The Holy Qur’an - Volume III, chapter 25 to 144

This is the holy book in the Qur’an - in English volume three chapter 25 through 144. I was seeking to find out what the Qur’an actually said in Lieu of hearing others say something.

not a perfect version

I chose this version because of the narrator's clear reading voice. My guess is that words were chosen in this translation for their exact meaning as if a computer did it. It is as if some of the spirit of the text was lost in the process.

it s the qur'an . how can you really judge it

Would you listen to The Holy Qur'an again? Why?

its the holy book of millions of people. its nice to hear what the Qur'an really says and not what other people say it says.

Any additional comments?

interesting to people interested in learning about others. like the bible or any other book, I'm sure some Muslims take every word as lord, just as some Christians read the Bible. it's up to the reader to listen and see what sticks. maybe its hindu, or whatever. enjoy the journey of exploration and being educated .

Awesome narration

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. Probably everyone should read or listen to the Quran. We need to understand Islam. Also, look into supportive literature that will assist you in understanding the Quran.

What other book might you compare The Holy Qur'an to and why?

The Old Testament.

What does Kevan Brighting bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

A commanding performance. Wonderful to listen to.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me sad in some ways. To me the Quran is very punitive making it known that all will burn in hell eternally if they don't believe in Allah. I believe in Allah, but I don't think Allah is as harsh as he is described in the Quran.

Any additional comments?

Listening to the Quran made me think of the Old Testament. I just can't believe in a God that is as cruel as the one in either the Quran or the Old Testament. I don't know how the followers of either book can live in so much fear.
It is said that Allah chooses who he will to understand the Quran and if you don't understand the Quran it's because he doesn't want you to. So maybe Allah does not want me to understand the Quran.

Consistent Superb Quality Right to the End

I put spaces between paragraphs but the review ends up without paragraph spacing. Why not WYSIWYG?

I followed along with the Pickthall translation and the narrator's text was close enough to be enjoyable.

Kevan Brighting maintained the outstanding quality of narration to the very end.

He is a wonderful narrator.

Very interesting. Great reading
