description: Accepted by Muslims as the miraculous utterance of the Almighty, the Qu'an (the Arabic spelling for the more commonly used Koran) contains all the divine revelations given to Muhammad by Allah, or God. The collection as it now exists was compiled by Muhammad's followers after his death in 632. This handsome volume features the original Arabic side by side with its English translation -- plus a wealth of information in the editor's commentary that provides intellectual explanation, interpretation, and important background.
