Peace,
It was just an experimental translation with little regard for language. You are likely right that it refers to places where the actions described are performed. Thanks for the information. And you are likely right that they would be destroyed if it was not for God.
I still do not rely that much on dictionaries, though.

Yes this is the cause and effect. For academic translation of source language text into target language text, one has to abide by the lexicons and rules of grammar of source language. That is also the criteria to evaluate the accuracy of translator.
"Experimental translation" seems addition of a new theory to the exisiting theories of translation.But you have not yet highlighted the conveniences and liabilities of this type of translation. It is necessary because understanding the liabilities of study types offers insight into the validity of researchers' conclusions.
You say "experimental translation" requires little regard for the language. This means a different perception is preconceived and it is attempted to be associated with words of an Ayah to validate preconceveid idea idea in the eyes of readers.
-
Peace,
I apologize for an inaccurate experimental translation. I had not spent time with the passage beforehand and with the word I translated suppressed and I also misread the verb to begin with.
Experimental translation means "daring" to try philosophical approaches to the language itself to find that something is wrong. It does not go without careful cross-checking though and it is a time-consuming work despite how careless and irresponsible it may seem. And experimental translation can also be half-finished ones that are not grammatically correct, but the gist is still correct. But you were right that my take on 2240 was slightly wrong, it is likely supposed to be destroyed rather than suppressed. I cannot be entirely sure before I truly come to a careful analysis of this passage. I just touched the surface now.
By little regard I meant postponing the analysis of the circumstantial discourse, because my focus at the time was to mass-test salat on a wider application, and not necessarily best the individual verses' interpretation. Salat is a very high-importance issue, as you may have noticed, rather than absolutely accurate translations on such as 2240 which my erroneous translation would not make much difference in regard of disinformation anyway. There is no intention of spreading disinformation and if the passage that I work with would try to teach something different or bad then I would think before I posted.
It is good, however, that you gave some input on 2240. It is supposed to be a critical analysis of the text and not just blindly be through with it.
My own careful translation of the entire book called Qur'an has just come into some passages of chapter two so far. It is an exhausting work and neither dictionaries nor grammar books can be trusted (fully) and sometimes of no help at all. It is hard to translate such an abused discourse that I suspect the person who tried to interpret it, years after the prophet, was ignorant and failed to correctly interpret it at all. Suspected are the same clowns that wrote the so-called "hadith" books of Muhammad, and they also added diacritical marks and improperly added verse numbering. If I followed grammar books and dictionaries, then of course it would be much easier to translate it, but then I would simply repeat the same mistake and I could as well just skip doing it. I mostly focus on words with much stigma around them, such as salat, zakat, nikkah, sajda, rukuh and other words with "religious" connotation. They are given very imaginative and "magical" meanings just because they are involved with God and the sacred. Right now I mostly focus on "unstigmatize" them, to bring them down to Earth and what they really mean.

The ground fact is opposite to it. Almost all earlier translations little cared for the morphological and syntactic aspect of the language, although a very detailed work in these areas was available. They even substituted the Arabic words of Qur'aan to render a translation of their choice, not of the Book. Raiba was substituted with Shakka to translate it as "doubt" despite knowing that La of genus negation can't be used with Shakka.
Putting asside the grammar morphology and syntax of Arabic will yield anything except the translation of Qur'aan.

Very imaginative and "magical" meanings can go with a fictional text or poetry. Qur'aan claims it is neither fictional nor poetry. It is a non-fiction discourse. And please remember in Imperative, Injunction, Law giving sentences, never ever a word is used which can have immaginative or "magical" connotation.

Peace,

I will keep that on my mind. In my translation I am very careful with the affixes and other grammar discoveries I make. Interestingly it is nearly another book than the traditionally inferred one. The biggest progress is the minimization of multiple meanings of words. In many cases I have narrowed their meaning down to simply one. Many of the additional meanings of words create purely fictitious scenarios. Of course for a translation you have to find a few different words to use to describe the word because the two languages cannot be used in the exact same manner. And sometimes you have to paraphrase the whole phrase because it is idiomatic. "Buy something for a cheap price", is one of the idioms I have found. It is often interpreted very literally, paying little attention to the fact it is an idiom.
Qur'aan claims it is neither fictional nor poetry.
It is not. Yet people create all kinds of weirdness from their wild imagination of the interpretation of it. And words are stigmatized, given an exaggerated meaning.

This is but an error and a wrong approach. Please just read about "types of meanings of a word", you might get a book about it by google search. Like English, same is the phenomenon in Arabic, but more precise and succicnt because of different types of nouns and verbs, each of which will carry a specific meaning, despite being from the same root. One needs to put in the translation all the additional meanings added in a word by change of vowelling, prefixes, infixes and suffixes alongwith basic meanings of original consonants.

95 So when the restricted months have passed, then you may kill the polytheists wherever you find them, and take them, and surround them, and stand against them at every point. If they repent and they are mindful of the lesson/teaching and become purified, then you shall leave them alone. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Where are you people? Do you still believe in prayer for salat? Or otherwise just kill like maniacs, kill kill kill!!!
Please re-read your quote and you might find it self contradictory. You have killed the polyteists wherever you found them. Then how will they repent and become mindful of the lesson?
-
Peace,
This is but an error and a wrong approach.
That is your opinion. I find that out from the root of a word of Arabic it has very few alternative meanings. Of course the affix system causes words to receive slightly different meanings depending on perspective, but the original "mental image" always remains the same.
Please just read about "types of meanings of a word", you might get a book about it by google search.
That is because there are people like you who have conjectured a lot.
Like English, same is the phenomenon in Arabic, but more precise and succicnt because of different types of nouns and verbs, each of which will carry a specific meaning, despite being from the same root.
It is not very prevalent in Arabic compared to English, if at all. The words work their way out of a root which is a combination of letters forming a mental image of action or form. But they stay around the root's meaning even if you add affixes or make a compound word.
The cases I have encountered where they are allegedly different in meaning have been errors in interpretation. Deliberate or not I do not know.
Please re-read your quote and you might find it self contradictory. You have killed the polyteists wherever you found them. Then how will they repent and become mindful of the lesson?
It could be further contradiction within the scripture. I was just basing mine on current translations. But if they repent and become mindfully observing what they have been enlightened about then let them be. What is hard to understand? Cannot you read the gist even if you do not have a entirely accurate translation?
Rest assured I will eventually carefully go through the passage and correct it to the best of my ability.
What seems more dogmatic and zealous, and thus unrighteous? Forcing them to obey the commandments, which is so they are not treating people with oppression and injustice or force them to observe a ritualistic prayer?
You have killed the polyteists
It did not say that you have killed them, just a word to kill them. I do not understand why you are to hooked up on details? It quite easy logic, you kill them as long as they do not repent and follow the way of God, which is no oppression and injustice. I have my suspicions about the word used to kill, but as long I have no better alternative then it is kill. It does not cause any zealotry here with the understanding of holding to the enlightenment of God anyway, because you are to kill them when they are not living in the way of God. Goodness by friend.
The faith of God is about being one with God (faith) and be/do good. It falls down to that if you contract all commandments down to a watchword.

Peace Man Of Faith.
Please allow me to add the word "believe" that goes with doing good.
I know you talk a lot about doing good, we are in agreement there.
However to "believe" requires taking what GOD says seriously and following His instructions/commands without hesitation...
Sometimes we need to really be sure about our own opinions/deductions/understanding...
For example your explanation about"Shuaib" verse,I do not agree with, my understanding of it is straight forward and does not contradict "salat" .
Shuaib s people are telling him are your "Sallawat" are instructing/telling you that we should leave serving/worshiping how our parents do .i.e Perhaps He was devoting his "sallawat" to GOD Alone and they were not?
Then they add "" we will do with our provision/earnings..what we want.." this bit is to do with "zakat" and not "sallawat".
As you know GOD mentions "salat" and "zakat " together many times in Qoran.
Yes and I know that "zakat" can also mean different things in different verses!
If Shuaib message to his people was similar to most messengers ,then he was correcting their deviations from polytheism to GOD Alone?
There is no issue there?
Of course that is my understanding.
GOD bless you.
Peace. -
That is your opinion. I find that out from the root of a word of Arabic it has very few alternative meanings. Of course the affix system causes words to receive slightly different meanings depending on perspective, but the original "mental image" always remains the same.
I keep pointing out
Arabic words stem from Roots. Each Root has specific, defined, distinct, conspicuous, apparent perception folded in it . Words, originating from these Roots on various well defined patterns-moulds-structuring frames retain the original perception infolded in the Root, dominantly and conspicuously, with additional meanings and connotation, shades and colours added by the peculiar pattern-placing of vowels-syllabification and addition of consonants. Moreover, relational aspect of the semantic field will also influence and add connotations to the word. Hence; the meanings, perception and connotation of an Arabic Word is the composite whole of the perception infolded in its Root, coupled with meanings associated with its pattern, and its relation to the semantic field where it is used. It signifies that the basic meanings of a Root and word do not exhaust when they are used in a different semantic field, relational area, while necessarily retaining the base meanings. -
Peace Mazhar,
Okay okay. Thanks for your information.
Be whole

Peace good logic.
Thanks for your input, and I am verily not intending to be arrogant in my replies. But regarding iman I have also my own understanding.
I know you talk a lot about doing good, we are in agreement there.
Thank God we are.
However to "believe" requires taking what GOD says seriously and following His instructions/commands without hesitation...
I have a slightly different perspective on the phenomenon called belief/faith which is referred to in Arabic as IMAN. The Commandments are a "tool" to get faith, a way of purification and when we are purified we are whole. In fact, the word IMAN could be regarded as being whole to the Oneness that is God. All this purification that we do by adhering to the decree is done so that we are whole with God, that we are MUMINS. It is a quite advanced topic actually, and I suppose you both have to be open-minded and not so critical about it.
I suppose you ever heard the expression; "Become one with nature", it is much so with this too except that it is with The Singularity that is God and the creation is its mass. KAFIROON are anomalies/impurities within the "sphere" so to say.
What we actually build up is purity to be whole and not an anomaly to God, like a distortion or corruption.
And I do NOT, ever, hesitate to follow the commands of my Master and your Master so long that they are truthful to the decree given by God.
Sometimes we need to really be sure about our own opinions/deductions/understanding...
This is why I work day and night interpreting the discourse from cover to cover as of lately as to minimize my own guessing of what it means. The key is to make sure that every word, even verbs without substance, are interpreted as intended by the original author, i.e. God. There is a lot of words that have come clear to me since I started researching.
And the reason why I have trouble trusting the traditional interpreters is because of this passage
6116 And if you obey most of those on the earth they will lead you away from the path of God; that is because they follow conjecture, and that is because they only guess.
The problem did not end in discarding the lies about Muhammad and idolatry of the prophet. You have to discarded the faulty inferences based on that hadith too in the interpretation of the scripture that is flawed by that same logic. If one studies you can clearly see that the interpretation is tainted by the understanding from hadith.
For example your explanation about"Shuaib" verse,I do not agree with, my understanding of it is straight forward and does not contradict "salat" .
Shuaib s people are telling him are your "Sallawat" are instructing/telling you that we should leave serving/worshiping how our parents do .i.e Perhaps He was devoting his "sallawat" to GOD Alone and they were not?In a way SALAT for Shuayb here has been communication with God, and he is preaching to his people that they should be enlightened by him about God. It is a kind of correspondence that comes relayed by him to them. It is however not referred to a monotonous ritual with no (apparent) purpose (other than perhaps glorification to God). None of the cases within the recitation that is called Qur'an refer to a ritualistic prayer however, even if such a one is absolutely not forbidden, although the best prostration is done with the heart.
If Shuaib message to his people was similar to most messengers ,then he was correcting their deviations from polytheism to GOD Alone?
There is no issue there?No. What he did there we can probably agree on. But the point is that the SALAT word (derivative) is used in the passage.
Thanks for your communication and I hope God will have you purified.

Peace muslims,
Each knows its LESSON (teaching/instruction). You see they already alem (know) it in the phrase.
This is the breakthrough in interpretation of salat that I have been working on for several months.
Perhaps what you've translated 'salat' as the 'teaching/instruction' have connection with the whole system of study that I've been incorporated in the Muslim Atheism. . . ie. It is not only the 'teaching/instruction' but the 'instruction' is referring to the whole set of guidance for 'read, refine, practice and wisdom' . . "the study system". . . the theological system.
This is the primary objective and tasks of the Messenger, ie. why he was sent. . .
To reform them by 'teaching' the 'theological system' and "Although they were before in clear error" (62.2)
Quran = Theology
ie. manual to study and understand the signs of justly balanced in life and the universe etc.and it got nothing to do with religion
The Formula
It is He who has sent among the unlettered
a Messenger from themselves- reciting to them His verses and
- purifying them and
- teaching them the Book
- and wisdom
although they were before in clear error
(622)
The system of study

Peace,
It has been interesting perusing this thread, especially regarding salat.
I have some questions.
In accepting the language of quran being dependent on usage by Arabic speakers, how does one decide whether to use the way it is spoken today or in the 7th century?
If it is the way it is spoken today, then the question arises as to why God's message should be subject to the whims of how people cause their language to evolve.
If it is the way it was spoken in the 7th century, then the question arises as to how we can ascertain 7th century usage today.
I would submit that the key to acceptable translation is consistency of usage by the author.
I look forward to some responses before commenting further on roots and derivations as well as the topic of salat.

Spiritual harmony be with you,
Since I last wrote on this thread my knowledge of salat and many other Arabic words has improved dramatically and I could provide better information regarding it and other words. Kafar is not really opponent as I suggested but a deluded person, someone without foundation. Salaat(eh) means literally "Perception that be character thereby" which obviously must be put in a context. I can explain in a post tomorrow because now I am tapping on a smartphone and near bedtime. But basically I can say it means to stay in the light and not lose the perception of what is good. It often goes together with the zakaat(eh) word, for a reason.
Be of one with God
-
Peace MoF,
Before declaring what salat means it may be worthwhile considering that the root in many cases is not , but rather .
Imraan
-
Yes. But that it says as a root is because the third letter determines "cause-of-effect" of the Arabic word (just as in ketab the third letter implies cause-person-BY referring to first part of the word but since in salawa it is a conjunction it refers to "external" words). The root means "perceive definite meaning it needs a subject to refer to for description. If it was only it would merely mean "behold (something) much like means express (something), literally "express that" just as hence is "perceive that".
Hence the answer with the praying at the evil man's funeral may in fact rather refer to "attend" using the form of .
The salat(eh) word with insight actually consists of the letters but the last two form a combined letter, i.e. , but while making a deep analysis they must be separated. The alef (ا after gives the "cause-of-effect" which is referred back on oneself basically BE character thereby (which can be understood to mean to be according to the hints of how a man or woman should be found in the narration).
I yet have not put myself in front of the computer and yet tap on my smartphone so to make a better elaboration has to wait until then.
But I would urge you to understand that aqum assalat is to keep yourself and your perception focused on yourself and not lose the track.

SALAT - A return to put SALAT under the microscope
Spiritual harmony be upon you, 1CELOSTNOWFOUND
Now I took the time to boot up the computer and sit in front of it.
I briefly read the document you linked to. It is therefore quite much following the suggestion I had regarding the structure of Arabic words. The third letter generally suggests "cause-of-effect" as I call it here. in this case is one morpheme which causes the word to form the meaning of "definitely perceive", while the third letter, dependable upon what you like to say, takes a varying letter (to make a cause-of-effect) as you suggested yourself through your document.
Let me refer to your document and the examples you put forth by explaining the Arabic
-
The examples you suggested seem to point that it means to "make visible", take this for example "We cleared the grain that was mixed with dust, or earth, from the dust, or earth, by pouring water upon it", but rather than as the "Lane's Lexion" suggests it rather means that now the grain is (clearly) perceptible because you cleansed it from dust or earth. The symbol indicates a mental image of perception, and it is also a reason why the same symbol is used in the Arabic word for 'eye' since Arabic words are descriptive in form and it indicates 'perception'.
-
I do not entirely agree with the Lexion's definition of the word, but it means someone is witted, i.e. quick to react because the perception is strong. If is was as an attribute before a word for "God" then it would mean that the person is strong/determined in its perception of God.
-
Could be understood as that a person is seeing what is good. The symbol seems to refer to 'good'. This person has a perception of what is good.
-
The condition of being . The symbol refers to condition/state, and reflects upon the first part of the word since the last letter in formation of the base word gives "cause-of-effect". Perhaps "steadfast" or something could be derived from the word, or having a clear and firm possessed vision on how to perceive the world.
-
"The ass drove together his she-asses, and made them to take the way .", as in the example this an interesting example using a donkey. Simply replace the donkey with God or the image you like to follow instead and you know what "salawa" means (and thus salat(eh) as well which has the subject to thereon follow in the word structure itself).
Salaat(eh) is thus not simply one word but in fact at least four words in the same compound Sal ' a ' t ' eh, but one who knows the truth actually know that there are no real roots but the true root is the on letter level.
Hence it explains my extremely literal interpretation of it as "Perceive definite BE character thereby". Please put that "alternative" interpretation into the context of the scripture called Qur'an and you shall see that it becomes clearer whenever it occurs. And you are rid of rituals even while being faithful to the original text, because you perceive what the scripture actually talks about. Is that not wonderful?
Red Gives outcome of the first two letters and hence linking it to the following words in the compound, i.e. BE. Alef as a letter means no less than the condition of 'being'. Perceive definite BE, character thereby, with thereby (kind of object pronoun) to be a reflexive letter referring to what has just been spoken of contextually.
The last page of your PDF file I have trouble agreeing with completely.
As for I cannot agree that it means to burn
as a phrase with the word you suggested means to "feel the fire". refers to as I call it (whom depending on context) while refers to thereby and following word.
One must also remember that all the referred words starting with ought to have somewhat similar meaning. Perceive can also commonly be referred to "feel" or "sense".
Probably one can translate 430's portion involving the word, , as "Soon he will perceive/feel a fire" (except that I must research more on to really make out that it clearly refers to fire because it could theoretically mean "what is the foundation".

M o F "Salat(eh)" proposition v. 2.0 part I
The "exemplary model"
Before we begin
I made posts a while ago (called v.1.x), but these can be considered scratched after I managed to understand more of the Arabic language and also the intricate meaning of w ( is a contraction of and ه and while my original understanding was in ways in the right direction it was not accurate. Those (if any) who had faith in what I wrote the last time do not have to worry because it is a matter of precision and not a rerouted direction of the understanding. Lesson was not too bad an interpretation, but it is not completely accurate either. The previous post as an answer to '1CELOSTNOWFOUND' was a first glance at this understanding, but in this post I am going to take a look into all instances of the derivative word which "salat(eh) consists of.
Before I begin I can show examples of why I consider the explanation in within parenthesis above to be correct. Let us look at Arabic text
(from 692)
Red Because the combination of words do not end with there is not made any contraction of and and hence it is spelled out as above. Many would argue that it is a suffix (grammatical function) called but that is only one aspect to look at it, and is also a suffix consisting of two grammatical functions.
(from 6192)
Red Also suffix usage. While above refers in plural with a reference point to context refers to , noteworthy "my" in the passage.
(from 999)
Red Also a grammatical reason why it has no assigned (forming ة and that is because the person is specified in the context, i.e. the rasul/messenger. The causes an adhesive emphasis on the word. It affirms the suggestion that here it means the perception of character that the rasuul/messenger has. It does not refer to prayer as I have already showed. Refer to the point that '1CELOSTNOWFOUND' gave in an earlier post, I quote my reply (it is from Lane's Lexicon)
- "The ass drove together his she-asses, and made them to take the way .", as in the example this an interesting example using a donkey. Simply replace the donkey with God or the image you like to follow instead and you know what "salawa" means (and thus salat(eh) as well which has the subject to thereon follow in the word structure itself).
Red In 999 it refers as suggested towards the 'rasuul/messenger'. And in other instances it reflects back towards the person reading the text and tell people to think of what kind of person they are and their perception.
Deep analysis
(much text to browse through)
Let us begin to go through every single instance of the word allegedly derived from and check what happens with the qualitative aspect of the narration when it is changed into fitting this perception of the word. I can tell you that something nearly magical happens but yet it is nothing magical at all but the truth revealed.
Before I start let me introduce the 'salat(eh)' word broken down into morphemes
= Perception = Definite = Be = Character = "Thereby"
I hope through this morpheme level display you will understand the following analysis.
I will utilize 'Monotheist Translation' with modifications; most noteworthy where the Salat(eh) word occurs, but also wherever certain erroneously interpreted words occur amen/iman, qum, kafar, dhekr, telaw and many other instances. At this time I have no full translation of Qur'an that has been done by me, so I will have to live with 'Monotheist Translation' for now because it is the most accurate translation I know of. I will mark changed words from Monotheist Translation in bold and I underline phrases that are important to pay attention in conjunction to my analysis (such as in 283 below "say kind things to the people". The interesting thing is that this confirms my stance that "behavior and deeds" are very important aspects of our faith, and it occurs many times through the Qur'an, actually exactly 98 times.
23 Those who are of one in the "unseen", and "have a character like that", and from Our provisions to them they spend.
243 And "mind of your character", and be a purified character, and be humble with those who humble.
245 And seek help through patience and character/behavior/"public display". It is a difficult thing, but not so for the meek.
283 And We took the covenant of the Children of Israel ?You shall not serve except God, and do good to your parents, and regard the relatives, and the orphans, and the needy, and say kind things to the people and mind your character, and be a purified character.? But then you turned away, except for a few of you; you were objecting.
2110 And mind your character, and be a purified character; and what you bring forth of good for your souls you will find it with God. God is watching what you do.Note Aqum assalateh literally means "Be express thereof - the perception definite be character thereby", indicating that one should be the kind of person that the scripture suggests (important emphasis on the 'meem' which has a contextual reference).
Atoo azzakateh together with the subject of this analysis may ironically enough refer to my constant reminding on the forum of Behavior and deed, where atoo azzakateh refers to one's actions where (kaaf) indicates a "manipulation/action" of sorts while (za)may indicate a form of the letter I already know it innate meaning of, i.e. (ra)= foundation, concrete or something solid. It may henceforth mean that it refers to behavior and deed with "aqum asalaateh wa atoo azzakaateh". In fact I find it such a breakthrough for me that I am going to go with this interpretation from hereon now.
2125 And We have made the Assembly to be a model for the people and how to be like. And you shall take, from the example of Abraham, a way to behave. And We entrusted to Abraham and Ishmael ?You shall purify My Assembly for those who visit, and those who are devoted, and the humbly respectful.
NoteI have objections against the translation above, but it is time-consuming to re-translate the whole passage at this time considered I am already in progress of making my own translation.2153 O you who are thereof one , seek help through patience and behavior, God is with the patient ones.
2157 For those there will be upon them behavior from their Lord and a mercy, they are the guided ones.
Note In 2157 the translator chooses to ignore in the translation.2177 Piety is not to turn your "minds" towards the east and the west , but pious is one who is like in God and the Realm, and the angels, and the Decree, and the prophets, and who gives money out of love to the relatives, and the orphans, and the needy, and the wayfarer, and those who ask, and to free the slaves; and who minds behavior and performs deeds; and those who keep their pledges when they make a pledge, and those who are patient in the face of adversity and hardship and when in despair. These are the ones who have been truthful, and these are the righteous.
2238 "Pay attention" on your behavior; and the best behavior; and show it to God dutifully.
2277 Those who are alike and do good works, and mind the behavior and perform deeds; they will have their recompense with their Lord and there is no fear over them nor will they grieve.
339 So the angels called to him and while he was showing of good behavior in the temple enclosure ?God gives you glad tidings of John, authenticating the word from God, and a master, and steadfast, and a prophet from the upright.?
Note It should be noted that translators often omit words in this text and add letters as well which are unfounded. Even a temple is invented.443 Please see the translation of 56 of what I think of this passage.
477 Did you not see those who were told ?Cease your aggression and mind the behavior and perform deeds.? But when fighting was decreed for them, a group of them were concerned towards the people as they would have been concerned towards God or even more so. And they said ?Our Lord, why did You decree fighting for us? If only You would delay for us until another time.? Say ?The enjoyment of this world is little, and the Hereafter is far better for those who are aware; you will not be wronged in the least.?
4101 And if you go forth in the land, then there is no harm that you sharpen your behavior, if you fear that the deluded will try you. The deluded are to you a clear enemy/problem.
4102 And if you are with them then mind you behavior towards them, then let a "challengers" from among them talk with you and let them bring their arguments and if they have are respectful then let them proceed and let the "challengers" group who has not behaved come and then behave with you, and let them be mindful and bring their arguments. The deluded hope that you would neglect your arguments and blessings so they can "get the best of you". There is no sin upon you if you are impeded by an overwhelming sensation and hence confused, that you place down your arguments. And be mindful, God has prepared for the deluded a humiliating retribution.Note The traditional "come upon you in one blow" indicates that it means like make you slip and say something that can be used against you (as a prophet). You see that there are several words that have been completely off in interpretation. Here is a list
- May mean something to attack with, but not necessarily a physical item. In this case it is the word fight of a prophet against people who want to try the prophet's capability. I would although say that it has nothing to do with attack at all, but the word implies what good one can come up with, like input.
- Rather implies that someone is unaware of right and wrong, like deluded by sects.
- Traditionally other, but I would argue that it refers to a particular "realm" and I choose group as translation above.
- Is supposed to refer to rain, but I would also interpret it as an overwhelming sensation.
- As a grammatical function (type of conjunction) I would say that it rather would equal to the English "and thus/hence". It is literally "Be hinting that it is adhesive to what has already been told. AM is the grammatical expression that means 'or'.
- Usually understood as 'sick', but I would rather say one has "foggy" perception, or easily said confused.
4103 Then if you have lost your behavior, "regard God while standing, or sitting, or on your sides". Then, if you are not a bad one, mind the behavior. Indeed, the behavior for the ones (thereof referring to God) is an important decree/commandment.
Green I take this as to reflect upon what has happened afterwards and see what you can do better next time.
4142 The hypocrites seek to deceive God, while He is deceiving them; and if they mind their behavior, they do so reluctantly only to show the people; they do not regard God except very little.
4162 But those of them who are well founded in knowledge, and the ones thereof, they are like what was sent down to you and what was sent down before you; and those who mind the behavior, and those who performs deeds, and those who are like in God and the Realm; to these We will give them their recompense greatly.
56 to those who are of one if mindful on the behavior without losing that spirit turned on you and be your attention on the weak and be of good spirit with your soul and be you humanly on the followers and be it should they stay away without right foundation and hence they be of dark foundation and thus on a spirit without foundation and thus shown/presented good ways from you from "gone right" and thus sought to be of the spiritual ones without possessing of be having intention ascend to become right without being a goodly person in turning to you and your hands from it of is intends God to make for you of how to be and to cause intend to (make) you right and to complete His/Her/Its blessings/gifts for you that you become appreciative ones56 remains an experimental translation, but it is yet much closer to the truth than the original lame translation. It was done because people who could not see every other instance which I translated but were obsessed with this passage and 4102.
512 God has taken the covenant of the Children of Israel and raised from them twelve representatives, and God said ?I am with you if you mind the behavior and perform deeds, and are alike My messengers, and support them, and lend God a loan of righteousness; then I will cancel your sins and admit you into estates with rivers flowing beneath them.? Whoever is deluded after this from you, then he has strayed from the path.
555 For your supporter are God and His messenger and those who are alike; they mind the behavior and perform deeds, and they are humble.
558 And if you call for behavior, they take it for mockery and play. That is because they are a people who do not comprehend.
591 The devil only wants to cause strife between you through alcohol and gambling, and to repel you away from regarding God and behavior. Will you be deterred?
5106 O you who are of me, witnessing shall be done if death is approaching one of you and a will is being made, by two among you who are equitable. If you have gone forth in the land, and death is approaching, then any two may suffice - if you have doubt regarding them, then detain them after behavior, and they will swear by God ?We will not purchase with it any price, even if it was from a near relative, and we will not conceal the testimony of God, else we are of the sinners.?
672 And you shall mind the behavior, and be aware; and to Him you will be gathered.
692 And this is a Decree which We have sent down, blessed, truthful to what is between his hands, and that you may warn the capital of the towns and those around it. And those who are of in the Realm are like it, and they care about the behavior.
6162 Say ?My behavior, and my works, and my life, and my death, are all for God, Lord of the worlds.?
7170 As for those who hold fast to the Decree, and mind their behavior; We will not waste the reward of the righteous.
83 They mind the behavior, and from Our provisions to them they spend.
835 And their behavior at the Assembly was nothing but noise and aversion. Taste the retribution for what you have deluded about.
95 So when the restricted months have passed, then you may kill the polytheists wherever you find them, and take them, and surround them, and stand against them at every point. If they repent, and they mind the behavior and perform deeds, then you shall leave them alone. God is Forgiving, Merciful.
Note I do not stand by the translation above, but I lack down to sit down and research about it right now. But obviously you only "fight" if they are misbehaving and oppress you.911 If they repent, and mind their behavior and perform deeds, then they are your brothers in the system. We explain the revelations for a people who know.
918 Rather, the assemblies of God are maintained by he who be thereof in God and the Realm, and minds his behavior, and performs his deeds, and is only concerned by God. It is these that will be of the guided ones.
954 And what prevented what they would spend from being accepted from them except that they are deluded about God and His messenger, and they do not care about their behavior except reluctantly, and they do not spend except unwillingly.
971 And the males thereof and the females thereof, they are allies to one another. They order good and prohibit vice, and mind their behavior, and perform their deeds and they obey God and His messenger. God will have mercy on them; God is Noble, Wise.
984 And do not "become emotional/make a display" for any of them who have died, nor stand at their grave. They have been deluded about God and His messenger and died while they were wicked.
999 And from the "Nomads" are those who are thereof in God and the Realm, and he looks upon what he spends to make him closer to God and the behavior of the messenger. It indeed makes them closer. God will admit them in His mercy; God is Forgiving, Merciful.
9103 Take from their money a charity to purify them and develop them with it, and keep your behavior with them; for your behavior is a tranquility for them; and God is Hearer, Knowledgeable.
1087 And We inspired to Moses and his brother ?You shall seek out assemblies for your people in Egypt; and leave your assemblies to be a "role model" and mind the behavior. And give good news to the ones.?
To be continued, God willing.
Spiritual harmony be upon you,
Be of one with God
