    I don't know why my posts in this topic are ignored

    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.

      Salam,

      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.?

      Salam

        Salam,

        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,

          Can you check following verse, it might be missing "earth" or "world", between bold

          1199 And they were followed by a curse in this, and on the Day of
          Resurrection. What a miserable path to follow!

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

                Salam,

                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
                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.

                Is it possible?

                  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

                      Can you check the following verses, specifically in bold, if there are any errors with "Our" and "my"

                      1440 ?My Lord, let me hold the Communion, and also from my
                      progeny. Our Lord, and accept my prayer.?

                      1441 ?Our Lord, forgive me and my parents, and the believers on the
                      Day the reckoning is called.?

                            This verse might miss an "a", between bold

                            5914 They will not fight you all together unless they are in fortified
                            towns, or from behind walls. Their might appears formidable
                            among themselves. You would think that they are united, but
                            their hearts are divided. This is because they are people who do
                            not comprehend.

                                Say ?If the earth had angels walking about in security, We would

                                        Those who remember God while standing, and sitting, and on
                                        their sides, and they ponder over the creation of the heavens and
                                        the earth ?Our Lord you have not created this without purpose,
                                        glory to You, spare us the retribution of the Fire!?

                                          Salam,

                                          in this verse, can you check if the arrangement of the second sentence is correct?

                                          42 And give the orphans their money. And do not replace the nasty
                                          with the good, and do not consume their money with your money;
                                          for truly this is a great sin!

                                          I think it should be "do not replace the good with the nasty".

                                          Salam
