What you think about leaving "the names of things" in their original form, but written in nominative with transcription?

Salam,
Verse below is missing a "the" before earth.
2284 To God is what is in the heavens and in earth, and whether 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.

Salam,
The word in bold needs capital start.
2285 The messenger believes in what was sent down to him from his Lord; and the believers, all who believe in God, and His angels, and His Books, and His messengers ?We do not make a distinction between any of His messengers;? and they said ?We hear and obey, forgive us our Lord, and to you is our destiny.?

1.Criterion, is it to be written with capital c or small c?
In verse 253 its written with small c, while in 34 with capital c. I made a search throughout Quran (Ctrl+F), there's a mix of capital and small letter for criterion.
- Belong should be changed to belongs.
2115 And to God belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn, there is the face of God. God is Encompassing, Knowledgeable.
- In verse 2149 and 2150 it is written yourself and yourselves. I'm not sure myself which is correct, but I think it's yourselves. But would be good to look into it;
2149 And from wherever you go out, you shall set yourself towards the
restricted temple; it is the truth from your Lord; and God is not
unaware of what you do.2150 And wherever you go out, you shall set yourself towards the
restricted temple. And wherever you may be you shall set
yourselves towards it; that the people will have no room for
debate with you, except those of them who are wicked. You shall
not be concerned by them, but be concerned by Me; so that I may
complete My blessings upon you and that you may be guided.4.Make capital h small;
2159 Surely those who conceal what We have sent down to them of
the clarities and the guidance, after We Had made it clear for the
people in the Book; these will be cursed by God and be cursed by
those who curse.5.Not sure if this is incorrect. "Who" change with "so"?
2187
It has been made permissible for you during the night of fasting
to approach your women sexually. They are a garment for you and
you are a garment for them. God knows that you used to betray
your souls so He has accepted your repentance, and forgiven you;
now you may approach them and seek what God has written for
you. And you may eat and drink until the white thread is distinct
from the black thread of dawn; then you shall complete the fast
until night; and do not approach them while you are devoted in
the temples. These are the boundaries of God, so do not transgress
them. It is thus that God clarifies His revelations to the people
who they may be righteous.6.Missing "the" between bold
2196
And conclude the Pilgrimage and the visit for God. But, if you
are prevented, then provide what offering is affordable; and do
not shave your heads until the offering reaches its destination.
Whoever of you is ill or has an ailment to his head, then he may
redeem by fasting or giving a charity or a rite. But if you are secure,
then whoever makes the visit, but decides to continue until the
Pilgrimage, then he shall provide what offering is affordable; but
for he who cannot find anything, then he must fast for three days
during the Pilgrimage and seven when he returns; this will make
a complete ten?this is for those whose family are not residents
to restricted temple. And be aware of God, and know that God is
severe in retribution.- In bold, does it mean receiving, like getting, or is it about already having in the verse. He has or he have;
2266 Does anyone of you desire that he have an estate with palm trees
and grapevines, and rivers flowing beneath it, and in it for him
are all kinds of fruits, then he is afflicted with old age and his
progeny is weak, and a firestorm strikes it and it all burns? It is
thus that God makes clear for you the signs that you may reflect.8.A typo, also maybe a missing "You" between "and" and "bring". both in bold;
327 ?You blend the night into the day, and blend the day into the
night; and you bring the living out of the dead, and bring the
dead out of the living; and You provide for whom You wish
without reckoning.?- In bold, just needs a hit on the space button after comma.
355 For God said ?O Jesus, I will terminate your life, and raise you
to Me, and purify you of those who have rejected, and make those
who have followed you above those who have rejected until the
Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, all of you,so I
will judge between you in what it was that you disputed.?Salam

Salam,
- in 364, takes to take
364
Say ?O people of the Book, let us come to a mutual understanding between us and between you; that we serve none except God,
and that we do not set up anything with Him, and that none of us
takes each other as patrons besides God.? If they turn away, then
say ?Bear witness that we have submitted.?2.Maybe a missing comma between bold
391 Those who have rejected and died while they were rejecters,
if the earth full of gold were to be ransomed with it would not
be accepted from any of them. For these there will be a painful
retribution and they will have no supporters.3.Capital supporter?
3122 When two parties from among you were obsessed that they would
fail; while God was their supporter. In God the believers should
trust.4.Needs comma between bold
3145 It is not permitted for a person to die except by the permission
of God in an appointed record. And whoever wants the reward of
this world We give him of it, and whoever wants the reward of the
Hereafter, We give him of it. And We will reward the thankful.5.Capital victor?
3150 It is God who is your Patron, and He is the best victor.

2150 And wherever you go out, you shall set yourself towards the
restricted temple. And wherever you may be you shall set
yourselves towards it; that the people will have no room for
debate with you, except those of them who are wicked. You shall
not be concerned by them, but be concerned by Me; so that I may
complete My blessings upon you and that you may be guided.This is correct. The first part is singular (addressing the prophet), while the second part addresses all the believers.

Salam,
Verse 538 which is about penalty for stealing, it is poorly translated. For new readers it would be very misleading. I think the previous translation is better and fits well with the story of Joseph.
The current translation of 538
The male thief, and the female thief, you shall cut their hands as a penalty for what they have earned?a restraint from God. God is Noble, Wise.From "The Quran A Monotheist Translation" 2013 print version
538 As for the thief, both male and female, you shall cut from their resources-as a penalty for what they have earned-to be made an example of from God. God is Noble, Wise.

Salam,
Just making sure for the following verse, if it is repentance to God or repentance from God. Either way, I understand what is implied.
492
And it is not for a believer to kill another believer except by
accident. And whoever kills a believer by accident, then he shall
free a believing slave, and give compensation to the family; except
if they remit it. If he was from a people who are enemies to you,
and he was a believer, then you shall free a believing slave. And
if he was from a people with whom you have a covenant, then a
compensation to his family, and free a believing slave. Whoever
does not find, then the fasting of two months sequentially as a
repentance from God; for God is Knowledgeable, Wise.Salam

Salam,
1.Is the bold correct?
550 Is it the judgment of the days of ignorance that they seek? And who
is better than God as judgment for a people who comprehend?- Missing "the" between bold
597 God has made the Ka?aba, the restricted shrine, to stand for the
people, and for the restricted month, and the offerings, and the
regulations; that is so you may know that God knows what is
in the heavens and what is in earth, and that God is aware of all
things.- Missing "they" between bold
5104 And if they are told ?Come to what God has sent down, and to
the messenger;? they say ?We are content with what we found
our fathers doing.? What if their fathers did not know anything nor were guided?4.Make "you" capital
5114
Jesus, son of Mary, said ?Our god, our Lord, send down
to us a feast from the heaven, that it becomes a joy to us from the first to
the last, and a sign from You, and provide for us, you are the best provider.?Salam

- Capital initiator?
614 Say ?Shall I take other than God as an ally; the initiator of the
heavens and the earth; while He feeds and is not fed!? Say ?I
have been commanded to be the first who submits.? And do not
be of the polytheists.2.In one verse "who" is capital and in another its small.
699 And He is the One who sent down water from the heaven, and
We brought out with it plants of every kind. We brought out from
it a green from which We bring out complex seeds; and what
is from the palm trees, from its sheaths hanging low and near;
and gardens of grapes; and olives and pomegranates, comparable
and not comparable. Look at its fruit when it blossoms and its
ripeness. In this are signs for a people who believe.6141 And He is the One Who initiated gardens; both trellised and
untrellised; and palm trees, and plants, all with different taste;
and olives and pomegranates, comparable and not comparable.
Eat from its fruit when it blossoms and give its due on the day of
its harvest; and do not waste. He does not like the wasteful.3.Capital or small might?
6147 If they deny you, then say ?Your Lord has vast Mercy, but His
Might will not be turned away from the criminal people.?6148 Those who are polytheists will say ?If God wished, we would not
have set up partners, nor would have our fathers, nor would we
have made anything forbidden.? Those before them lied in the
same way, until they tasted Our might. Say ?Do you have any
knowledge to bring out to us? You only follow conjecture, you
only guess.?4.Capital day?
6158 Do they wait until the angels come to them, or your Lord comes,
or certain signs come from your Lord? The day certain signs
come from your Lord, it will do no good for any soul to believe if
it did not believe before, or it gained good through its belief. Say
?Wait, for we are waiting.?Salam

335 "in this respect" wasn't said in Qur'anic text. You can use "with/by it" if you wanna translate "bi-hi". "hi" related with "ma" and "bi" is "with or by".

Salam,
3.Capital or small might?
6147 If they deny you, then say ?Your Lord has vast Mercy, but His
Might will not be turned away from the criminal people.?I have made both those words "small" as they are not stated as direct attributes.
All other fixes made and uploaded.

Hoping this is the right place to put this. Not sure if this is an error.
In 262 the FM translation says "Surely those who believe; and those who are..." while Qur'an Corpus says "...those who believed and those who became..." According to Corpus both are plural perfect (pluperfect) verbs, which indicate something taking place in the past.

Salam,
1.Make you capital
5116 And God will say ?O Jesus, son of Mary, did you tell the people
to take you and your mother as gods other than God?? He said
?Glory to you, I cannot say what I have no right of. If I had said
it then You know it, You know what is in my self while I do not
know what is in Your self. You are the Knower of the unseen.?2.Maybe day is capital
753 Are they waiting for what it says to come true? On the day it comes
true, those who previously forgot it will say ?The messengers of
our Lord have come with the truth! Are there any intercessors
to intercede for us? Or can we be sent back and we will work
differently than what we did?? They have lost their souls and
what they have invented has abandoned them.3.Missing dot in the end of verse
766 The leaders who rejected from among his people said ?We see
you in foolishness, and we think you are one of the liars?- Is last sentence correct?
7147 And those who deny Our revelations and the meeting of the
Hereafter, their works have collapsed. Will they not be recompensed
except for what they used to do?- Make He small
7175 And recite to them the news of the person whom Our revelations
were given to him, but he removed himself from them, and thus
the devil followed him, and He became of those who went astray.- I think belongs is correct
7180 And to God belong the most beautiful names, so call Him by
them; and leave alone those who deviate His names. They will be
punished for what they used to do.7.Missing not between bold words
856 Those of them with whom you made a pledge, then they break
their pledge every time, and they do take heed.- Missing the before Merciful?
9104 Did they not know that it is God who accepts repentance from His
servants, and He takes the charities, and that God is the Pardoner,
Merciful.9.Make you and God capital
1010 Their saying in it is ?Be you glorified, our god!? And their
greeting in it is ?Peace,? and the end of their saying is ?Praise
be to God, Lord of the worlds!?- Change to belongs
1066 Certainly, to God belong all who are in the heavens and those who
are on the earth. As for those who call on partners besides God,
they only follow conjecture, and they only guess.- Capital day?
118 And if We delay for them the retribution to a near period, they
will say ?What has kept it?? Alas, on the day it comes to them,
nothing will turn it away from them, and they will be surrounded
by that which they used to mock.- Is it one or world?
1199 And they were followed by a curse in this one, and on the Day of
Resurrection. What a miserable path to follow!- capital expert
11111 And to each your Lord will recompense their works. He is expert
in what they do.- Remove the?
1245 And the one of them who had been saved and remembered after
all this time said ?I will tell you of its interpretation, so let me be
sent.?- Needs second apostrophe at the end of verse 1282
1281 ?Return to your father, and tell him ?Our father, your son has
stolen, and we did not witness except what we learned, and we
could not know the unseen!?
1282 ?And ask the people of the town which we were in, and the caravan
which we have returned with. We are being truthful.?- Should protector be capital?
12101 ?My Lord, You have given me sovereignty and taught me the
interpretation of the narrations. Initiator of the heavens and the
earth, You are my protector in this world and the Hereafter. Let
me die as one who has submitted, and join me with the good
doers.?- I think after name them is part of what is to be said
1333 It is He who is standing upon every soul for what it has earned;
yet they set up partners with God. Say ?Name them?? Or are you
informing Him of what He does not know on the earth or is it
just a show of words? Indeed, to the rejecters, their scheming is
made to appear pleasing, and they are repelled from the path. And
whoever God misguides will have no guide.Salam

woe to the rejecters from a severe retribution.2.Missing dot in the end
1411 Their messengers said ?We are indeed mortals like you, but
God will bestow His grace upon whom He pleases from His
servants. And it is not up to us to bring you proof except with the
permission of God. And in God the believers should place their
trust?3.Change is to it, in bold
1634 Thus is was, that the evil of their work has afflicted them, and
they will be surrounded by that which they used to mock.4.Im unsure about this. Is the world correct, or should it be this world?
1641 And those who have emigrated for God, after they were oppressed,
We will grant them good in the world, and the reward of the
Hereafter will be greater, if only they knew.5.Remove extra "will", in bold
178 Perhaps your Lord will have mercy on you, and if you revert then
will We will also revert. And We made Hell a gathering place for
the rejecters.6.Missing dot in the end
1790 And they said ?We will not believe unto you until you cause a
spring of water to burst out of the ground?- Unsure about following 1816. Is it part of what the youths said?
1814 And We made firm their hearts when they stood and said ?Our
Lord, the Lord of the heavens and the earth, we will not call
besides Him any god. If we have done so then it was in error.?1815 ?Here are our people, they have taken gods besides Him, while
they do not come with any clear authority. Who then is more
wicked than he who invents lies about God??1816 ?So when you withdraw from them and what they serve besides
God, seek refuge in the cave, and your Lord will spread His mercy
upon you and prepare for your problem a solution.?Salam

2131 And We made on the earth stabilizers so that it would not tumble

2185 The month of Ramadhan, in which the Qur?an was sent down, as
a guide to the people and as clarifications of the guidance and the
criterion. Those of you who witness the month shall fast therein;
and whoever is ill or traveling, then the same number from
different days. God wants to bring you ease and not to bring you
hardship; and so that you may complete the count, and magnify
God for what He has guided you, that you may be thankful.829 O you who believe, if you are aware of God, He will make a
criterion for you, and He will cancel your sins and forgive you.

better for him with His Lord. And the livestock has been made
permissible for you; except what is being recited to you; so avoid

2392 The knower of the unseen and the seen. Be He exalted above
what they set up.17.Change to "this world"
2419 As for those who enjoy that immorality spreads among those who
have believed, they will have a painful retribution in the world
and the Hereafter. And God knows while you do not know.18.Make "Bounty" small
2433 And let those who are not able to marry continue to be chaste
until God enriches them of His Bounty. And if those who are
committed to by your oath seek to consummate the marriage, then
document it with them if you find that they are ready, and give
them from the wealth of God which He has bestowed upon you.
And do not force your young women to be unchaste if they have
desired to be emancipated, in order that you may make a gain in
the goods of this worldly life. And if anyone has compelled them,
then for their compulsion, God is Forgiving, Merciful.- Make "expert" capital
2558 And put your trust in the Living Who does not die, and glorify
His praise. It is enough for Him that He is expert in the sins of His
servants.20.Missing dots in both verses, in the end

Lord of the worlds?2617 ?So send with us the Children of Israel??

2838 And Pharaoh said ?O commanders, I have not known of any god
for you other than me. Therefore, O Haamaan, fire-up the bricks
and make for me a high platform, so perhaps I may take a look at
the god of Moses; though I think he is one of the liars.?27.Capital "able"?
3037 Did they not see that God grants the provisions for whom He
wills, and He is able? In that are signs for a people who believe.28.Make "Lord" small?
324 God is the One who has created the heavens and the earth, and
what is between them in six days, then He settled upon the
Throne. You do not have besides Him any Lord, nor intercessor.
Will you not then remember?29.Missing dot in the end
3366 On the Day when their faces will be turned over in the Fire, they
will say ?Oh, we wish we had obeyed God, and obeyed the messenger?30.Which day, is it the Last Day or day of retribution?

hour, nor advance.?31.Is "Best" correct? Check some other verses, they have small "best", such as "best Creator" or "best to respond"
3439 Say ?My Lord gives provisions for whom He wishes of His servants
and He restricts. And anything you spend, He will replace
it; and He is the Best of providers.?
