The Meaning of the Holy Qur'an for School Children is a child-friendly translation of the entire Qur'an meant for elementary level. The reasons for revelation and background of the verses are given, all in language accessible by children from about ages 8-14. This is the first of two volumes in the multi-volume, hard cover edition of the popular one volume paperback title of the same name. It covers surahs 1-19. Review: Very easy to read and understand. - Amazing translation with brief explanations of each surah in modern English. Although it states for children it is equally beneficial for adults Because of the ease with which you can read and understand it. Amazing purchase and one you will not regret. Also very much recommended for those who are not Muslim but wish to understand Islamโs holy book and its message. Very much recommended to all. Review: Great for adults, great for secondary school kids - A little difficult for my 8 year old to understand but the 10 year old understands it much better. Especially after I've explained the meaning of some of the big complicated words. It would have been much more suited to younger readers if some of the sentencing were written less complicated and some of the more complex words had been substituted for words that children could understand much more easily. Apart from that, it's well written and easy to understand from an 11+ perspective. The structuring of the book makes it easy to explain the stories to the younger readers and read in small digestible bites. I think it's deserving of the 5 stars I've given it even though it could be worded better to suit the younger readers.

Highly recommended
Excellent and really easy read for children. It's not a like an adult or literal translation but is translated into easy sentences with easy meaning. It's a very thick book hence the price. I am going to bind this book as I can see it opening up and pages coming out if used alot. Highly recommend for any household with children. This is in particular for children 11+. As an RE teacher, it's good resource to have.

Simply beautiful
Bought this for Children to understand Holy Quran better but ended up reading this myself. My whole family is enjoying reading this. We have 3 bookmarks in it. I loved it so much I have asked friends and family to order this as well and I think some of them has done this already. JazakAllah for this book.

Easy to read.
Nice to have a bit of context (tafseer) to refer back to. Iโve read through some pages and have come away reflecting. Itโs worth a read especially if you want to learn context behind scriptures.

Good value
I was expecting a smaller book but this is very large and thick book with a lot of details. My 8 year old enjoys reading this however I wouldn't recommend it for younger ages. I often read this myself as it's suitable for adults too.

Great for children and adults
This book is written in a way that is easy to understand. I love the way every Surah has an explanation and a backstory to give a better idea. For example, there is historical lessons that help you understand the text better. It helps me understand the Quran better, that way I am able to explain to my kids better.

Must have for every Muslim kid

good copy
it is quite good for children and maintains the actual translation at the same time. some pictures and some highlights on certain words make this excellent for children, but i dont feel like the language is really dumbed down to a childs level, its still a good read and you may need to break out the dictionary every once in a while is all im saying. i split mine into 5 smaller books by cutting down the spine and gluing on a cover or back as needed. this made it so much easier to hold and read as this is a large heavy book. God bless.

Not only for school children but for everyone who want to know more about Quran
What is really great about this book is that in every surat (chapter of the Quran) it will indicate the different parts. So it's not anymore a reading where you feel lost by change of topics, but you know that you are entering a new one. Before every surat too, he will give you an overview of the content, the period of revelation and other. And because it suppose to be for children, you have some nice drawings in it :-). I recommande it without a doubt.
