As a product I'm 10/10 satisfied, and would gladly recommend it to anyone who wants to read/learn the Qur'an.
It's a thoroughly well planned, and well made audiobook. The Chapters/Suras in the index have both the English and Arab name, and are numbered, so it's easy to navigate. The narrator speaks beautiful British, but it's obvious he speaks Arabic just as well. However the Qur'an can be a bumpy ride sometimes, as it jumps from here to there and back and somewhere else in a matter of few verses. This Qur'an is adjusted and made an audiobook, so it's not a direct reading, and the language has a very natural flow that is easy to follow. Every chapter/Sura has a short introduction before the reading begins. The narrator has a smooth comfortable voice, that is clear and easy to listen to. I'm a European Atheist who was tired of being ignorant about this religion. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more. The message of the Qur'an was directly addressed to all people regardless of class, gender, or age, and this translation is equally accessible to everyone.Ībout the series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Archaisms and cryptic language are avoided and the Arabic meaning preserved by respecting the context of the discourse. This new translation is written in a contemporary idiom that remains faithful to the original, making it easy to listen to while retaining its powers of eloquence. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. "Read! Your Lord is the Most Bountiful one who taught by the pen, who taught man what he did not know."
