A FEW WORDS FROM THE AUTHOR, DR. KHATTAB

Alhamdulillah. For the last five years, I've been working on The Clear Quran Dictionary. It all started with a complaint from a brother who said he couldn't understand Quranic recitations in Taraweeh because Arabic wasn't his native tongue. After much thinking and deliberation, I decided to work on a dictionary that would help non-Arabs understand the Quran in Arabic in only 4-6 months. I scribbled the Arabic alphabet on my desk and said Bismillah. Now, with the help of Allah, after all the challenges--including a global pandemic--and a journey that spanned Canada, Egypt, Istanbul, Makkah and Madinah, I'm thrilled to announce that this awesome dictionary will be released around Ramadan of this year in-sha-Allah. I couldn't have done it without my dedicated team of editors, illustrators, designers, sponsors, calligrapher, and many others.
