This is Pickthal's translation. In the link below you have three different translation of the Holy Quran, of which I think Picktha's is the best.

neutral  Aisha Maniar: Personally, I like Pickthall too but most people (English speakers - Muslims) don't - they feel the language is too old-fashioned and inaccessible; I personally beg to differ :-) ADD: I'm not speaking as a translator but as an English-speaker
