Karachi: Peermahomed Ebrahim Trust. Near Fine with no dust jacket; Some spots (publisher's defects) to the title page. Possibly a slight ding to head edge of back cover. 1975. No edition stated. Hardcover. This is a tasfir (or tasfeer) in English: a verse-by-verse commentary and interpretation of the Quran, this one by a highly-regarded Pakistani translator of the Quran. Believed to be written from the Shia perspective. This is not the commonly-available "modern English" translation with commentary by the same author, but an older, different book with an extensive, sequential commentary on the verses, often in archaic English. Thick 12mo, 1084 pages, ribbon marker. Boards have an unusual covering of ivory-colored "tape" strips laid down horizontally, gilt printing over that. No DJ, believed as-issued. Clean and tight copy. About Near Fine in relation to its fresh from the publisher condition, but a bit difficult to tell since the production quality of the book was somewhat crude. Quite scarce.; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 1084 pages .
