      Salaam brother,

      To be honest with you, I find your posts most of time very difficult to read. You use to much grammar terms, for persons whom English is already bad and are not familiar with Arabic and Arabicgrammar it is way to hard. Well I actually speaking for myself here but I guess there are more illiterate people like me on this forum who might find it very hard to read. Maybe simpler versions of your studies (thus without all that grammar) is a good idea for the forum.

      Also, I find your translations of The Quran verses very unusual, you insert a lot of things in your translations which are simply not there. I am not sure if that is a wise thing to do.

      Salaam,
      Bender

        Thanks Bender,

        Your suggestion is to make it "reader friendly". This is what was done by majority of the translators who had their audience and target group in mind. I do not have this consideration in mind. I do not insert anything which is not there in the text. I wish it is pointed out, if any in the above article. Since the translation might seem unusual with reference to many many available on line, it necessitates detailed grammatical analysis. The detailed grammatical analysis has all along been available for translators, but for convenience sake, they seem to have deliberately ignored it to earn good feedback and response from their clientele by not involving them to apply their own intellect while reading the text of Qur'aan. Such authors who give an impression to the reader that he is using his intellect, while he is just floating on the text, are appreciated by majority and become popular.
        Authors who force their reader to apply his own intellect and ponder on everyline before moving forward, are seldom appreciated.

        Easygoing study yeilds nothing except placing in mind that which was thrown in front of them by others

          Salaam Mazhar,

          I also find your site difficult to read, but I appreciate very much the effort and great work. bravo

          Maybe one suggestion is to change the format of the site, and make it more neat and bigger font, and somehow visually more friendly if possible? Just a suggestion, because it is somewhat tiring to browse thru it, although a good thing is that the click opens a new page... )

          Thank you Bender for bringing this up peace

          Peace
