Read the Qur’an

I recommend the following translations of the Qur’an since they are Qur’an centric translations and the translators stay away from hadith based interpretation of the Qur’an:

1) PDF verison of the Qur’an translation compiled by Monotheist Group:

https://www.free-minds.org/sites/default/files/quran.pdf

2) Online Qur’an – includes several “Qur’an Only” translations:

3) PDF version of Sam Gerran’s Translation:

It is also important to read several different translations to compare the methods used by translators. This can also help understand the root of the division in the Muslim world.
