The Quran serves as a divine guide for humanity, emphasizing spiritual and intellectual truths, the purpose of life, and the afterlife. It was translated into English by Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, who aimed to present its teachings in contemporary language and promote peace and non-violence based on its principles. Goodword Books published this translation in an effort to disseminate the Quran's message widely, making it accessible to non-Arabic speakers.
