Born in 1920, Professor Ghali is one of the leading international figures in the field of Islamic studies, particularly in Qur'anic studies. Dr. Ghali has spent 20 years interpreting the meanings of the Glorious Qur'an into English. His English translation (Towards Understanding the Ever-Glorious Qur'an) is a masterpiece in the field. Some of the main differences in a translation of the meanings of the Qur'an into English are the differences between the two languages, most imporant of which is the fact that Arabic has a wealth of basic vocabulary and a rich morphological and syntactic structure. So much of Arabic vocabulary has no counterpart in English such as the common verbs adala "he did justice" and thalama "he did injustice", which have no verb equivalents in English. In this edition, effort has been made to correct more mistakes resulting from a modest mastery of both English and Arabic, with the hope that this translation, as well as others, could help towards understanding the teachings of the Qur'an, without which all humility, Muslims and non-Muslims alike, will face instability, tribulation and universal tragedy.
