Greetings! Good news: I just received verbal permission from Tahrike Tarsile Qur'an Inc. to put Shakir's translation on the public networks. I expect this will be the translation of choice, but just to recap the possibilities: 1) M. A. Shakir 2) George Sale 3) John Rodwell 4) Mirza Abul Fazl 5) Muhammad Abdul Hakim Khan 6) Edward Palmer 7) Alexander Ross So let's start a discussion and pick one of these translations, if there are no objections. With the numerous resources volunteered thus far for the project, I imagine we could have a working copy on line within a month or so! Peace! Camm
