      Peace Arnold,

      Peace,

      Please see this Word-Word Quran by the Jimas organisation, it is the best one out there

      http//www.jimas.org/pubs.htm

      The one publishd by jima isn't a word for word Translation, it is a word for word Meanings of the quran in that it has footnotes at the bottom giving some linguistic and grammatical explanations of Some but not All words of each verse.

      I believe what Jankren, Wakas and the rest here are talking about is what you'll find at The Emuslim Site and at the Quran in English Site where every arabic word of every verse is seprated with it's English equivalent given next to it or beneath it.

      Salaam,
      Damon.

        Peace,

        Brother, does the ones you have mentioned have a complete index? I mean, can I for example easily find out on which page surah 2150 is without having to browse the hundreds of ayats in chapter two?

        I find that this is the main lack in every word-to-word translation I've come over.

          Peace Nadeem,

          Neither of the word for word translations that I have posted in my post above has an index. The Noble Quran word for word is also lacking an index. I think the noble quran word for word would be the least inconvenient of the three because it is in hardcopy form and the Surah names and numbers are on the top of each page. So you'll probably have an easier time looking through this one as opposed to the two that are available online.

          I hope this helps you bro.

          Salaam,
          Damon.

            peace all,

            I personally do not find looking up Noble Quran Word for Word too difficult, as Damon said it tells you the chapter number&name at the top and numbers the verses on the pages quite clearly.

            In terms of Lane's Arabic-English lexicon, I personally found looking up the hardcopy time consuming (8 volume set) and always preferred the CD-Rom. Looking up Lane via PRL is also quick.

            Quicker than anticipated, PRL now has classical Arabic meanings listed for 99% of roots used in The Quran
            www.studyquran.co.uk/PRLonline.htm

            All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

              Anyone please recommend me a Word For Word Quran Translation which I could buy from Amazon.com or anywhere on the internet. I appreciate all the suggestions in advance.

              salam jankren

              Since you are from indonesia, i would suggest you to purchase "Terjemah Al-Quran secara Lafazhiyah" which is widely used in your country. Here in malaysia, many ppl are using this too. To me the translation follows strictly the arabic wordings and it is very usefull.

              salam

                  From the link above and in its section of "What root meaning is correct", the first three words of the last sentence in the paragraph below is what tickles everyones' mind which makes understanding the Arabic of Quran rather challenging and the confusion arising thenceforth. The author of that website should elaborate on it.

                  "Don't draw something out that is not there. When you have to embellish on a word to make it mean what you think it means, most chances are it doesn't mean that. The connection should be clear. Get solid evidence to demonstrate that a word may not mean what many think it to mean."

                    Peace all,

                    What do you guys think of this one?

                    http//kitaabun.com/shopping3/product_info.php?products_id=1764

                    It's very cheap (?12.00) and has a sample page (which I like very much), near the bottom.

                    Downside, don't know if it's available in the U.S.

                      peace Imran,

                      The sample page looks very good. They seem to be located in the UK, if so, and they dont deliver to the US, I can send you a copy if you want. Same goes for anyone else.

                      All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

                        Peace Wakas,

                        I had a feeling you'd say that

                        EDIT TO ADD
                        It seems it's available in the US as well. http//www.onlineislamicstore.com/b9288.html

                        I am going to try to see (first) if I can get the Zaheen Fatima Baig version (from family in Pakistan), and I, of course, would make the same offer to others.

                        This is a good one as well. I have seen this in the local islamic book stores.

                        The thing is I got the tip to search for 'quran word for word' from one of your Studyquran pages....Domino effect...
