I would like to read the Quran to learn more about Islam, is there a good English version of it. I was going to go to Jarir to get one. Any recommendations?
Mik, I am trying to PM you but it keeps logging me out.
I have one that is your for the taking if you wish. It is in arabic, and translated into English and also gives the english transliteration. It is the same one that Fanar and the Ministry of Awqaf use so the translation is pretty good.
PM me if you are interested, I can meet you or even mail it to your P.O Box if you like.
im sure if ever i meet your daughter we will enjoy each others company :D (by the way she's a cutie)
There is a ladies entrance past the main one, there will be a lady in the reception you can inquire with. You can probably check in the 3rd floor also, since the arabic classes are being held there.
I'd suggest dropping by instead of calling, since they can assist you personally by then.
Well if you be there at souq waqif than fanar is right opposite to Souq Waqif... Its a Brown Building and its like Masjid type ... There will be written Qatar Islamic Cultural Centre ok :)
Omar, I know how to get to souq waqif, but I don't know where the Al Fardan main bldg is or the gold souq, that's why I was initially asking if there were any good copies at Jarir. I don't know Doha very well, we really haven't been to a lot of places yet.
souq waqif, if you see the tower with a spiral design and thats really bright, thats it. If you are coming from crazy signal, pass the banks street, just go straight and the signal before the last one at the corniche, fanar will be at your right.
Thank you for all of your suggestions and help. I just wanted to read the Quran for myself and learn more about the religion that is so important to this region. I have read a few books about Islam, but you can't really learn about it until you read the actual book.
I agree, unless you got a good knowledge of the religion, don't use the websites. Go to Fanar, You not only get a copy of the Quran but they will answer anything you might be curious about without being pushy :)

There is one Gospel, which is not really a "Muslim Version of the Bible", but very close to.
Although most people (even Muslim scholars) consider it to be fabricated, I enjoyed reading it

Old Testament is common for Christians Muslims & Jews.
They share a common histroy!!!
And the Ten commandments of Moses is as sacred in all three religions.

Ok Omar, thanks again!
Motherhood...The hardest job you'll ever love! : )
Hi me too! im also curious about the Quranbut I want it in english version. Or is there anyone here who can lend us the book? well then thank you!!!
Well if you be there at souq waqif than fanar is right opposite to Souq Waqif... Its a Brown Building and its like Masjid type ... There will be written Qatar Islamic Cultural Centre ok :)
fanar is the building with the spiral on it. You can see if from the corniche. Right across from Souq waqif.
LOL, kyuting13, my daughter has your avatar's picture on her wall! Love that movie. Do I just ask someone when I go into fanar about a copy?
Motherhood...The hardest job you'll ever love! : )
All taxi drivers do know about FANAR & SOUQ area. Both are located at the same spot so you won't miss any of them.
.
Anyhow, go to JARIR bookstore Inshallah u will find Quran in English
Omar, I know how to get to souq waqif, but I don't know where the Al Fardan main bldg is or the gold souq, that's why I was initially asking if there were any good copies at Jarir. I don't know Doha very well, we really haven't been to a lot of places yet.

Fanar is right beside AL-Fardan Main building at Gold Souq or If you know about Souq Faleh than its easy for you as Fanar is located in Souq Faleh
Where is Fanar located?
Thank you for all of your suggestions and help. I just wanted to read the Quran for myself and learn more about the religion that is so important to this region. I have read a few books about Islam, but you can't really learn about it until you read the actual book.

I agree with cityh
Fanar would be the best option
I agree, unless you got a good knowledge of the religion, don't use the websites. Go to Fanar, You not only get a copy of the Quran but they will answer anything you might be curious about without being pushy :)
Fanar would be your best solution.
Personnaly, I would not trust in all copies you can find on internet.
Enjoy =)

its good that u want to read Quran..
How can i forget FANAR. They will surely help u
Try going to or calling fanar, i am sure they will provide you a free copy of Quran with english translation.
Jarir would be the best but again you can order it from AMAZON or other book websites.
.
There are lots of QURAN translations in many local LIBRARY or BOOK SHOPS.
.
Still, if ur unable to find one, just PM me i will surely help u out in this noble matter.
.
Is there also a good one that I can buy locally? I don't know all the places to go to get one here, but I know where Jarir is.
Motherhood...The hardest job you'll ever love! : )
Thanks atif242, I appreciate that.
