What makes this translation unique is that it has been edited by kids, for kids. Dr. Khattab has worked diligently with a team of students (mostly grade 2-5) to identify difficult words and replace them with easier ones that carry the same meaning. As for the words they couldn’t replace, they are explained in the glossary, along with the Arabic terms used in this book. With the help of qualified Islamic and public school teachers and professional editors, they made sure that the translation is accurate and accessible. The last volume which contains most surahs taught and memorized by kids was released 1st then working backwards to eventually the last of the series, which will eventually complete the 4 volume set.

Based on an authentic ḥadith recorded by Imam Aḥmad, the Prophet ‎ﷺ‎ said that the ‎Quran is made up of four sections: ‎
‎1.‎ Aṭ-Ṭiwal ‎الطِّوَال‎ (the long surahs), which—according to many scholars—‎include Al-Baqarah (2) to At-Tawbah (9)‎.‎
‎2.‎ Al-Mi’un ‎الْمِئُون‎ (the surahs of about 100 verses), which include Yunus (10) to ‎Al-Qaṣaṣ (28).‎
‎3.‎ Al-Mathani ‎الْمَثَانِي‎ (the surahs less than 100 verses), which include Al-’Ankabut ‎‎(29) to Al-Fatḥ (48).‎
‎4.‎ Al-Mufaṣṣal ‎‏ الْمُفَصَّل‎(the short surahs), which include Al-Ḥujurat (49) to An-‎Nas (114) as well as Al-Fatiḥah (1). ‎
