The Holy Qur'an: Text, Translation and Commentary is a translation and commentary on the Qur'an by the Muslim Indian civil servant Abdullah Yusuf Ali, first published in 1934, which has become among the most widely known English translations.

Controversies

Later editions of it remain in print, with various changes such as the replacement of "God" with "Allah" ^[1] and the removal of certain commentary references to Hasan and Husayn ^[2].

It was described by San Diego assistant professor Khaleel Mohammed as "a polemic against Jews" due to the content of its footnotes ^[3]
