    Instead of so while walking or riding should be one by one or by two connected.

    Instead of If you become secure should be So, when you confirm (by action).

    Previous ayet is wrongly translated also.

    Selam to ones who think about His ayets with no shirk.

    Amen means to be confident or secure. It does not vary much from that connotation.

    Be well

      Wait, did I get it right? Are you purposely chaging the words in Arabic to fit the correct translation?

      You are changing the Quran. giveup

      Me? Which words?

      MoF, it's not fear as you (and author of this translation) probably think it is. Check 4101, maybe you'll see...

        I didn't really get what you mean. Just asking if the moderators are changing the Arabic within the Quran? Thus changing the Quran? I don't know Araboc, can read it though. Maybe there is something I dn't understand. hmm

          Farati,

          People are not confident Quran is preserved in its interpretation and therefore they seek to study the language. Personally I would wonder thus if the book ever had a proper interpretation to begin with.

            You seem to be confused about the meaning of the word "moderator".

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

              The word "jebel" is not "mountain" here. I'm not sure about English word, but it should be something as maybe "pile".
              Anyways, Ibrahim a.s., Allah's friend, took all parts of birds and took them together and made something which looks like a hill, but much smaller of course. Please somebody inform me if "pile" is a good word for this and thanks in advance.

              Selam to rare ones who love Allah's friend, Ibrahim a.s. and his Rabb.

                Salam,

                a missing dot in the end of the verse.

                1135 Or do they say ?He has invented it?? Say ?If I have invented it,
                then I am responsible for my crime, and I am innocent from your
                crimes?

                  I don't know why my posts in this topic are ignored, but I'll try once more with a question, maybe it can help...

                  In 43 = "to be just"
                  In 499 = "be equitable!"
                  In 608 = "the equitable"

                  But then, as active participle

                  In 7214-15 = "the compromisers"

                  My question is How can any word be its opposite?

                    The magic of sectarian Arabic.

                        Make you capital in bold

                        326 Say ?Our god, Possessor of kingship; you grant kingship to
                        whom You please, and revoke kingship from whom You please,

                          I might be wrong but I think the author(s) (Layth?) is/are more interested in technical corrections (missing dots, capitals, misspelling, etc) then in your or my understanding of a particular word.

                            Should hearer be capital or as it is, in bold?

                            338 It was then that Zachariah implored his Lord; he said ?My Lord,
                            grant me from You a good progeny. You are the hearer of prayer.?

                              My apologies for the absence.

                              I have uploaded the file with the fixes http//free-minds.org/sites/default/files/quran.pdf

                              With regards to the comment of Aladin

                              Qasitoon is NOT the same as Muqsiteen (it is the opposite).

                              Muqsit is someone who gives equitably, Qasit is someone who takes for himself (one is good, the other is bad).

                              You can see this in 7215 where God tells us that "the Qasitoon" will be the firewood of Hell.

                              To maintain consistency, I have used "inequitable" for Qasitoon to make it clear as the opposite of Muqsitoon.

                              Regards,

                                  Nothing missing. I can amend to "in this one" if it makes the verse clearer?

                                      I read this verse and want to see if it can be written another way, although it's understandable this way.

                                      378 And from among them is a group who twist their tongues with
                                      the Book so that you may think it is from the Book, while it is not
                                      from the Book, and they say it is from God while it is not from
                                      God, and they say about God lies while they know.

                                      To

                                      378 And from among them is a group who twist the Book with their tongues so that you may think it is from the Book, while it is not

                                        Salam,

                                        I don't think it can be amended as the sequence in Arabic speaks of the tongues being twisted with the book.

                                        Perhaps "And from among them is a group who twist their tongues using the Book so that you may..."?

                                          Yes, that's a better translation
