A. Yusuf Ali, "The Holy Qur'an, Translation and Commentary", American Trust Publications, Plainfield, IN. ISBN 0-89259-006-8.

Probably the most recognized translation. It has a few flaws, such as the use of old English pronouns, but it adds a rich commentary that helps the non-Muslim reader understand better the context of each verse and the theme of each chapter.
