Not A Grammatical Error.

[Alen]

Peace,
Respect.

I've noticed this long time ago but didn't pay much attention:

091.015
YUSUFALI: And for Him is no fear of its consequences.
PICKTHAL: He dreadeth not the sequel (of events).
SHAKIR: And He fears not its consequence.

And this same verse on this website and in my translation of The Message>>>>

91:15 Yet, those who came after remain heedless.

My question couldn't be simpler:
why is this sentence different?

And this is just the beginning of what I've noticed.
Stay here, I'll be back.

Peace.

Peace,

I have 4 translations of The Qur'an now, one from free minds, called The Message and the three other ones, which somehow differ when it comes to translating certain verses.

For example, chapter 30, verse 2 says that Romans have won but in the translations by sunnis it says that Romans have been defeated.

Also: 83:27 is differently translated.

I'm busy with this project now, so I'll be delivering more info on this matter in the future, God willing and I truly hope I'll locate the solution, God willing because there are so many translators out there and everyone agrees on same things but what I don't like is when people add a sentence or delete it or translate it completely differently. God knows best.

May God forgive me, Iif I have made a sin/mistake/accusation, I'm just trying to make progress.
Glory be to God.

Peace.

Have you read this?

In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.
30:1 ALM.
30:2 The Romans have won.
30:3 At the lowest part on the earth. But after their victory, they will be defeated.

But have you read the same in other translations?
In other translations it says that Romans have been defeated and later on they will win.

 

Peace.

In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.
30:1 ALM.
30:2 The Romans have won
transliteration ( ghulibet erroum )
.-------- Ghulibet = defeated
 -------- erroum = the romains
30:3 At the lowest part on the earth. But after their victory, they will be defeated
transliteration ( fi adna al ardh wa baadaha sa yaghliboone)
------Fi = in
------Adna = Lowest / nearest
------Al Ardh= the land / Earth
------Wa = and
------Baadaha = After that / after her / after it
------sa yaghriboune = They will win

I  translated word per word,  without having in my mind the meaning of the sentence , i made in bold the words i am sure about, i left the others for you to make the sentence correctly with the english grammar

[loxbox13]

I believe that the best tranlation can only be made from someone who doesn't believe in any religion, an atheist for example , and does it sicere professionel work and in the same time understands perfectly arabic and english, as to myself,  i see for exemple a verse that is called a miracle
the creation
we created the heavens and the earth as one piece than we clove them asunder
but in the quran it says
we created the heavens and the earth rataqa we fataqnahouma
 rataqa = Seed  /  like plant's seed ,  Than fataqa in plurial = fataqnahouma = seed when it get cloved to give the plant or the tree,  this is a litteral meaning

I think it's better to translate the quran's words litteraly and let people decide , or understand, just like arabs can understand what does a seed of a plan do when it get cloved to give a tree  =  parable of the big bang

Allah know best
