To mark Sandala’s publication of the late Dr. Thomas Cleary’s translation of the Qur’an, Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, President of Zaytuna College, joins us to reflect on Cleary’s brilliant rendering of God’s Final Testament.
Cleary’s translation – remarkable for its clarity and precision – presents the Qur’an as a living text, inviting both Muslim and non-Muslim readers into its ethical and contemplative dimensions. Shaykh Hamza will explore how this faithful rendition of the Qur’an holds true to its greatest purpose: to soak the soul in its recital and timeless message.
Joining Shaykh Hamza Yusuf in conversation are Dr Aisha Subhani, Vice President of Zaytuna College, and Dr Asad Tarsin, as they consider the power of translation, the significance of this work, and the enduring relevance of the Qur’an’s guidance in our time.
