Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which translation of Tafhim al-Qur'an do you use?
A: The translation on this website is a transcription from the first translation of Maududi's Tafhim al-Qur'an, which is titled The Meaning of the Quran. The Islamic Foundation UK has published a second (newer) translation, entitled Towards Understanding the Quran.
Q: Is this freeware?
A: Englishtafsir.com is freeware. We developed it for our own benefit, for the benefit of the Muslims, and for the benefit of humanity. Because we did not translate the work, nor did we publish the printed edition, we claim no copyright. It is inappropriate to place restrictions on knowledge, especially knowledge of Quran.
Q: Really? May I do as I please with these files?
A: You may do anything you like. Copy freely. Distribute freely. Modify freely. Develop a mirror. Develop multiple mirrors. Incorporate it into your website. Make corrections. Distribute the zip file on file sharing networks. Create pdf files that are easy to print and distribute them. Make an eBook. Insert audio clips into the text. Develop a software program for the iPhone. Use your imagination. You have more than my permission, you have my encouragement. We do ask, however, that in whatever project you do, please include a link back to englishtafsir.com as we would certainly appreciate any web traffic you may be able to provide.
Q: Do you make any money off this site?
A: No. While we could cover our expenses and perhaps make a profit by placing ads on this site, we are uncomfortable about the idea. Quran is not something to be commercialised.
Q: How do I donate to help cover the expenses of maintaining this site?
A: Thank you for your kind offer, but our expenses are covered. If you would like to make a donation, we recommend that you give that money to the needy and poor in this world, people who really need it. Find a cause, and support it.
