An English-only translation that reads like prose rather than a reference text.
Most translations are built for study, and their sentence-by-sentence structure shows it. This one is arranged to be read continuously — the narrative passages hold together, and the stories of the Prophets carry the momentum they have in the original.
With no Arabic alongside it stays light and easy to carry, which makes it a practical choice for travelling, or for giving to someone coming to the Qur'an for the first time.
