The Clear Quran by Mustafa Khattab is a contemporary English translation designed for clarity, readability, and public teaching. Its objective is to communicate the meanings of the Quran in smooth, accessible English while reducing ambiguity for readers who do not know Arabic. The approach is explanatory and meaning-based: Khattab frequently inserts brief clarifying words in brackets, uses section headings and footnotes, and renders difficult expressions in a way that helps the modern reader follow the context and intended meaning. The translation reflects a mainstream Sunni orientation and is intended for devotional reading, dawah, classroom use, and introductory study.

It has become one of the most widely used modern English Quran translations online and in print. More...
