Abstract | On translations of the Qur'an, and introductory books on the Bahá'í Faith. |
Notes | One edition that may be of interest is "The Study Quran" (2015), a comprehensive resource, featuring a new English translation, extensive footnotes, scholarly commentaries, essays, detailed maps, etc. One suggestion that is given for beginners, in the essay "How to read the Quran", is to start reading from Súrah 67 until the end (the shorter ones, many of them early, comprising one fifteenth of the total volume), reflecting on the themes found there.
