I suggest that you visit the local mosque and ask for a basic “primer” on Islam that is easy
to understand. You will be flooded with material. This will give you an “inside”
explanation of Islam that will be valuable for your study. Also, that is a good place to
obtain a Qur’an in Arabic and English. It is best to have both Arabic and English side by
side, since the Muslim considers the translation of the Qur’an as only a commentary on
the meaning of the Qur’an. Only the Arabic text is the true Qur’an. Therefore if your
copy contains both it lends to more credibility, even if you cannot read the Arabic script.
Arabic/English Qur’ans:
The Meaning of the Holy Qur’an, by Abdullah Yusuf Ali – this is the most widely used
and readily available English/Arabic copy.
