    but you said those who were not given the book earlier, thats how you have translated it. I am still talking about 278 here.

    Your translation
    And among Bani Iesraa'eel are such commoners who do not know the Book, except wishful/hopeful hearsay/conjectural myths made known and popular in society
    and/as such that they do nothing except conjecturing/supposing/assuming

    You are mixing up the things 278 and 320 and 7157. 278 is only talking about Bani Israel. 320 talks about two groups, the People of the Messenger and those who were given earlier the Book, Bani Israel.

      why it is not false ? first he wrote "cry" and there is no word there means cry, the second thing he wrote "who is the magician?" and there is no mentioning of any magician in the verse neither in the whole chapter, so it is False.

      Saying that someone was making a false translation implies they were willfully making a lie against the quran. That's a big accusation. Do you have evidence that someone was willfully doing so?

        I've said I'm Arab, yet you're asking for a substandiated .

        I've said that I've looked for it in "Ibn Abbass" the best interpreters of Quran, yet you're saying that he is guilty .

        Are you with a mental disease ? . Let me remind you that every word in your translation in your website is wrong. and one more thing you shouldn't translate Quran word by word.

        You're not Arab and you jump giving false statements, you gave interpretation from your own understandings and your own desires and you can't even differ between two words have the same letters. please give it a break. I've had enough of your posts and you will mislead people with you .

        Unless you are a scholar of arabic and the quran, your arabic is of your own opinion and your own people.

          No, I didn't say he was lying but making a mistake can be too dangerous for someone following his translation, and translate the verses of Quran in a wrong way, is too dangerous for him and for the people that will read his translation.

          By the way it's forbidden translate Quran word by word and verse by verse, the translator must just give you the meaning of the verse but not translate the verse.

            well, I've studied Arabic from birth to now and about Quran I found no problem in understanding the verses and its meanings and the message that God wanted to deliver, let alone that I have the book of the best and the famous interpreters of Quran.

                Is that your new way of verbal Irony ?

                why, and where, is it 'forbidden' to translate Quran word for word?

                Because you should realize that, for all Muslims, the text you are reading is quite literally the voice of God; because the Qur'an is the direct speech of God in Arabic, translation of the work is seen as blasphemy, as an unforgivable tampering with God's own speech. In addition to this the translators will expand the word of God and make mistakes and the verse will take different meanings (look at the huge number of translator), let alone that some sentences with a difficult grammar and situation and the translator will be wrong in his translation because Grammar play a good rule in the meaning of the verse. That's why you should just translate the meaning of the verse not the verse word by word .

                  I totally understand this is the word of God, I have no doubts about that. I dont agree that 'translation' is blesphemay though as Quran IS for all and God knows ALL cannot speak Arabic, so for us lesser mortals not born Arabic speaking we have to have a 'translation' of those words. Translating 'the meaning' is more of a blasphemy if you think about it, as we are getting the 'translators' meaning of the words. Looking at, and trying to understand the actual 'words' in Arabic does give a better understanding 'of the meaning' though.

                  I asked also where it was forbidden, you answered why but not where, seems the answer is that it is not forbidden in Quran so does that mean you are making haram that which God did not make haram?

                    Yes, that's why you should just take the meaning in your own language and by learning Arabic you'll take the verse word by word because at this time, you'll approach what you take as a meanings with what God said. Anyways the age of our existence I think make it necessary to translate it like this way and God knows.

                    I asked also where it was forbidden, you answered why but not where, seems the answer is that it is not forbidden in Quran so does that mean you are making haram that which God did not make haram?

                    I said it is forbidden from Islamic point of view because you changed the size of the verse and the change of the words also, I didn't say it is Haram. it can be "" and that's what I mean by forbidden. The "" is not the Haram.
                    about your question where, I think this verse will answer you

Anyways the age of our existence I think make it necessary to translate it like this way and God knows.

                      To get the 'meaning' in my language is better for me to look at the 'words' in Arabic and the 'translation' in English of those words, that means I can put together those words and their English 'meanings' so I can understand.

                      There is enough fighting between native Arab speaking 'scholars' what is the 'meaning' in the words anyway, so in a tranlation of the 'meaning' I am getting whoevers 'interpretation' of that 'meaning' and they can all be different as we have seen. Also to translate the 'meaning' of the verses the translator needs to be perfect in Arabic and English to get that 'meaning' across IN English.

                      I said it is forbidden from Islamic point of view because you changed the size of the verse and the change of the words also, I didn't say it is Haram. it can be "" and that's what I mean by forbidden. The "" is not the Haram.
                      you said forbidden. now you say forbidden from and Islamic viewpoint. I haven't changed ANYTHING so please dont accuse me of changing the size of the verse or the words. You stated it is forbidden to translate word by word and I asked you why and where.

                      Forbidden = haram
                      unadvisable = makrooh

                      about your question where, I think this verse will answer you

                      ) &#1615 (115)

                      No it doesnt as you have posted the verse number only and not which sura it is from.

                        ok found the sura

                        None can change His words has nothing to do with tranlsating them but has a lot to do with how they are 'manipulated' as they are constantly BY Arab speakers. However it is translated the Arabic words remain the same but there is clear warning that this manipulation of the words has been done before by Jews and Christians. God said the very same thing in Torah that His words will have nothing added to or taken away from, but what came from the tongues of those in charge DID change the words or the meanings, as it does now.

                          I just want from you to be frank in what you said as a verbal irony . if you don't want, fine. I'll not blame you.

                          that's good ,but I prefer take the meanings of the words and let the words of the verse until you learn Arabic.It'll be better for my opinion .

                          There is enough fighting between native Arab speaking 'scholars' what is the 'meaning' in the words anyway, so in a tranlation of the 'meaning' I am getting whoevers 'interpretation' of that 'meaning' and they can all be different as we have seen. Also to translate the 'meaning' of the verses the translator needs to be perfect in Arabic and English to get that 'meaning' across IN English.

                          Yes, I agree . But look at Mazhar, he translated the words without even differ between two words in Arabic have the same letters.

                          you said forbidden. now you say forbidden from and Islamic viewpoint. I haven't changed ANYTHING so please dont accuse me of changing the size of the verse or the words. You stated it is forbidden to translate word by word and I asked you why and where.
                          Forbidden = haram
                          unadvisable = makrooh

                          ok, so I just gave you the wrong word in english but my aim is to say Makrouh(unadvisable). But forbidden is not Haram in our language . forbidden is "" this word is not Haram and it means that it is restricted or banned. The word Haram is too powerful and there no doubt in it.

                          No it doesnt as you have posted the verse number only and not which sura it is from.

                          I posted the name of the surah with the number of the verse, the name of surah is an Arabic .
                          but don't worry here it is 115(Al-Anam=6). "the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can change His Words. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower."

                            well, I've studied Arabic from birth to now and about Quran I found no problem in understanding the verses and its meanings and the message that God wanted to deliver, let alone that I have the book of the best and the famous interpreters of Quran.

                            wow reading and studying from the cradle, im impressed

                            I would say it was sarcasm rather than irony. You said you have studied from birth, were you reading at a day old? week old? month old? ;D No one reads and studies from birth and according to your profile you are only 21 years old. my being impressed was sarcasm, not irony.

                            that's good ,but I prefer take the meanings of the words and let the words of the verse until you learn Arabic.It'll be better for my opinion .
                            I am doing both. I have read Quran 'translation of the meaning of' a few times and now im looking at specific words in Arabic which is helping me to learn Arabic AND Quran ;D

                            Yes, I agree . But look at Mazhar, he translated the words without even differ between two words in Arabic have the same letters.
                            This is a bit like me, a native English speaker, learning Chinese and translating the Arabic Quran into Chinese when I would be better translating into English rather than Chinese.

                            ok, so I just gave you the wrong word in english but my aim is to say Makrouh(unadvisable). But forbidden is not Haram in our language . forbidden is "" this word is not Haram and it means that it is restricted or banned. The word Haram is too powerful and there no doubt in it.

                            Ok but restricted or banned are similar meaning to forbidden, forbidden is stronger and is used in Quran where it says haram in Arabic so this is why I asked. According to dictionaries haram and mamnoor (ok i know thats not correct!) both mean forbidden (among other things), I suppose one would have to be native to understand which is used and where.

                            I posted the name of the surah with the number of the verse, the name of surah is an Arabic .
                            but don't worry here it is 115(Al-Anam=6). "the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can change His Words. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower."

                            Already done it thank you. I did manage to read the sura name in Arabic sun im getting better yay

                              ah lol, I emphisis the situation >>> it's like a metaphore the fact that Arabic is in my vains ) .

                              I am doing both. I have read Quran 'translation of the meaning of' a few times and now im looking at specific words in Arabic which is helping me to learn Arabic AND Quran ;D

                              Good, so try at the same time see what's written in hadiths(the Arabic version), I think you'll not find anything disagree with Quran and God knows, and your concept of detailed and completed will be changed because in Arabic view is not what you think. There is a lot meaning of detailed in Arabic. And just one advice don't take lessons from websites wheher the lessons are Arabic or are about Quran , I suggest to buy books or go learn in a school.

                              This is a bit like me, a native English speaker, learning Chinese and translating the Arabic Quran into Chinese when I would be better translating into English rather than Chinese.

                              that was funny, I like it.

                              look when an Arabic man hears Haram, his all attentions get straight to you, like someone says to him watch out the car will crash you . But when he hears forbidden, the case will be more lower and he can just use his ears alone .

                              Already done it thank you. I did manage to read the sura name in Arabic sun im getting better yay

                              You're welcome handshake

                                I have Bukhari set of books in English and Arabic collecting dust on a bookshelf.

                                I will look at those Quran verses again but I am surprised as an Arab Muslim you are saying Quran is not complete and detailed as IMHO it cannot be from Allah, the Creator, if it is NOT complete and detailed.

                                And just one advice don't take lessons from websites wheher the lessons are Arabic or are about Quran , I suggest to buy books or go learn in a school.
                                I learn from many many sources not just one. I read many websites and have many many books and have also studied Islam in UK, I was NOT impressed by the course OR the tutors OR the books of the course. I know what is taught as Islam by the vast majority who claim to be teaching Islam and I dont accept it. That is why I am here.

                                I am very VERY careful as I have already had one belief twisted out of recognition from how it was supposed to be and I will NOT have Islam pushed to me as something I do not believe it is, as how it is taught throughout the world. This is why I am here.

                                look when an Arabic man hears Haram, his all attentions get straight to you, like someone says to him watch out the car will crash you . But when he hears forbidden, the case will be more lower and he can just use his ears alone .
                                ok I understand but this word in English is 'forbidden' as in 'absolutely not allowed'. Forbidden = Haram.
                                I think the meaning for YOU as an Arab is that the word Haram is an instant recognition that it is from God and that is how the word is used, hence you get all his attention, although many do still use it in a lesser important way which IS making haram that which God did not. (hope that makes sense)

                                Forbidden in English is also an absolute 'no no' and is also used to say what God 'forbids' but is also used as something that has nothing to do with God. Possibly because we have had no 'message' in English where a word would be stuck to meaning something related to God, like Haram is.

                                does that make sense? hmm

                                  I have Bukhari set of books in English and Arabic collecting dust on a bookshelf.

                                  So, if you find any hadith that claimed that he is against Quran put it in a topic and I'll answer you if God willing.

                                  I will look at those Quran verses again but I am surprised as an Arab Muslim you are saying Quran is not complete and detailed as IMHO it cannot be from Allah, the Creator, if it is NOT complete and detailed.

                                  No, don't be surprised we believe that The Quran is fully completed and divine source and detailed in everything, you don't know how God stated everything in a small sentence. However what is completed and detailed must be understood and interpreted and made other detaield issues go with what is already detailed . I really can't find the word in english and if I did gave you the words in Arabic, the translation will just be just for the words not for the meaning. I always say to people that Arabic is a language of meanings.

                                  I learn from many many sources not just one.

                                  ok, so Good luck and hope the best wishes for you in finding your real path.

                                  Yes, it makes sense, fully sense .

                                    All languages are languages of meanings. you put words together to get sentences that 'mean' something. I am fully aware how God managed to say an incredible amount in a small sentence too.

                                    The problem here is your use of English words, although you do have a very good command of English you do not have a good command of its 'usage' and thats where we go wrong in how you explain and how I understand. 'Complete' and 'fully detailed' cannot (in English) mean there is something missing, which you seem to be implying here. It cannot mean some parts are complete and detailed and other parts are not, and it cannot mean that the verses are complete and detailed but you need another book/scholar/teacher/hadith/Phd to make it REALLY complete and detailed and make sense of it. So I am hoping to look at those verses and find a word we can both agree means something particular. sun

                                      Agreed, after all we're here for the same reason which is the truth.

                                        No, I didn't say he was lying but making a mistake can be too dangerous for someone following his translation, and translate the verses of Quran in a wrong way, is too dangerous for him and for the people that will read his translation.

                                        By the way it's forbidden translate Quran word by word and verse by verse, the translator must just give you the meaning of the verse but not translate the verse.

                                        By whom forbids the god's words to be read? You? I do not obey those who deny the god's words to be known and understood.

                                          well, I've studied Arabic from birth to now and about Quran I found no problem in understanding the verses and its meanings and the message that God wanted to deliver, let alone that I have the book of the best and the famous interpreters of Quran.

                                          Mashallah on studying arabic by birth. But did you study the quran from birth?
