Anyone know a good English translation of the Koran/Qur'an?

Quran.com You can pick different translators but to to truly understand the book you need to know Arabic, also pay attention to the context, in order to gain a proper understanding of many verses in the Quran, it is important to understand and know the historic context of the revelations.

Thanks man.

I was hoping for a hardcover version as I try to avoid reading from computer screens as much as possible.

I don't know Arabic nor do I know the historic context but why does that matter? Isn't that what a translator does?

Abdullah Yusuf Ali(Hardcover) .. Also On Playstore iQuran..(Many Translation u can check which u like and buy later)

Every Verse was revealed cause of an historical event. So no wonder it took 23 years. So if u don't understand any verse then reading about that event will help.. Google is ur friend.

I would suggest: The Qur'an: A new translation by M.A.S Abdel Haleem
