It is clear fact that the words of the Holy Qur'an is a source of inspiration to every Muslim in general and every scholar in particular. By these words we can understand the wonderful meanings and expressions of the Book of Allah.

This kind of understanding needs a great ability in mastering the Arabic language, and one of those who has been endowed with this mastery is the former grand Mufti of Egypt, Ash-Shaikh Hasanin Muhammad Makhluf, the compiler of this book, whose knowledge is self-evident.

In this book "Kalimatul-Qur'an" he presented an interpretation for those words of the Holy Qur'an that require interpretation and explanation, listing them according to the order of the verse in the Surahs.

The in translating this book to the English language the translator added to the meaning of the words a transliteration to each word in order to show the right way of pronouncing that word.

Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds, and prayer and peace be upon the last Messenger and the best of all of the creation and on his family and companions and their followers to the Day of Judgment.

This is an interpretation for those words of the Qur'an that require interpretation and explanation. It explains the meanings of those words and helps in understanding the verse in which they occur. The words have been listed according to the order of the verse in the Surahs (Qur'anic chapters). To the left of each word is the number of the verse to which the word belongs, and to its right is its meaning, in brevity and accuracy, with simplicity and clarity. Therefore, this book is a companion for those who are resident, provision for those who are travelling. It is light to carry, simple to understand, near to grasp. When it is sought for help, it offers its help to those who need it without difficulty or hardship.

I ask the Almighty Allah that He accepts this book as purely done for the sake of His Noble Countenance, that He makes me and those who help in publishing, on account of it, among those who kept the trust and discharged some of the duties toward His Great Book, and that He erases with it the sins and increases the rewards. Allah is Hearer, Responsive, Bountiful.
