Synopsis
N. J. Dawood’s masterful translation in a fully revised edition, with a parallel Arabic text
The Koran is universally accepted by Muslims to be the infallible word of God as first revealed to the prophet Muhammad by the angel Gabriel nearly fourteen hundred years ago. Its 114 chapters recount the narratives and rules of conduct central to Islamic belief, and together they form one of the world’s most influential prophetic works and a literary masterpiece in its own right. This newly revised edition of N. J. Dawood’s classic translation also includes the original Arabic in parallel text.
For more than sixty-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
