This set places one or a couple of words of the ‘ayah in one line of a column and gives their meanings side by side in another column, taking care to see that the flow and intelligibility of the English meanings are not thereby lost.

I have read many books on Quranic language. This is undoubtedly one of the best contemporary works in English for the students of Quranic Arabic. Not only do these three volumes provide a word for word meaning of Quran, but they also explain various forms of selected words along with the occasional grammatical notes in case of some verses. This set of three volumes refers to the classical commentaries like Tabari, Ibn Katheer, Bahr Al-Muheet of Abu Al-Hayyan, etc.
Having said that the only thing that needs improvement at some places is the printing.

WORD FOR WORD MEANING OF THE QURAN – Book Sample
Preface to the first part – A Word For Word Meaning Of The Qur’an
There are a number of English meanings of the Qur’an in circulation. The method followed in these work is generally that the text of the ‘ayah is placed in one column and its meaning is placed side by side in another column. This arrangement of course enables the reader to know the meaning of the ‘ayah as a whole; but a non-Arab reader not having some knowledge of Arabic is unable to identify which English word or phrase e represent the meaning of which words in the Arabic text.
The present work aims at removing this difficulty. It places one or a coup) of word of the ayah in one line of a column and gives their meaning side by side in another column, taking care to see that the flow and intelligibility of the English meaning are not thereby lost. This method has the additional advantage of keeping the meaning strictly to the wording of the text and it militate again t omitting the meaning of any word of the text or importing in the meaning any word or expression that has no correspondence with anything in the text.
To further facilitate the understanding of the text, the meaning of almost all important word in the text have been given separately. To do this a number has been placed on the English word which represent the meaning of the particular word in the text and then the meanings of that word have been given under that number in another column by the side of the general meaning of the text.
The numbering has been kept individual for each page. Also grammatical notes, particularly verb form and verbal noun, have been given as far as practicable. As the word recur at different page, o their meaning and grammatical notes al o has been repeated, giving cross reference to at least one previous occurrence of the word, indicating the page on which and the number under which the word has been explained before. Such repetition has been deemed helpful for habituating the reader with the particular word and it meaning.
Many word in Arabic language also each bears a number of meaning
As is the case with other languages, many word in Arabic language also each bears a number of meaning. An attempt has been made to indicate such different meanings for a particular word. similarly, a number of English meaning have been given for a word o that a reader may well understand the different hade of meaning of the particular term in an ·ayah.
The aim bas been to enable a non-Arab Reader Lo understand the Qur’an as w II a to improve hi knowledge of Arabic. particularly the Quranic Arabic. Along with word meaning explanatory note al o have been given wherever necessary; but these have been kept to the minimum and have been based on classical and authoritative commentaries to which reference has been made at the appropriate places.
