"The Meaning of the Qur'an ''follows the interpretation of Maulana Abul A`la Maududi as contained in the "Tafhimul Qur’an." This work has been before the reading public for a decade or so and has elicited unqualified and universal praise because of the freshness of its approach and its clarity and force. It can be safely asserted that this work has contributed more towards understanding the Qur'an than any other such work in our time. It has applied the Qur'anic principles to the solution of the problems of the modern age and demonstrated wonderfully how up-to-date the Qur'an is and how surely it marches with the times.
