This book makes the Qur'an accessible to the English-speaking student who lacks the linguistic background to read it in the original Arabic by offering accessible translations of, and commentary on, a series of selected passages that are representative of the Islamic scripture. Mustanstir Mir, Director of the Center for Islamic Studies at Youngstown State University, offers clear translations and analysis of 35 selected passages of the Qur'an that will help students understand what kind of book the Qur'an is, what the scripture says, and how it says it.

Mustansir Mir is a Professor of Philosophy, Religious Studies, and Islamic Studies at Youngstown State University, and is also the Director of the Center for Islamic Studies there.  He has published many translations from Arabic, especially the work of major Sufi poets of South Asia.
