    925 God has granted you victory in many battles. And on the day of
    Hunayn when you were pleased with your great numbers but it did not
    help you at all, and the land became tight around you for what it held,
    then you turned to flee.
    IS THE WORD USED IN ARABIC "BATTLES" OR "BATTLEFIELDS" ??

    926 Then God sent down tranquility upon His messenger and the
    believers, and He sent down soldiers which you did not see, and He
    punished those who disbelieved. Such is the recompense of the rejecters.

    940 If you do not help him, then God has helped him. When those
    who rejected expelled him, he was one of only two, and when they were
    in the cave, he said to his friend ?Do not grieve, for God is with us.? So
    God sent down calmness over him ...

    IS THE ARABIC WORD THAT HAS BEEN TRANSLATED INTO TRANQUILITY IN 926 AND INTO
    CALMNESS IN 940 THE SAME ??? IF YES WHY HAS IT NOT BEEN RENDERED INTO THE SAME
    WORD IN ENGLISH ??

    959 And if they had only been content with what God and His
    messenger had given them, and they had said ?God suffices; God will give
    us from His bounty, and His messenger; it is to God that we desire.?
    IT IS TO GOD THAT WE DESIRE. IS THIS SENTENCE WELL PHRASED IN ENGLISH ? I TRULY WONDER.
    can you desire TO someone ??

    436 And serve God and do not set up anything with Him, and be
    kind to the parents, and the relatives, and the needy, and the neighbor
    who is of kin, and the neighbor next door, and the friend far away, and
    the traveler, and those committed to you by oath. God does not like the
    arrogant, the boastful.

    960 The charities are to go to the poor, and the needy, and those who
    work to collect them, and those whose hearts have been united, and to free
    the slaves, and those in debt, and in the cause of God, and the wayfarer. A
    duty from God, and God is Knowledgeable, Wise.

    IN THE ABOVE VERSES THERE ARE ARABIC WORD(S) THAT HAVE BEEN TRANSLATED INTO
    TRAVELER IN 436 AND WAYFARER IN 960.
    THE VERSES TO ME ARE A BIT CLOSE. SHOULD THE TRANSLATION BE THE SAME ??
    IF NO LET ME KNOW.

    983 IfGod returns you to a group of them, and they ask your permission
    to come with you, then say ?You will not come with me ever; nor will...
    SPACE CHARACTER MISSING BETWEEN "IF" AND "GOD" AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VERSE.

    9123 O you who believe, fight those who around you of the rejecters, and
    let them find strength in you; and know that God is with the righteous.
    IS THE PHRASING OF THIS SENTENCE OK ? "FIGHT THOSE WHO AROUND YOU OF THE REJECTERS"
    IS THERE NOT A "ARE" MISSING AFTER "WHO" ??

      1156 ?I have put my trust in God, my Lord and your Lord. There is
      not a creature except He will seize it by frontal lobe. My Lord is on a
      Straight Path.?
      IS THERE NO "ITS/HIS/THE" MISSING BEFORE FRONTAL LOBE ?

      1199 And they were followed by a curse in this, and on the Day of
      Resurrection. What a miserable path to follow!
      MAY BE THERE IS "WORLD" MISSING AFTER "THIS" OR SOME OTHER WORD ???
      INDEED IT IS BY DOING A COMPARISON WITH THE FOLLOWING VERSE THAT
      I MADE THAT SUGGESTION
      1160 And they were followed by a curse in this world and on the Day of
      Judgment, for ?Aad rejected their Lord. There is no more ?Aad, the people
      of Hud.

      11103 In this is a sign for he who fears the retribution of the Hereafter.
      That is a Day to which all the people will be gathered, and that is a Day
      which will witnessed.
      IS THERE A "BE" MISSING BEFORE "WITNESSED" ? PLEASE CHECK THE ARABIC VERSION.
      OR MAY BE "WILL" IS THE SUBJECT AND "WITNESSED" THE VERB ??

        390 Those who have rejected after their belief then increased in
        rejection, their repentance will not be accepted, they are the strayers.
        IS A COMMA MISSING AFTER "THEIR BELIEF" ?

        3109 And to God is all that is in heavens and in the Earth; and to God
        the events will be returned.
        IS A "THE" MISSING BEFORE "HEAVENS" ?

          4102 And if you are with them and you hold the communion for
          them, then let a group from amongst them stand with you and let them
          bring.....
          WHY IS "HOLD" USED INSTEAD OF "UPHOLD" THE COMMUNION WHEN IT WAS
          "UPHOLD BEFORE" OR IS IT A TYPO ? OR MAY BE THE WORDS IN ARABIC REALLY DIFFER
          same for 56 1087 11114 1778 2014 2945 3117 3333

            1760 And when We said to you Your Lord has encompassed the
            people. And We did not make the vision that We showed you except as
            a test for the people, and tree that was cursed in the Quran. And We are
            making them fearful, but it only increases their transgression.
            IS THERE NOT A "THE" MISSING BEFORE "TREE" ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC FIRST.

            1783 And if We bless mankind, he turns away and turns his side. But
            when adversity touches him, he is ever in despair!
            MANKIND ?? IS "HUMANING BEING" WHAT IS MEANT ?

            1790 And they said We will not believe to you until you cause a spring
            of water to burst from the land
            DOES THE "TO" BEFORE THE "YOU" HAVE ITS PLACE THERE ??
            IS IT GOOD ENGLISH TO SAY "BELIEVE TO SOMEONE" ? MAY BE "BELIEVE IN SOMEONE"
            OR MAY BE "UNTO" WAS INTENDED ?? WHAT IS THE BEST TRANSLATION HERE ?

            1811 So We put forth upon their ears for many years in the cave.
            IS THERE NOT WORD MISSING HERE ? "SO WE PUT FORTH UPON THEIR EARS"
            I DO NOT REALLY UNDERSTAND THIS SENTENCE.

            1839 And if you enter your garden, you should have said This is
            what God has given, there is no power except by God. You see me as
            being less than you in wealth and in children?
            THE PHRASING FROM THE BEGINNING TO "SAID". ARE THE TENSES RIGHT ???

              2015 ?The Hour is coming, I am nearly keeping it hidden, so that every
              soul will be recompensed with what is strived.?
              THE WORD BEFORE "STRIVED" SHOULD IT BE "IS" OR "IT" ? ANALYSIS ANYONE ?

              20117 So We said ?O Adam, this is an enemy to you and your mate.
              So do not let him take you out from the paradise, else you will have
              hardship.?
              CAPITAL LETTER FROM "PARADISE

              2156 He said ?No, your lord is the Lord of heavens and Earth, the One
              who initiated them. And I bear witness to such.?
              HEAVENS IS MISSING ITS CAPITAL "H"

                2568 And those who do not call on any other god with God, nor do they
                kill the life that God has made forbidden except in justice, nor do they
                commit adultery; and whosoever does that will receive the punishment.
                PLEASE CAN ANYONE RE-CHECK THE TRANSLATION OF THE LAST PART OF THE VERSE.
                IT HAS SHOCKED ME I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE A "NOT" BEFORE "RECEIVE"

                2572 And those who do not bear false witness, and if they pass by vein
                talk they pass by with dignity.
                "VEIN" OR "VAIN" TALK ?

                2574 And those who say ?Our Lord, grant us from our mates and our
                progeny what will be the comfort of our eyes, and make us role models
                the righteous.?
                IS THERE NOT A "FOR" MISSING BEFORE "THE RIGHTEOUS" ?

                2649 He said ?Have you believed to him before I permitted you? He
                is surely your
                "BELIEVE IN" OR "BELIEVE TO"

                2670 When he said to his father and his people ?What do you
                worship??
                THE WORD TRANSLATED AS WORSHIP, IS IT THE SAME AS THE ONE TRANSLATED AS SERVE IN
                THE FIRST CHAPTER ?

                  2850 But if they fail to respond to you, then know that they follow only
                  their desires. And who is more astray than one who follows his desire,
                  without guidance from God? God does not guide the wicked people.
                  PLEASE CHECK THE ARABIC VERSION TO SEE IF THE SECOND "DESIRE" IS NOT MEANT TO BE PLURAL

                  2855 And if they come across vain talk, they disregard it and say ?To
                  us are our deeds, and to you is your deeds. Peace be upon you. We do not
                  seek the ignorant.?
                  PLEASE CHECK IF IT IS NOT MEANT TO BE "TO YOU ARE YOUR DEEDS" INSTEAD OF
                  "TO YOU IS YOUR DEEDS"

                  2917 ?You are worshipping nothing but idols besides Him, and you are
                  creating fabrications. Those that you worship besides God do not possess
                  for you any provisions, so seek with God the provision and serve Him and
                  be thankful to Him; to Him you will return.?
                  PLEASE CHECK IN THE ARABIC VERSION WHETHER THE SECOND "PROVISION" SHOULD BE PLURAL

                  3331 Any whosoever of you is dutiful to God and His messenger, and
                  does good works, We will grant her double the recompense, and We have
                  prepared for her a generous provision.
                  "ANY WHOSOEVER" IS THAT GOOD ENGLISH ?

                  3356 God and His angels commune over prophet. O you who believe,
                  you shall commune over him, and comply completely.
                  IS THERE NOT A "THE" MISSING BEFORE PROPHET ?

                  349 Have they not seen to all that is before them and behind them,
                  in the heaven and the Earth?
                  IS "SEEN TO " GOOD ENGLISH ?
                  DO WE SAY "SEE TO SOMETHING" OR "SEE SOMETHING" ?

                  3416 But they turned away, so We sent them a destructive flash flood,
                  and We substituted their two gardens into two gardens of rotten fruits,
                  thorny plants, and a skimpy harvest.
                  CAN WE SAY "SUBSTITUTE INTO " ? I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT "SUBSTITUTE WITH/BY"

                  3432 Those who were mighty will say to those who were weak ?Did
                  we turn you away from the guidance after it had come to you? No, it was
                  you who were criminal.?
                  MAY BE AN "S" AT THE END OF CRIMINAL ?

                    4037 ?The secrets of the heavens, and that I can take a look at the god
                    of Moses, although I think he is a liar.?
                    HAS IT BEEN TRANSLATED THE SAME EVERYWHERE ELSE

                    4049 And those who are in Fire will say to the guardians of Hell ?Call
                    upon your Lord to reduce for us the retribution, by just one day!?
                    "THE" MISSING BEFORE "FIRE" ??

                    4065 He is the Living; there is no god except He. So call on Him while
                    devoting the system for Him. Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.
                    "DEVOTING THE SYSTEM FOR HIM" OR "DEVOTING THE SYSTEM TO HIM" ?
                    PLEASE CHECK ARABIC VERSION

                    419 Say ?You are rejecting the One who created the Earth in two
                    days, and you set up equals with Him. This is Lord of the worlds.?
                    "THE" MISSING BEFORE "LORD" ??

                    4517 And We gave them clarity in the matter, but then they disputed
                    after the knowledge had come to them, out ofjealousy amongst themselves.
                    SPACE CHARACTER MISSING BETWEEN "OF" AND "JEALOUSY"

                    4625 It destroys everything by the commanded of its Lord. Thus they
                    became such that nothing could be seen except their homes. We thus
                    requite the criminal people.
                    "COMMAND" OR "COMMANDED" ? CAN ANYONE PLEASE CHECK ARABIC VERSION ?

                    4629 And We directed to you a company of Jinn, in order to let them
                    listen to theQur?an. So when...
                    SPACE CHARACTER MISSING BETWEEN "THE" AND "QUR'AN"

                    4629 And We directed to you a company of Jinn, in order to let them
                    listen to the Qur?an. So when they arrived there, they said ?Pay attention.?
                    Then, when it was finished, they returned to their people, to warn them.
                    IS "PAY ATTENTION" THE EXPRESSION TRANSLATED IN OTHER PLACES AS "TAKE HEED" ?

                    4724 Do they not reflect on the Qur?an? Or are there locks on their hearts?
                    SPACE CHARACTER MISSING BETWEEN "THE" AND "QUR'AN"

                    4737 IfHe were to ask you for it, to the extent of creating a hardship for
                    you, you would become stingy, and your hidden evil might be exposed.
                    SPACE CHARACTER MISSING BETWEEN "IF" AND "HE"

                      755 No, man desires that he continue committing sins.
                      "S" MISSING AT THE END OF "CONTINUE" ? IS IT GOOD ENGLISH

                      8316 Then they will be entered into the Hell.
                      THERE IS "THE" BEFORE HELL. IT IS NOT OFTEN THAT IT HAPPENS , NO ?
                      WHY A "THE" THIS TIME ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC.

                      8325 They are given drink from a pure sealed vial.
                      MAY BE THERE IS A MISSING "TO" BEFORE "DRINK" OR MAY BE SOME OTHER WORD ??

                      842 And it permits its Lord, and is ready.
                      THE SKY PERMITS ITS LORD ? DOES THAT MEAN THE SKY HAS POWER OVER LORD ( WHICH I
                      DO NOT BELIEVE) ?? ARE YOU SURE THIS IS THE RIGHT TRANSLATION ?

                      1025 No, if only you had the knowledge of certainty.
                      1026 You would then see Hell.
                      1027 Then you will see it with the eye of certainty.
                      1028 Then you will be questioned, on that Day, about the blessings.
                      LOOK AT THE TENSE OF 1027. COULD ANY ONE CHECK THE ARABIC ORIGINAL TO SEE WHETHER
                      IT WOULD BE BEST TO HAVE "YOU WOULD SEE IT" INSTEAD OF "YOU WILL SEE IT" ??

                        618 They wish to put out God?s light with their mouths. But God will
                        continue with His light, even if the rejecters dislike it.
                        THERE ARE VERSES QUITE SIMILAR TO THIS ONE.
                        ARE THEY USING THE SAME WORDS IN ARABIC OR ARE THERE DIFFERENCES ?
                        ESPECIALLY "DISLIKE" IS "HATE" IN ANOTHER VERSE 932
                        ESPECIALLY "PUT OUT" IS "EXTINGUISH" IN VERSE 932

                        6110 ?O you who believe, shall I lead you to a trade that will save you
                        from painful retribution??
                        IS THERE NO "A" MISSING BEFORE "PAINFUL" ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC

                        637 They are the ones who say ?Do not spend on those who are with
                        the messenger of God, unless they abandon him!? And to God belongs
                        the treasures of the heavens and the Earth, but the hypocrites do not
                        comprehend.
                        SHOULD BELONG HAS AN "S" AS IT IS "THE TREASURES OF ... THE EARTH" THAT BELONG ?

                        6311 And God will not delay any soul if its time has come. And God is
                        Expert to all that you do.
                        SOMETIMES "IN" FOLLOWS EXPERT , SOMETIMES "OVER",
                        COULD YOU PLEASE IN THE ARABIC THAT THE WORDS ARE DIFFERENT AS WE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT
                        TRANSLATIONS ?

                        642 He is the One who created you, then among you there is the
                        rejecter, and among you is the believer. And God is Seer over what you
                        do.
                        IS THERE A "THERE" MISSING IN "AND AMONG YOU IS THE BELIEVER" ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC

                        673 He created seven skies in layers. You do not see any imperfection
                        in the creation by the Almighty. Keep looking; do you see any flaw?
                        7115 ?Did you not see how God created seven skies in layers??
                        IS SKY THE SAME AS HEAVEN ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC VERSION
                        TO SEE THE ORIGINAL WORDS. IF YES ( SKY = HEAVEN ), THEN WHY IS IT ANOTHER WORD DIFFERENT FROM HEAVEN
                        THAT IS USED HERE ? ALSO THERE MAY BE OTHER VERSES WHERE SKY IS USED FOR HEAVEN.

                        7121 Noah said ?My Lord, they have disobeyed me and have followed
                        whose money and children only increased him in loss.?
                        IS THERE NO WORD MISSING AFTER "FOLLOWED" ?

                        7128 ?My Lord, forgive me, and my parents, and whoever enters my
                        home as a believer, and to the believing men and believing women; and
                        do not increase the wicked except in destruction.?
                        IS THE "TO" BEFORE "THE BELIEVING MEN" IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE.
                        IS IT GOOD ENGLISH ?

                          560 Say ?Shall I inform you of worse than this as a punishment from
                          God? Those whom God cursed and became angry at them, and He made
                          from them apes and pigs and servants of evil. Those have a worst place
                          and are more astray from the right path.?

                          SHOULD IT NOT BE " A WORSE PLACE" INSTEAD OF "A WORST PLACE" ?

                          5111 ?And I inspired the disciples that you shall believe in Me and
                          My messenger; they said ?We believe, and bear witness that we have
                          submitted.??

                          do we have missing quotes before YOU and after MESSENGER ?

                          572 Rejecters indeed are those who have said ?God is the Messiah
                          son of Mary!? And the Messiah said ?O Children of Israel, serve God, my
                          Lord and your Lord. Whoever sets-up partners with God, then God will
                          forbid Paradise for him, and his destiny will be the Fire; and the wicked
                          will have no supporters.?
                          IS A FULL STOP OR SEMI COLON REQUIRED AFTER or is there nothing in the Arabic version

                            134 And on Earth are neighboring pieces of land with gardens of
                            grape and plants and palm trees, some of which may be twin sharing the
                            same root, or single, even though they are being watered with the same
                            water source; and We make preference for some of them over others in
                            what they consume. In that are signs for a people who comprehend.
                            SHOULD THERE BE AN "S" AT THE END "GRAPE" ?

                            WHAT IS THE ARABIC WORD TRANSLATED INTO PATIENT/PATIENCE ?

                            1335 The example of Paradise that the righteous have been promised,
                            is that rivers flow beneath it, and its provisions are continuous as is its
                            shade. Such is the abode of those who were righteous, while the abode of
                            the rejecters is the Fire.
                            WHAT IS THE ARABIC WORD THAT IS TRANSLATED INTO "EXAMPLE"
                            SOME HAVE TRANSLATED IT INTO "ALLEGORY". IS IT A BETTER TRANSLATION THAN "EXAMPLE" ?
                            OR IS "EXAMPLE" THE BETTER TRANSLATION ??

                            1412 ?And why should we not place our trust in God, when He has
                            guided us our path. And we will be patient to the harm you inflict upon
                            us. And in God those who trust should put their trust.?
                            IS THERE NOT A WORD MISSING AFTER "US" AND BEFORE "OUR PATH" ?
                            SOME PEOPLE HAVE TRANSLATED PATH IN A PLURAL FORM. IS IT REALLY
                            "PATHS" IN THE ARABIC ORIGINAL ?

                            1593 Regarding what they use to do.
                            IS THERE NOT A "D" MISSING AT THE END OF "USE" ?

                            16101 And if We exchange a verse in place of another verse; and God is
                            more aware of what He is revealing; they say ?You are making this up!?
                            Alas, most of them do not know.
                            COULD THE WORD THAT HAS BECOME "VERSE" MEAN "SIGN" ???

                              484 He is the One who sends down tranquility into the hearts of the
                              believers, so that they may increase in faith along with their present faith.
                              And to God belongs the soldiers of the heavens and the Earth, and God is
                              Knowledgeable, Wise.
                              SHOULD THERE BE AN "S" AT THE END OF "BELONG" ?
                              WHO IS/ARE BELONGING ? GOD OR THE SOLDIERS ?

                              487 And to God belongs the soldiers of the heavens and the Earth.
                              And God is Noble, Wise.
                              SHOULD THERE BE AN "S" AT THE END OF "BELONG" ?
                              WHO IS/ARE BELONGING ? GOD OR THE SOLDIERS ?

                              4810 Those who pledge allegiance to you, are in-fact pledging allegiance
                              to God; God?s hand is above their hands. Those of them who violate such
                              a pledge, are violating it only upon themselves. And whosoever fulfills
                              what he has pledged to God, then He will grant him a great reward.
                              4811 The Nomads who lagged behind will say to you ?We were preoccupied
                              with our money and our family, so ask forgiveness for us.? They say with their
                              tongues what is not in their hearts. Say ?Who then would possess any power
                              for you against God if He wanted harm to afflict you or if He wanted benefit
                              for you?? No, God is fully Aware of everything you do.
                              FONT FACE AND SIZE HAVE BEEN CHANGED FOR THESE VERSES. WHY ? SHOULD WE NOT KEEP
                              A UNIFORMIZED FONT FACE AND SIZE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE TEXT ?

                              4816 Say to those Nomads who lagged behind ?You will be called on
                              to fight a people who are very powerful in warfare, unless they surrender.
                              Then if you obey, God will grantyou a good reward, but if you turn away as
                              you turned away before, He will punish you with a painful retribution.?
                              "GRANTYOU" IS NOT ONE WORD, MISSING SPACE CHARACTER

                              Your Lord is with vast forgiveness. He has been fully aware of you since
                              He initiated you from the Earth, and while you were embryos in your
                              mothers wombs...
                              IS THERE NOT AN APOSTROPHE MISSING AFTER THE "S" OF "MOTHERS" ?

                              5336 Or was he not informed of the teachings in the Scriptures of Moses?
                              IS "SCRIPTURES" MEANT TO BE PLURAL ? IS IT PLURAL IN THE ARABIC VERSION ?

                              5337 And of Abraham who fulfilled?

                              5443 Are your rejecters better than those? Or have you been absolved
                              by the scriptures?
                              IS "SCRIPYURES" PLURAL IN THE ARABIC VERSION ?

                              5452 And everything they had done, is in the scriptures.
                              IS "SCRIPTURES" PLURAL IN THE ARABIC VERSION ?

                                3356 God and His angels commune over prophet. O you who believe,
                                you shall commune over him, and comply completely.
                                IS THERE A MISSING "THE" BEFORE PROPHET ?

                                3446 Say ?I advise you to do one thing that you stand to God, in pairs
                                and as individuals, then reflect. There is no madness in your friend, he is
                                only a warner to you in the face of a severe retribution.?
                                IS IT AN "AND" OR AN "OR" before "as individuals"
                                can you please check in arabic ?

                                3510 Whosoever is seeking pride, then know that to God belongs all
                                Pride. To Him ascend the good words, and He elevates the good deed.
                                And as for those who scheme evil, they will have a painful retribution,
                                and their scheming will fail.
                                is the word translated as "PRIDE" pride or dignity ?
                                could any one check in Arabic ?

                                  16120 Abraham was a nation, dutiful to God, a monotheist, and he was
                                  not of those who set up partners.
                                  ABRAHAM WAS A NATION ? PLEASE CHECK ARABIC TO SEE IF THE TRANSLATION IS CORRECT

                                  3220 And as for those who were wicked, their abode is the Fire. Every
                                  time they try to leave it, they will be put back in it, and it will be said to
                                  them ?Taste the retribution of the Fire in which you used to deny.?
                                  IN which you used to DENY ? is that english ? or is there in the arabic version
                                  some specific word that leads you to add IN

                                  3333 You shall settle down in your homes, and do not go about like
                                  in the olden days of ignorance. You shall hold the communion, and
                                  contribute towards betterment, and obey God and His messenger. God
                                  wishes to remove any affliction from you, O people of the Dwelling, and
                                  to purify you completely.
                                  WHAT DOES OLDEN MEAN ? OR IS IT A MISTAKE ?

                                  419 Say ?You are rejecting the One who created the Earth in two
                                  days, and you set up equals with Him. This is Lord of the worlds."
                                  IS THERE NO "THE" MISSING BEFORE "LORD" ?

                                  2284 To God is what is in the heavens and in Earth, and if you declare
                                  what is in your souls or hide it, God will call you to account for it. He
                                  will forgive whom He wishes, and punish whom He wishes, and God is
                                  capable of all things.

                                  WOULD A "WHETHER" NOT BE PREFERABLE TO THE "IF" ???

                                  1026 To those who do good work will be good and more, and their faces
                                  will not be darkened or humiliated. These are the people of Paradise, in it
                                  they will abide.

                                  3106 The Day on which faces will be whitened and faces will be
                                  blackened; as for those whose faces will be blackened ?Did you reject
                                  after believing? Taste the retribution for what you rejected.?
                                  3960 And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied about
                                  God their faces will be blackened. Is there not an abode in Hell for the
                                  arrogant ones?

                                  COMPARE 1026 WITH 3106 AND 3960. "DARKENED" IS USED IN THE FIRST AND
                                  "BLACKENED" IN THE FOLLOWING TWO. IS THE WORD IN ARABIC THE SAME OR IS IT
                                  DIFFERENT ?

                                    Good point; but I would say it will deepen the division between us and the other Moslems. If you leave it that way, it will not effect the Message.

                                    The thing is I am not and I think we should not try to comply with what has happened so far.
                                    our aim should be truth. and truth is not democratic. the number of people supporting an idea
                                    will not make a falsehood , truth.
                                    moreover, Quantity is not necessarily Quality.
                                    All I have in mind is accuracy.

                                    Peace

                                      197 ?O Zachariah, We give you glad tidings of a son whose name is
                                      John. We have not given that name before to anyone.?
                                      WHAT DOES JOHN MEAN ?
                                      SHOULD WE NOT HAVE A LIST OF ALL THE NAMES IN THE QURAN WITH THEIR DEFINITION
                                      IN SOME APPENDIX. I THINK IT COULD HELP A LOT IN STUDYING THE QURAN.

                                      ALSO AS WE KNOW FOR EXAMPLE THAT JOHN IS IN FACT YOCHANAN
                                      and Moses is MOSHE
                                      WHY DO WE NOT PUT THE HEBREW NAMES INSTEAD OF THOSE ANGLICIZED ONES ?
                                      WOULD THAT BE ALTERING THE WORD OF GOD OR WOULD IT BE A NICE ENDEAVOUR ?

                                      20101 They will remain therein, and miserable on the Day of Resurrection
                                      is what they carry.
                                      IN THE PDF FILES, THERE ARE SPACE CHARACTERS MISSING between words

                                      20113 and 122
                                      MAY BE THERE IS AN "AS" MISSING IN 122
                                      THE VERSES ARE QUITE CLOSE.

                                        system of truth, to make it expose all other systems, even if those who set
                                        up partners hate it.
                                        THERE ARE SIMILARITIES IN THE 2 VERSES.
                                        IN THE ARABIC VERSION ARE THE TWO EXPRESSIONS TRANSLATED
                                        AS "so that it would expose all other systems" AND
                                        "to make it expose all other systems" DIFFERENT OR THE SAME ?

                                        5514 He created the human from a clay, like pottery.
                                        IS THE "A" BEFORE "CLAY" IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE ? SHOULD IT BE THERE AT ALL ?
                                        WE HAVE BEEN SAYING "FROM CLAY" SINCE THE BEGINNING.
                                        PLEASE CHECK ARABIC VERSION.

                                        5718 Surely, the charitable men and charitable women, who have
                                        loaned God a loan of goodness, He will multiply their reward, and they
                                        will have a generous recompense.
                                        THERE ARE VERSES WHERE IT IS "LOAN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS".
                                        ARE THE EXPRESSIONS TRANSLATED AS "LOAN OF GOODNESS"
                                        AND "LOAN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS" THE SAME IN ARABIC ?

                                        5822 You will not find any people who believe in God and the Last

                                        if they were their parents, or their children, or their siblings, or their
                                        tribe. For these, He decrees faith into their hearts, and supports them
                                        withSpirit from Him, and He admits them into paradises...
                                        MISSING SPACE CHARACTER BETWEEN "WITH" AND "SPIRIT" AND
                                        IT SEEMS THAT WE SHOULD WORK ON THAT PART OF THE VERSE.
                                        IS IT "A SPIRIT" "THE SPIRIT" , PLEASE CHECK ARABIC.

                                          contribute towards betterment, and obey God and His messenger. God
                                          wishes to remove any affliction from you, O people of the Dwelling, and
                                          to purify you completely.

                                          9125 As for those who have a disease in their hearts, it only increased
                                          foulness to their foulness, and they died as rejecters.

                                          sky because they were wicked.

                                          THE WORD TRANSLATED AS FOULNESS IN 9125, IS IT THE SAME AS THE ONE TRANSLATED AS AFFLICTION
                                          IN 3333 and 7162
