Tafseer e-Majidi English Maulana Abdul Majid Daryaabadi

Tafseer-e-Majidi, initially penned in English (1933–1939) before its Urdu version, is a significant 20th-century Quranic commentary by Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadi. Its defining feature is the comparative study it presents, offering a scholarly defense of the Quran against Christian and Jewish critics. Daryabadi, a former agnostic, systematically compares the Quran with the Torah and the Gospel, exposing historical distortions in earlier scriptures. The exegesis is highly regarded for being responsive to modern doubts, using geographical and historical research to confirm Quranic narratives, and demonstrating the superiority of the Islamic social system. Written in smooth, clear English prose, it is an essential resource for English-speaking Muslims and comparative religious studies.
