Tafsir Ibn Kathir Part 1 of 30 Al Fatiha 001 To Al Baqarah 141

This is Tafsir Ibn Kathir Volume 1 of 30: Al Fatihah 001 To Al Baqarah 141. Its objective is to gather in one place, for the English-speaking public, all relevant information needed to make the Qur'an more understandable and easier to study. This book accomplished this by providing the following:1. The Arabic Text for those who are able to read Arabic2. Transliteration of the Arabic text for those who are unable to read the Arabic script. This will give them a sample of the sound of the Qur'an, which they could not otherwise comprehend from reading the English meaning.3. The meaning of the qur'an (translated by Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al-Hilali, Ph.D. and Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan)4. Explanation (abridged Tafsir) by Ibn Kathir (translated by Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri)We hope that by doing this an ordinary English-speaker will be able to pick up a copy of this book and study and comprehend The Glorious Qur'an in a way that is acceptable to the understanding of the Rightly-guided Muslim Ummah (Community).
