The Noble Quran is the word of Allah and was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teachings. It is a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the religion. It is the most influential book in the history of literature and recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic. The Meaning Of The Glorious Qur'an (annotated) is an explanatory translation of the Qur'an by Marmaduke Pickthall. In 1928, Pickthall took a two-year sabbatical to complete his translation, a work that he considered the summit of his achievement. Pickthall noted the impossibility of perfectly translating the Arabic into English, and he titled his work The Meaning of the Glorious Quran. It was the first translation by a Muslim whose native language was English, and remains among the two most popular translations. The message of the Quran was addressed to all people regardless of class, gender, or age, and this translation is accessible to all.
