In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, Most Merciful
Preface
All praise be to Allah alone, the creator and the sustainer of this universe; and peace and blessings of Allah
be on Prophet Mohammad.
This transliteration is not meant to replace the original Arabic text of the Quran. You may use it during a
transition period when you are learning to read the Arabic text.
Most of the existing transliterations are in the form of sentences printed next to the Arabic text. This does
not help you learn the Arabic text efficiently. Whenever you face problems in recognizing a word, you
have to search that word in the transliterated sentence, thereby consuming time and/or discontinuing the
recitation, and leading to, sometimes, decrease in interest. In this design, you need to look right below the
Arabic word. Another important feature of this work is that it is not only word-for-word but syllable-for-
syllable transliteration. The users will find it much more useful, inshaAllah.
Please note the following while using this transliteration:
 It is an Arabic book, so the words are written from right to left.
 The English boxes given below each word containing transliterated text, therefore have to be read
from right to left, since they correspond to the Arabic text above them.
 Within each box, English transliterated text will be read from left-to-right.

For example, the second verse of Surah Al-Fatihah is written as:

2. Rab-bil-`Aa-la-meen lil-laa-hi Al-´am-du

Even though the English text is placed in the three boxes above, it should be read as:
Al-´am-du lil-laa-hi Rab-bil-`Aa-la-meen
By observing the above arrangement, you can easily figure out as to how you should you make use of this
transliteration for reciting Al-Qur’an.
This arrangement also indicates that certain words have to read in combination of the following ones. For
example, the word Rabb has to be combined with the following word Al-`Aalameen. Therefore, it is read
as: Rabbil-`Aalameen.
Whenever you see any of the five signs, it means that there is a stop in recitation at that point in the
transliterated text. These signs are: Full stop (.), Comma (,), Colon (:), Semi-colon (;), and Exclamation
mark (!). Please note that some of these stops are optional and are provided here for ease of recitation and
are in accordance with the rules of stopping (waqf) and starting (’ibtidaa’) the recitation.
This Mushaf can be used for recitation also. Just ignore the boxes below the Arabic text.
Different references have been used to develop this transliteration, especially that of Shaikh Eliyasee.
However, necessary changes have been made to make it more readable, useful, and easy. Please refer to
the transliteration table for this new style.
InshaAllah new Muslims who are learning to read Quran will find it extremely helpful. Those who are
learning Tajweed may also find in this work some points as madd, ghunna, idghaam, iqlaab, and ikhfaa.
Effort is made to incorporate these aspects. Please learn these rules from a teacher.
Several people have contributed to this work. Shaikh AbdulGhafoor Parekh and sister Aisha Fozia
provided the transliterated text. Samah Abdulazeez carried out the final check and page titles and
converted all the files into appropriate parts and then into pdf files. Br Muhammad Mujtaba Shareef,
webmaster of www.understandquran.com and Br. Waseem Khan helped us ini uploading the files on the
web page. May Allah reward them and everyone else who participated or will participate in spreading this
noble work.

TRANSLITERATION TABLE
• The key given below represents the sound and not the name of a letter. For example, m represents the sound of letter
; the name of the letter is Meem. Some words in Arabic do not have any direct equivalent in English. A double star
م
(**) is placed next to such words in the Example column. You have to learn their pronunciations from a teacher.
• The sign of hamzah is ('), as used in English at the end of a quotation. The sign for ‘ayn (ع) is (`), as
used at the start of a quotation. Bold r and l letters imply Tafkheem (full-mouth or thick pronunciation).
• Any word repeated represents Tashdeed are shown as with a dash in between them (ex. b-b, l-l, etc.). They should be
repeated with a double force. Double m (mm or m-m) and double n (nn or n-n) should be pronounced with a gunnah
(long sound from the nose).
