Towards Understanding the Qur'an (Abridged Version, English only)
Towards Understanding the Qur’an; Abridged version of Tafhim al-Qur’an is a fresh English rendering of Sayyid Mawdüdi’s monumental and masterly Urdu translation of the Qur’an with a selection of commentary (Qur’an appears in English). Here is a work with a difference by a scholar of an entirely different sort. An immense wealth of profound understanding of the Qur’an is here with deep insights and a valuable exposition of social, political, economic, and legal teachings of the Qur’an. But what makes this work unique is that it translates the Qur’an as a book to be lived by, a mission to be lived for, and a duty that readers can no longer evade or postpone. This rare quality is imparted not only by the depth of his scholarship and style of exposition, but also because Sayyid Mawdudi lived by this understanding of the Qur’an. Despite being an abridged version, this book endeavors to answer many contemporary questions and makes the Qur’an fully relevant to the concerns of our day since it loses nothing of its timelessness or sacrifices any of the traditional understanding. It demonstrates the unity and coherence of the Qur’an by centering everything on its message, like gems hung on a single string. A glossary, biographical notes, general and subject indexes also add to the understanding of the Qur’an. In summary, this work by Sayyid Mawdudi is offering us what we need most to understand and live by, the Qur’an. English translation of the Qur’an, in modern English by Mawlana Mawdudi along with selected commentary.

Ulum Al-Qur'an - An Introduction to the Sciences of the Qur'an
The development of the disciplines and branches of knowledge which were related to the understanding of the Qur'an and arc considered necessary for this purpose - what is known as ulum al-Qur'an - began in the lifetime of the Prophet himself, peace and blessings be upon him. Numerous books have since been written on this subject, in most Muslim languages. However, until now there was no book in English language on this subject. The author has therefore rendered a great service by compiling the first English book,which fills a very serious and deeply-felt gap. An average English reader who has no access to an Arabic text like al-itqan had nothing to help him/her in understanding the Qur'an. This book is precise, brief, yet quite comprehensive. It deals with the traditional subjects such as meaning of revelation, history and transmission of the text, asbab al-nuzul, exegesis, etc. as well as issues of more recent origin, like recording of the Qur'an, orientalists' views, translations and others. The concluding chapter has valuable practical advice for reading and studying of the Holy Book of Islam.
