice of transliteration errors.--Jan. 29, 2010.
Production notes: Yusuf Ali used a slightly different verse numbering for Surah 5 than most other editions. We have correlated the verse numbers in Surah 5 with the traditional system, leaving the book's original verse numbers in marginal notes. Verse numbering is not considered a canonical feature of the text.
