"I think this is the best,most accurate, well researched, though one volume yet the most comprehensive translation of Quran with detailed authorotative foot-notes with cross references"
"The new edition of "Message of The Qur'an", by Muhammad Asad is excellent! I'm completely happy, it even exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone, without hesitation."
"One of the best Qur'an translations I've read, very scholarly while having a beautiful and touching translation. the only drawback is it's difficult to just 'read' - it's a huge book and requires setting time and everything else aside to focus on it, and you can't travel with it either."
"this is probably the most liberal and accepting translation of the Quran you'll find...For ex., the part about punishing homosexuality has been completely translated away...awesome job Asad....why 2 stars?? cuz no matter how you do it, its still boring and repetitive...."
