Abstract

The article presents a Russian translation of the commentary on the 77th sura, “The Emissaries,” from Tafsir al-Jalalayn (“The Commentary of the Two Jalals”), one of the most popular short Qur’anic commentaries in the Muslim world. It reflects the central opinion of the Sunni tradition. The introductory remarks and explanations describe the features of this commentary, briefly analyze the sura and discuss variations in Russian translations of several ayahs arising from different interpretations in classical Muslim exegesis.
