How To Deeply Understand The Quran
السلام علیکم ما شاء اللہ If you really want to understand the Quran deeply, in my opinion you should learn Arabic. Others can guide you better on what translations to read meanwhile and in what order but for a truly deep understanding, I think understanding the original text is a must. Exegeses I would recommend right now are: 1) Maulana Ameen Ahsan’s Tadabbur e Quran 2) Javed Ahmad Ghamidi’s Al-Bayan 3) Muhammad Asad’s The Message of the Quran In my opinion, you shouldn’t start with Maulana Ameen Ahsan’s Tadabbur e Quran as I feel it is too much for someone just starting pondering over the Quran. Al-Bayan is essentially a briefer version of Tadabbur, so start with that. Start from the beginning where Ghamidi Sahab introduces the Quran. And read The Message of the Quran side by side. Read Islahi Sahab’s Mabadi e Tadabbur e Quran (which has been printed separately) and Ghamidi Sahab’s Mabadi e Tadabbur Quran (in Meezan) first, however. I can’t emphasize on Arabic enough, though. These are my two cents. Others can guide you better.
