Getting the most out of the Quran in English

As you probably know, much of the Qur'an is contextual, that is requiring an outside source to understand what it refers to. This outside source is the Seerah, the Life of Muhammad, صلى الله عليه وسلم, and the Sunnah, or [his] Wont, and his explanation of the Qur'an.

For the Seerah the most rigorous work is The Sealed Nectar, it's about as academic as hagiography can get. I would suggest the revised version though because the first English translation is unreadable. The pocket version uses the revised. Besides that book,a good resource is the Seerah here, you can listen to it, it's based on Ibn Kathir's work
kalamullah.com/anwar-alawlaki.html

As you can see it's three lengthy parts, Mecca, Medina part 1 and Medina part 2, but it's well worth it and quite enjoyable.

The best written work is Martin Ling's but I would avoid that as even though he uses old sources he doesn't handle them very critically so it gets a bit outlandish and sensationalist as he includes any material that's old regardless of corroboration or isnad.

As for which English Qur'an about to post on that

Arberry's translation is undoubtedly the greatest in English at imitating the style and rhythm of the Qur'an, his introduction explains how important this was in his work, it's very elegant. Biggest drawback is no commentary
For commentary I recommend....

The Hilali-Khan translation. This gets a lot of flak for being "Wahhabi" but as you can see it doesn't actually cite Ibn Abdul Wahhab, just classical scholars and Hadiths. However these can offend modern sensibilities, but they're not Wahhabi

Kill yourself.
The Quran is toddler-tier """"""""""literature"""""""""""".
Biggest waste of time I ever read.
But the fault is on me for not expecting from then inbreed intended target audience.

Yeah this board isn't for your Friday night prayers, nigger. SAGE.

...

I pray many time a day and Jummah prayer is at midday, not night

I dont know how you read it but that sounds like you either read a little and or didnt fully complete it.

My point still stands. Do your salat somehwere else. This isn't the streets of Birmingham

No it's not, what's your point? Who died and made you queen of Zig Forums?

It's an off topic thread. Have a good day. Again, SAGE

How? Are you saying Islam isn't political? Then don't have threads berating us lol

will I get a cute hijabiiiiiii gf if I convert? I view religion as a way to spread genes and promote their success, so I want a religion that helps me do that.

what your point, are you here to convert people ? i am an ex muslim myself, it's hard for people like me who have lost faith to respect islam after so much death threat and persecution .

whats wrong with pig latin, mohammad?

I don't care about murtaddin, just Muslims or those interested.

If you knew anything about Islam, youd know that reading it in any other language other than Arabic is a sin. You haram bachi boy

Just learn Arabic, faggot

>How? Are you saying Islam isn't political? Then don't have threads berating us lol
Wow can't believe I have to spell it out to you but this has nothing to do with politics, you faggot. A thread on whether an Islamic state is viable would be an appropriate thread, not which translation of your pseudoepigraph, heretical book is the most correct

i enjoy china concentration camp, it's a delicious vengeance to me, same with the israeli getting back their land and kicking you out of it. rogihna genocide, india new law on cachemir and beirut explosion, i like to see you suffer back, i like to see you persecuted back.

Reading tafsir in other languages has always been common

>“Like it or not, there was better rule of law under the Taliban,” said Dee Brillenburg Wurth, a child-protection expert at the U.N. mission in Afghanistan, who has sought to persuade the government to address the problem. “They saw it as a sin, and they stopped a lot of it.”

>The Bacha Bazi practice remains one of the issues much talked about (in news article and documentaries). However, it has not been dealt with effectively enough to root it out from the society. Bacha Bazi exists as a sexual companionship between powerful men and their conscripts (young boys). Nonetheless, it has matured more inexhaustibly since 2001. The issue has been largely ignored by international partners, in a bid to keep their local allies (Militias) intact to fight the Taliban.

>Apparently, Omar became sickened by the abusive raping of children by warlords and turned against their authority in the mountainous country of Afghanistan from 1994 onwards.[59]

>The practice of bacha bazi by warlords was one of the key factors in Omar mobilizing the Taliban.[61] Reportedly, in early 1994, Omar led 30 men armed with 16 rifles to free two young girls who had been kidnapped and raped by a warlord, hanging him from a tank gun barrel.[62]

im ex muslim myself but that a woman tier reasoning imo

doesn't seem reasonable for kuffar to get involved if it is an intense family religion, plus it said you can't marry muslim women even if you convert? bruh I don't like liberalism but it's the only way for me to get hijabi qt

sa3oodi w'kos om al nabi mohammad

i'm gonna visit france soon wanna meet up? :)

MuslimFag here
I’ll give my two cents..
first of all show your flag OP, this post isn’t even genuine. You have a post to anwar al alwaki, which makes me question your intentions, which leads me to think your probably a kike larping. Second This isn’t how you do dawah, the Quran isn’t some magical book that when people read they will accept Islam. All you do is open the door to people talking shit about it and losing track of the entire conversation. If you even understood the Seerah (life of the prophet) you would understand that our Nabi (prophet) didn’t go about this in that manner. It would be better to remind people of thier Lord and that God is one and that we will return to Him. And only then if the people show that thier heart is open then maybe a verse or two. Islam is a heavy topic and no one has time for it nor cares about it.. showing them this doesn’t do any good

best thing ever did was leave that filth
islam is satanic as fuck

Whose idea was it to order the Quran by longest chapters to shortest?

I'll dump some fun Islamic "scripture".

Muhammad once kissed and sucked on the tongue of a young boy named hassan and kissed his penis and made out with him

>Hadith Number 16245, Volume Title: “The Sayings of the Syrians,” Chapter Title: “Hadith of Mu’awiya Ibn Abu Sufyan”:

>“I saw the prophet – pbuh – sucking on the tongue or the lips of Al-Hassan son of Ali, may the prayers of Allah be upon him. For no tongue or lips that the prophet sucked on will be tormented (by hell fire)

>He (the Prophet) lift up his (al Hassan’s) shirt and kissed his (little) penis..”

روى أنه صلى الله عليه و سلم قبل زبيبة الحسن أو الحسين

Muhammad also used to pee while seated and wear his wives clothing and dance around in them. He used to wear makeup as well and go to pray with semen on his clothes. Its all in the hadiths.

i think that you will be disappointing, i am a dude

Getting back to Islam takes ten seconds and can be done immediately. Then do ghusl and pray. Doesn't need me. In my experience murtaddin are universally unintelligent and malicious, I have tried to be kind to them but they have lied to me or tried to provoke me or said they want us dead, so there is wisdom in the Hadd

Did you know Muhammad used to bathe in sewage and menstrual infested waters and even slept with his own urine?

>"I heard that the people asked the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ): Water is brought for you from the well of Buda'ah. It is a well in which dead dogs, menstrual clothes and excrement of people are thrown. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) replied: Verily water is pure and is not defiled by anything."

friendly reminder; all muslims go to hell.

>"Then he said, 'Where is the little one? Call the little one to me.' Hasan came running and jumped into his lap. Then he put his hand in his beard. Then the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, opened his mouth and put his tongue in his mouth. Then he said, O Allah, I love him, so love him and the one who loves him!'""

>As you probably know, much of the Qur'an is contextual, that is requiring an outside source to understand what it refers to.
Yes, I do know that. I also know the quran boasts about how miraculously clear and easy to understand it is. Yet it needs outside sources to understand. And every time you point out something stupid, or horrible, or contradictory in it muslims tell me the obvious interpretation is wrong and it actually needs years of study to understand. Despite, again, the quran itself boasting about how clear it is.

Using the term "muslimfag" is mocking the Deen and kufr.
