Reader Reviews
The Pickthall translation was about the only translation of the Koran you could find in English for a long time. I think more are available now. There is a helpful introduction which goes into some of the history of Mohamed and Islam. The book was translated with reverence and reads well. You get the flavor of the religion from it. Reading it did not convert me to Islam, but it helped me to understand people who choose this path and to understand what Mohamed did for that part of the world. I think it is good to get some understanding for all the key religions that humans live at this time and this book is helpful in this regard.
