The Holy Koran―An Interpretive Translation from Classical Arabic into Contemporary English

The Holy Koran is a timeless text, but time has weighted it with interpretations and contextualizations that have distorted the original message. In an effort to reilluminate the text, Dr. Mohamed K. Jasser returned to its original incarnation as it appeared in classical Arabic ages ago, free of 1500 years of interpretation and amendment. This new translation into modern English brings the recitations of Mohammed into the contemporary world and finds new vitality in the words most dear to more than 1.5 billion people in the world today.

Dr. Mohamed K. Jasser is a renowned heart surgeon and nuclear medicine specialist. During Operation Desert Storm, he appeared over 80 times on CNN discussing the nature of the conflict in the Middle East.
