    34 From before as a guidance for the people, and He sent down the
    Criterion. Those who rejected God?s revelations, they will have a painful
    retribution, and God is Noble, extracting in Revenge.
    IS THE WORD "EXTRACTING" OR "EXACTING" ?

    326 Say ?Our god, Possessor of kingship; you grant kingship to whom
    You please, and revoke kingship from whom You please, and honor whom
    You please, and humiliate whom You please; in Your hand is goodness.
    You are capable of all things.?

    IN THIS VERSE god DOES NOT START WITH A CAPITAL "G"

    329 Say ?If you hide what is in your chests or you reveal it, God will
    know.? And He knows what is in the heavens and what is in the Earth;
    and God is capable of all things.
    SHOULD IT NOT BE "WHETHER" INSTEAD OF "IF" AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VERSE ?

    349 And as a messenger to the Children of Israel ?I have come to you
    with a sign from your Lord; that I create for you from clay the form of a
    bird, then I blow into it and it becomes a bird by God?s leave, and I heal
    the blind and the leapers, and give life to the dead by God?s leave, and I
    prophesize for you what you shall eat and....
    WHO ARE THE LEAPERS ? DID YOU NOT MEAN LEPERS ?

    3161 It was not for any prophet that he should embezzle, and he who embezzles
    will be brought with what he has embezzled on the Day of Resurrection, then
    every soul will be given what it has earned without being wronged.
    IF YOU LOOK AT THE ACTUAL VERSE IN THE PDF FILE , THE FIRST LINE HAS NO SPACE BETWEEN
    THE WORDS.

    3163 They are grades with God, and God is seer of what they do.
    MAY BE "THERE ARE GRADES" ??? IS REALLY A "THEY" THAT IS THERE ?
    IS THERE NO WORD MISSING ???
    MAY "IN" BEFORE "GRADES" ????

    3184 If they reject you, then messengers before you were also rejected;
    they came with proofs and scriptures and the book of enlightenment.
    I HAVE SEEN IN 2 PLACES THAT WHAT HAS BEEN TRANSLATED INTO SCRIPTURES
    IN THIS VERSE COULD ACTUALLY REFER TO THE PSALMS. PLEASE
    COULD ANY ARABIC SPEAKING ONE ANALYZE THAT VERSE AGAIN ?

    ALSO IS "book of enlightenment" not meant to be written with capital letters
    as in "Book of Englightenment" ? does this not refer to a scripture preceding the Qur'an ?

    QURAN MEANS RECITATION, WHY IS IT NOT TRANSLATED ACCORDINGLY IN THE TEXT ??
    TO ME IT MAKES MORE SENSE. IT CONVEYS THE MEANING THAT IT IS A RECITATION
    AND THAT IT PROBABLY SHOULD BE RECITED TO INSTEAD OF JUST READING IN THE MIND.
    WHAT DO YOU THINK ? WHY DO U THINK THAT ??

      53 Forbidden to you is that which is already dead, and the blood,
      and the meat of pig, and what was sacrificed to other than God, and that
      which has been strangled, and that which has been beaten to death, and
      that which has fallen from a height, and that which has been gored, and
      that which the wild animals have eaten from except what you managed
      to rescue, and what has been slaughtered on alters, and what you divide
      by the arrows of chance.
      MAY BE "ALTARS" INSTEAD OF "ALTERS" WAS MEANT HERE

      511 O you who believe, recall God?s blessings upon you when a group
      desired to aggress against you, and He restrained their hands from you.
      And reverence God. And in God the believers should put their trust.
      IS "AGRESS AGAINST" GOOD ENGLISH ???

      IS IT TRUE THAT THE EXPRESSION TRANSLATED AS ETERNALLY IN THE CASE OF
      HELL MEANS A LONG TIME ?????
      make a search on the net to find where u saw that.

      569 Surely those who believe; and those who are Jewish, and the
      Sabians, and the Nazarenes, whomever of them believes in God and the
      Last Day and does good work; then they will have nothing to fear nor will
      they grieve.
      MAY BE AN "S" IS NEEDED AT THE END OF "WORK" ===> "GOOD WORKS"

      5100 Say ?The bad and the good are not equal, even if the abundance of
      the bad pleases you.? So be aware of God, O you who have understanding,
      that you may succeed

      "PLEASES YOU" ? MAY BE "IMPRESSES YOU" ???

      5110 God said ?O Jesus son of Mary, recall My blessings upon you and
      your mother that I supported you with the Holy Spirit; you spoke to the
      people in the cradle and to middle-age;

      WHAT DOES "MIDDLE AGE" IN ARABIC ?

      5114 Jesus son of Mary, said ?Our Lord and god, send down to us a
      feast from heaven, that it becomes a joy to us from the first to the last, and
      a sign from You, and provide for us, you are the best provider.?
      SHOULD the P of 'provider' be in capital letter ?

        626 And they are deterring others from it, and keeping away themselves;
        but they will only destroy themselves, yet they do not notice.
        IN THE PDF FILE, THE FIRST LINE OF THIS VERSE DOES NOT HAVE SPACES BETWEEN THE WORDS

        6124 And if a sign comes to them they say ?We will not believe until
        we are given the same as what God?s messengers were given!? God is fully
        aware where He makes His message; those criminals will have debasement
        with God and a painful retribution for what they had schemed.
        IS THERE NOT A "OF" MISSING AFTER "AWARE" ??

          925 God has granted you victory in many battles. And on the day of
          Hunayn when you were pleased with your great numbers but it did not
          help you at all, and the land became tight around you for what it held,
          then you turned to flee.
          IS THE WORD USED IN ARABIC "BATTLES" OR "BATTLEFIELDS" ??

          926 Then God sent down tranquility upon His messenger and the
          believers, and He sent down soldiers which you did not see, and He
          punished those who disbelieved. Such is the recompense of the rejecters.

          940 If you do not help him, then God has helped him. When those
          who rejected expelled him, he was one of only two, and when they were
          in the cave, he said to his friend ?Do not grieve, for God is with us.? So
          God sent down calmness over him ...

          IS THE ARABIC WORD THAT HAS BEEN TRANSLATED INTO TRANQUILITY IN 926 AND INTO
          CALMNESS IN 940 THE SAME ??? IF YES WHY HAS IT NOT BEEN RENDERED INTO THE SAME
          WORD IN ENGLISH ??

          959 And if they had only been content with what God and His
          messenger had given them, and they had said ?God suffices; God will give
          us from His bounty, and His messenger; it is to God that we desire.?
          IT IS TO GOD THAT WE DESIRE. IS THIS SENTENCE WELL PHRASED IN ENGLISH ? I TRULY WONDER.
          can you desire TO someone ??

          436 And serve God and do not set up anything with Him, and be
          kind to the parents, and the relatives, and the needy, and the neighbor
          who is of kin, and the neighbor next door, and the friend far away, and
          the traveler, and those committed to you by oath. God does not like the
          arrogant, the boastful.

          960 The charities are to go to the poor, and the needy, and those who
          work to collect them, and those whose hearts have been united, and to free
          the slaves, and those in debt, and in the cause of God, and the wayfarer. A
          duty from God, and God is Knowledgeable, Wise.

          IN THE ABOVE VERSES THERE ARE ARABIC WORD(S) THAT HAVE BEEN TRANSLATED INTO
          TRAVELER IN 436 AND WAYFARER IN 960.
          THE VERSES TO ME ARE A BIT CLOSE. SHOULD THE TRANSLATION BE THE SAME ??
          IF NO LET ME KNOW.

          983 IfGod returns you to a group of them, and they ask your permission
          to come with you, then say ?You will not come with me ever; nor will...
          SPACE CHARACTER MISSING BETWEEN "IF" AND "GOD" AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VERSE.

          9123 O you who believe, fight those who around you of the rejecters, and
          let them find strength in you; and know that God is with the righteous.
          IS THE PHRASING OF THIS SENTENCE OK ? "FIGHT THOSE WHO AROUND YOU OF THE REJECTERS"
          IS THERE NOT A "ARE" MISSING AFTER "WHO" ??

            1156 ?I have put my trust in God, my Lord and your Lord. There is
            not a creature except He will seize it by frontal lobe. My Lord is on a
            Straight Path.?
            IS THERE NO "ITS/HIS/THE" MISSING BEFORE FRONTAL LOBE ?

            1199 And they were followed by a curse in this, and on the Day of
            Resurrection. What a miserable path to follow!
            MAY BE THERE IS "WORLD" MISSING AFTER "THIS" OR SOME OTHER WORD ???
            INDEED IT IS BY DOING A COMPARISON WITH THE FOLLOWING VERSE THAT
            I MADE THAT SUGGESTION
            1160 And they were followed by a curse in this world and on the Day of
            Judgment, for ?Aad rejected their Lord. There is no more ?Aad, the people
            of Hud.

            11103 In this is a sign for he who fears the retribution of the Hereafter.
            That is a Day to which all the people will be gathered, and that is a Day
            which will witnessed.
            IS THERE A "BE" MISSING BEFORE "WITNESSED" ? PLEASE CHECK THE ARABIC VERSION.
            OR MAY BE "WILL" IS THE SUBJECT AND "WITNESSED" THE VERB ??

              390 Those who have rejected after their belief then increased in
              rejection, their repentance will not be accepted, they are the strayers.
              IS A COMMA MISSING AFTER "THEIR BELIEF" ?

              3109 And to God is all that is in heavens and in the Earth; and to God
              the events will be returned.
              IS A "THE" MISSING BEFORE "HEAVENS" ?

                4102 And if you are with them and you hold the communion for
                them, then let a group from amongst them stand with you and let them
                bring.....
                WHY IS "HOLD" USED INSTEAD OF "UPHOLD" THE COMMUNION WHEN IT WAS
                "UPHOLD BEFORE" OR IS IT A TYPO ? OR MAY BE THE WORDS IN ARABIC REALLY DIFFER
                same for 56 1087 11114 1778 2014 2945 3117 3333

                  1760 And when We said to you Your Lord has encompassed the
                  people. And We did not make the vision that We showed you except as
                  a test for the people, and tree that was cursed in the Quran. And We are
                  making them fearful, but it only increases their transgression.
                  IS THERE NOT A "THE" MISSING BEFORE "TREE" ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC FIRST.

                  1783 And if We bless mankind, he turns away and turns his side. But
                  when adversity touches him, he is ever in despair!
                  MANKIND ?? IS "HUMANING BEING" WHAT IS MEANT ?

                  1790 And they said We will not believe to you until you cause a spring
                  of water to burst from the land
                  DOES THE "TO" BEFORE THE "YOU" HAVE ITS PLACE THERE ??
                  IS IT GOOD ENGLISH TO SAY "BELIEVE TO SOMEONE" ? MAY BE "BELIEVE IN SOMEONE"
                  OR MAY BE "UNTO" WAS INTENDED ?? WHAT IS THE BEST TRANSLATION HERE ?

                  1811 So We put forth upon their ears for many years in the cave.
                  IS THERE NOT WORD MISSING HERE ? "SO WE PUT FORTH UPON THEIR EARS"
                  I DO NOT REALLY UNDERSTAND THIS SENTENCE.

                  1839 And if you enter your garden, you should have said This is
                  what God has given, there is no power except by God. You see me as
                  being less than you in wealth and in children?
                  THE PHRASING FROM THE BEGINNING TO "SAID". ARE THE TENSES RIGHT ???

                    2015 ?The Hour is coming, I am nearly keeping it hidden, so that every
                    soul will be recompensed with what is strived.?
                    THE WORD BEFORE "STRIVED" SHOULD IT BE "IS" OR "IT" ? ANALYSIS ANYONE ?

                    20117 So We said ?O Adam, this is an enemy to you and your mate.
                    So do not let him take you out from the paradise, else you will have
                    hardship.?
                    CAPITAL LETTER FROM "PARADISE

                    2156 He said ?No, your lord is the Lord of heavens and Earth, the One
                    who initiated them. And I bear witness to such.?
                    HEAVENS IS MISSING ITS CAPITAL "H"

                      2568 And those who do not call on any other god with God, nor do they
                      kill the life that God has made forbidden except in justice, nor do they
                      commit adultery; and whosoever does that will receive the punishment.
                      PLEASE CAN ANYONE RE-CHECK THE TRANSLATION OF THE LAST PART OF THE VERSE.
                      IT HAS SHOCKED ME I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE A "NOT" BEFORE "RECEIVE"

                      2572 And those who do not bear false witness, and if they pass by vein
                      talk they pass by with dignity.
                      "VEIN" OR "VAIN" TALK ?

                      2574 And those who say ?Our Lord, grant us from our mates and our
                      progeny what will be the comfort of our eyes, and make us role models
                      the righteous.?
                      IS THERE NOT A "FOR" MISSING BEFORE "THE RIGHTEOUS" ?

                      2649 He said ?Have you believed to him before I permitted you? He
                      is surely your
                      "BELIEVE IN" OR "BELIEVE TO"

                      2670 When he said to his father and his people ?What do you
                      worship??
                      THE WORD TRANSLATED AS WORSHIP, IS IT THE SAME AS THE ONE TRANSLATED AS SERVE IN

                        2850 But if they fail to respond to you, then know that they follow only
                        their desires. And who is more astray than one who follows his desire,
                        without guidance from God? God does not guide the wicked people.
                        PLEASE CHECK THE ARABIC VERSION TO SEE IF THE SECOND "DESIRE" IS NOT MEANT TO BE PLURAL

                        2855 And if they come across vain talk, they disregard it and say ?To
                        us are our deeds, and to you is your deeds. Peace be upon you. We do not
                        seek the ignorant.?
                        PLEASE CHECK IF IT IS NOT MEANT TO BE "TO YOU ARE YOUR DEEDS" INSTEAD OF
                        "TO YOU IS YOUR DEEDS"

                        2917 ?You are worshipping nothing but idols besides Him, and you are
                        creating fabrications. Those that you worship besides God do not possess
                        for you any provisions, so seek with God the provision and serve Him and
                        be thankful to Him; to Him you will return.?
                        PLEASE CHECK IN THE ARABIC VERSION WHETHER THE SECOND "PROVISION" SHOULD BE PLURAL

                        3331 Any whosoever of you is dutiful to God and His messenger, and
                        does good works, We will grant her double the recompense, and We have
                        prepared for her a generous provision.
                        "ANY WHOSOEVER" IS THAT GOOD ENGLISH ?

                        3356 God and His angels commune over prophet. O you who believe,
                        you shall commune over him, and comply completely.
                        IS THERE NOT A "THE" MISSING BEFORE PROPHET ?

                        349 Have they not seen to all that is before them and behind them,
                        in the heaven and the Earth?
                        IS "SEEN TO " GOOD ENGLISH ?
                        DO WE SAY "SEE TO SOMETHING" OR "SEE SOMETHING" ?

                        3416 But they turned away, so We sent them a destructive flash flood,
                        and We substituted their two gardens into two gardens of rotten fruits,
                        thorny plants, and a skimpy harvest.
                        CAN WE SAY "SUBSTITUTE INTO " ? I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT "SUBSTITUTE WITH/BY"

                        3432 Those who were mighty will say to those who were weak ?Did
                        we turn you away from the guidance after it had come to you? No, it was
                        you who were criminal.?
                        MAY BE AN "S" AT THE END OF CRIMINAL ?

                          HAS IT BEEN TRANSLATED THE SAME EVERYWHERE ELSE

                          4049 And those who are in Fire will say to the guardians of Hell ?Call
                          upon your Lord to reduce for us the retribution, by just one day!?
                          "THE" MISSING BEFORE "FIRE" ??

                          "DEVOTING THE SYSTEM FOR HIM" OR "DEVOTING THE SYSTEM TO HIM" ?

                          days, and you set up equals with Him. This is Lord of the worlds.?

                          4517 And We gave them clarity in the matter, but then they disputed
                          after the knowledge had come to them, out ofjealousy amongst themselves.

                          "COMMAND" OR "COMMANDED" ? CAN ANYONE PLEASE CHECK ARABIC VERSION ?

                          IS "PAY ATTENTION" THE EXPRESSION TRANSLATED IN OTHER PLACES AS "TAKE HEED" ?

                            755 No, man desires that he continue committing sins.
                            "S" MISSING AT THE END OF "CONTINUE" ? IS IT GOOD ENGLISH

                            8316 Then they will be entered into the Hell.
                            THERE IS "THE" BEFORE HELL. IT IS NOT OFTEN THAT IT HAPPENS , NO ?
                            WHY A "THE" THIS TIME ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC.

                            8325 They are given drink from a pure sealed vial.
                            MAY BE THERE IS A MISSING "TO" BEFORE "DRINK" OR MAY BE SOME OTHER WORD ??

                            842 And it permits its Lord, and is ready.
                            THE SKY PERMITS ITS LORD ? DOES THAT MEAN THE SKY HAS POWER OVER LORD ( WHICH I
                            DO NOT BELIEVE) ?? ARE YOU SURE THIS IS THE RIGHT TRANSLATION ?

                            1025 No, if only you had the knowledge of certainty.
                            1026 You would then see Hell.
                            1027 Then you will see it with the eye of certainty.
                            1028 Then you will be questioned, on that Day, about the blessings.
                            LOOK AT THE TENSE OF 1027. COULD ANY ONE CHECK THE ARABIC ORIGINAL TO SEE WHETHER
                            IT WOULD BE BEST TO HAVE "YOU WOULD SEE IT" INSTEAD OF "YOU WILL SEE IT" ??

                              618 They wish to put out God?s light with their mouths. But God will
                              continue with His light, even if the rejecters dislike it.
                              THERE ARE VERSES QUITE SIMILAR TO THIS ONE.
                              ARE THEY USING THE SAME WORDS IN ARABIC OR ARE THERE DIFFERENCES ?
                              ESPECIALLY "DISLIKE" IS "HATE" IN ANOTHER VERSE 932
                              ESPECIALLY "PUT OUT" IS "EXTINGUISH" IN VERSE 932

                              6110 ?O you who believe, shall I lead you to a trade that will save you
                              from painful retribution??
                              IS THERE NO "A" MISSING BEFORE "PAINFUL" ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC

                              637 They are the ones who say ?Do not spend on those who are with
                              the messenger of God, unless they abandon him!? And to God belongs
                              the treasures of the heavens and the Earth, but the hypocrites do not
                              comprehend.
                              SHOULD BELONG HAS AN "S" AS IT IS "THE TREASURES OF ... THE EARTH" THAT BELONG ?

                              6311 And God will not delay any soul if its time has come. And God is
                              Expert to all that you do.
                              SOMETIMES "IN" FOLLOWS EXPERT , SOMETIMES "OVER",
                              COULD YOU PLEASE IN THE ARABIC THAT THE WORDS ARE DIFFERENT AS WE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT
                              TRANSLATIONS ?

                              642 He is the One who created you, then among you there is the
                              rejecter, and among you is the believer. And God is Seer over what you
                              do.
                              IS THERE A "THERE" MISSING IN "AND AMONG YOU IS THE BELIEVER" ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC

                              673 He created seven skies in layers. You do not see any imperfection
                              in the creation by the Almighty. Keep looking; do you see any flaw?
                              7115 ?Did you not see how God created seven skies in layers??
                              IS SKY THE SAME AS HEAVEN ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC VERSION
                              TO SEE THE ORIGINAL WORDS. IF YES ( SKY = HEAVEN ), THEN WHY IS IT ANOTHER WORD DIFFERENT FROM HEAVEN
                              THAT IS USED HERE ? ALSO THERE MAY BE OTHER VERSES WHERE SKY IS USED FOR HEAVEN.

                              7121 Noah said ?My Lord, they have disobeyed me and have followed
                              whose money and children only increased him in loss.?
                              IS THERE NO WORD MISSING AFTER "FOLLOWED" ?

                              7128 ?My Lord, forgive me, and my parents, and whoever enters my
                              home as a believer, and to the believing men and believing women; and
                              do not increase the wicked except in destruction.?
                              IS THE "TO" BEFORE "THE BELIEVING MEN" IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE.
                              IS IT GOOD ENGLISH ?

                                560 Say ?Shall I inform you of worse than this as a punishment from
                                God? Those whom God cursed and became angry at them, and He made
                                from them apes and pigs and servants of evil. Those have a worst place
                                and are more astray from the right path.?

                                SHOULD IT NOT BE " A WORSE PLACE" INSTEAD OF "A WORST PLACE" ?

                                5111 ?And I inspired the disciples that you shall believe in Me and
                                My messenger; they said ?We believe, and bear witness that we have
                                submitted.??

                                do we have missing quotes before YOU and after MESSENGER ?

                                572 Rejecters indeed are those who have said ?God is the Messiah
                                son of Mary!? And the Messiah said ?O Children of Israel, serve God, my
                                Lord and your Lord. Whoever sets-up partners with God, then God will
                                forbid Paradise for him, and his destiny will be the Fire; and the wicked
                                will have no supporters.?
                                IS A FULL STOP OR SEMI COLON REQUIRED AFTER or is there nothing in the Arabic version

                                  134 And on Earth are neighboring pieces of land with gardens of
                                  grape and plants and palm trees, some of which may be twin sharing the
                                  same root, or single, even though they are being watered with the same
                                  water source; and We make preference for some of them over others in
                                  what they consume. In that are signs for a people who comprehend.
                                  SHOULD THERE BE AN "S" AT THE END "GRAPE" ?

                                  WHAT IS THE ARABIC WORD TRANSLATED INTO PATIENT/PATIENCE ?

                                  1335 The example of Paradise that the righteous have been promised,
                                  is that rivers flow beneath it, and its provisions are continuous as is its
                                  shade. Such is the abode of those who were righteous, while the abode of
                                  the rejecters is the Fire.
                                  WHAT IS THE ARABIC WORD THAT IS TRANSLATED INTO "EXAMPLE"
                                  SOME HAVE TRANSLATED IT INTO "ALLEGORY". IS IT A BETTER TRANSLATION THAN "EXAMPLE" ?
                                  OR IS "EXAMPLE" THE BETTER TRANSLATION ??

                                  1412 ?And why should we not place our trust in God, when He has
                                  guided us our path. And we will be patient to the harm you inflict upon
                                  us. And in God those who trust should put their trust.?
                                  IS THERE NOT A WORD MISSING AFTER "US" AND BEFORE "OUR PATH" ?
                                  SOME PEOPLE HAVE TRANSLATED PATH IN A PLURAL FORM. IS IT REALLY
                                  "PATHS" IN THE ARABIC ORIGINAL ?

                                  1593 Regarding what they use to do.
                                  IS THERE NOT A "D" MISSING AT THE END OF "USE" ?

                                  16101 And if We exchange a verse in place of another verse; and God is
                                  more aware of what He is revealing; they say ?You are making this up!?
                                  Alas, most of them do not know.
                                  COULD THE WORD THAT HAS BECOME "VERSE" MEAN "SIGN" ???

                                    to God; God?s hand is above their hands. Those of them who violate such
                                    a pledge, are violating it only upon themselves. And whosoever fulfills
                                    what he has pledged to God, then He will grant him a great reward.
                                    4811 The Nomads who lagged behind will say to you ?We were preoccupied
                                    with our money and our family, so ask forgiveness for us.? They say with their
                                    tongues what is not in their hearts. Say ?Who then would possess any power
                                    for you against God if He wanted harm to afflict you or if He wanted benefit
                                    for you?? No, God is fully Aware of everything you do.
                                    FONT FACE AND SIZE HAVE BEEN CHANGED FOR THESE VERSES. WHY ? SHOULD WE NOT KEEP
                                    A UNIFORMIZED FONT FACE AND SIZE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE TEXT ?

                                    4816 Say to those Nomads who lagged behind ?You will be called on
                                    to fight a people who are very powerful in warfare, unless they surrender.
                                    Then if you obey, God will grantyou a good reward, but if you turn away as
                                    you turned away before, He will punish you with a painful retribution.?
                                    "GRANTYOU" IS NOT ONE WORD, MISSING SPACE CHARACTER

                                    Your Lord is with vast forgiveness. He has been fully aware of you since
                                    He initiated you from the Earth, and while you were embryos in your
                                    mothers wombs...
                                    IS THERE NOT AN APOSTROPHE MISSING AFTER THE "S" OF "MOTHERS" ?

                                    5336 Or was he not informed of the teachings in the Scriptures of Moses?
                                    IS "SCRIPTURES" MEANT TO BE PLURAL ? IS IT PLURAL IN THE ARABIC VERSION ?

                                    5337 And of Abraham who fulfilled?

                                    5443 Are your rejecters better than those? Or have you been absolved
                                    by the scriptures?
                                    IS "SCRIPYURES" PLURAL IN THE ARABIC VERSION ?

                                    5452 And everything they had done, is in the scriptures.
                                    IS "SCRIPTURES" PLURAL IN THE ARABIC VERSION ?

                                      3356 God and His angels commune over prophet. O you who believe,
                                      you shall commune over him, and comply completely.
                                      IS THERE A MISSING "THE" BEFORE PROPHET ?

                                      3446 Say ?I advise you to do one thing that you stand to God, in pairs
                                      and as individuals, then reflect. There is no madness in your friend, he is
                                      only a warner to you in the face of a severe retribution.?
                                      IS IT AN "AND" OR AN "OR" before "as individuals"
                                      can you please check in arabic ?

                                      3510 Whosoever is seeking pride, then know that to God belongs all
                                      Pride. To Him ascend the good words, and He elevates the good deed.
                                      And as for those who scheme evil, they will have a painful retribution,
                                      and their scheming will fail.
                                      is the word translated as "PRIDE" pride or dignity ?
                                      could any one check in Arabic ?

                                        16120 Abraham was a nation, dutiful to God, a monotheist, and he was
                                        not of those who set up partners.
                                        ABRAHAM WAS A NATION ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC TO SEE IF THE TRANSLATION IS CORRECT

                                        3220 And as for those who were wicked, their abode is the Fire. Every
                                        time they try to leave it, they will be put back in it, and it will be said to
                                        them ?Taste the retribution of the Fire in which you used to deny.?
                                        IN which you used to DENY ? is that english ? or is there in the arabic version
                                        some specific word that leads you to add IN

                                        3333 You shall settle down in your homes, and do not go about like
                                        in the olden days of ignorance. You shall hold the communion, and
                                        contribute towards betterment, and obey God and His messenger. God
                                        wishes to remove any affliction from you, O people of the Dwelling, and
                                        to purify you completely.
                                        WHAT DOES OLDEN MEAN ? OR IS IT A MISTAKE ?

                                        419 Say ?You are rejecting the One who created the Earth in two
                                        days, and you set up equals with Him. This is Lord of the worlds."
                                        IS THERE NO "THE" MISSING BEFORE "LORD" ?

                                        2284 To God is what is in the heavens and in Earth, and if you declare
                                        what is in your souls or hide it, God will call you to account for it. He
                                        will forgive whom He wishes, and punish whom He wishes, and God is
                                        capable of all things.

                                        WOULD A "WHETHER" NOT BE PREFERABLE TO THE "IF" ???

                                        1026 To those who do good work will be good and more, and their faces
                                        will not be darkened or humiliated. These are the people of Paradise, in it
                                        they will abide.

                                        3106 The Day on which faces will be whitened and faces will be
                                        blackened; as for those whose faces will be blackened ?Did you reject
                                        after believing? Taste the retribution for what you rejected.?
                                        3960 And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied about
                                        God their faces will be blackened. Is there not an abode in Hell for the
                                        arrogant ones?

                                        COMPARE 1026 WITH 3106 AND 3960. "DARKENED" IS USED IN THE FIRST AND
                                        "BLACKENED" IN THE FOLLOWING TWO. IS THE WORD IN ARABIC THE SAME OR IS IT
                                        DIFFERENT ?

                                          Good point; but I would say it will deepen the division between us and the other Moslems. If you leave it that way, it will not effect the Message.

                                          The thing is I am not and I think we should not try to comply with what has happened so far.
                                          our aim should be truth. and truth is not democratic. the number of people supporting an idea
                                          will not make a falsehood , truth.
                                          moreover, Quantity is not necessarily Quality.
                                          All I have in mind is accuracy.

                                          Peace
