Frequently
Asked Questions
Q:
Englishtafsir.com was out of service from 16 January 2009 to 13
February 2009. What happened?
A: Server
difficulties. After a one month loss of service, We are pleased to
note that englishtafsir.com is back online. We have a new, larger,
more reliable, server, and we finished uploading the source files
onto it on 13 February 09. Our apologies to all of you who have
waited patiently for englishtafsir.com to be fixed.
Q: Which
translation of Tafhim al-Qur'an do you use?
A: The
translation on this website is a transcription from the first
translation of Maududi's Tafhim al-Qur'an, entitled The
Meaning of the Quran. The Islamic Foundation UK has published a
second (newer) translation, entitled Towards Understanding the
Quran.
Q: Why did you make englishtafsir.com?
A: We wanted an online Quran tafsir. One with the
Arabic text. One with an easy to read English translation. One with
embedded footnotes to a more detailed commentary, but only when
needed. We searched the internet for such an easy to use Quran
translation. we could not find one. So we developed one.
Q: Is this freeware?
A: Englishtafsir.com is freeware. We developed it for
our own benefit, for the benefit of the Muslims, and for the benefit
of humanity. Because we did not translate the work, nor did we
publish the printed edition, we claim no copyright. It is
inappropriate to place restrictions on knowledge, especially
knowledge of Quran.
Q: Really? May I do as I please with these files?
A: You may do anything you like. Copy freely.
Distribute freely. Modify freely. Develop a mirror. Develop multiple
mirrors. Incorporate it into your website. Make corrections.
Distribute the zip
file on file sharing networks. Create pdf files that are easy to
print and distribute them. Make an eBook. Insert audio clips into the
text. Develop a software program for the iPhone. Use your
imagination. You have more than our permission, you have our
encouragement. We do ask, however, that in whatever project you do,
please include a link back to englishtafsir.com
as we would certainly appreciate any web traffic you may be
able to provide.
Q: Do you make any money off this site?
A: No. While we could cover our expenses and perhaps
make a profit by placing ads on this site, we are uncomfortable about
the idea. Quran is not something to be commercialised.
Q: How do I donate to help cover the expenses of
maintaining englishtafsir.com?
A: Thank you for your kind offer, but our expenses are
covered. If you would like to make a donation, we recommend that you
give that money to the needy and poor in this world, people who
really need it. Find a cause, and support it. We like the Zakat
Foundation.
Q: Are they legitimate?
A: Charity Navigator, a group that monitors charities,
gave Zakat Foundation four
stars. For reference, the SPCA
is also a four star charity, while the American Red
Cross was rated two stars.
Insha Allah.
