The Quran, the last revealed word of God, is the
primary source of every Muslim’s faith and practice. It deals with all the
subjects which concern human beings: wisdom, doctrine, worship, transactions,
law, etc., but its basic theme is the relationship between God and His
creatures. At the same time, it provides guidelines and detailed teachings
for a just society, proper human conduct, and an equitable economic system.
Note that the Quran was revealed to Muhammad
in Arabic only. So, any Quranic translation, either in English or any
other language, is neither a Quran, nor a version of the Quran, but rather it is
only a translation of the meaning of the Quran. The Quran exists only in
the Arabic in which it was revealed.
