Thuaj: "Lavdërimi i takon Allahut, i Cili nuk ka fëmijë, nuk ka ortak në sundimin e Tij dhe nuk ka nevojë për ndonjë mbrojtës nga dobësia. Dhe madhëroje shumë Atë!"
আর (হে রাসূল!) বলো: ‘সমস্ত প্রশংসা আল্লাহরই, যিনি কোনো সন্তান গ্রহণ করেননি, রাজত্বে তাঁর কোনো শরীক নেই এবং অপমান থেকে বাঁচতে তাঁর কোনো অভিভাবকের প্রয়োজন নেই।’ আর তুমি বেশি বেশি তাঁর শ্রেষ্ঠত্ব ও মাহাত্ম্য ঘোষণা করো।

და თქვი: «ქება ალლაჰს, რომელმაც არ აიყვანა თავისთვის შვილი, და არ ჰყავს მას თანაზიარი მბრძანებლობაში, და მას არ ჰყოლია მფარველი [რომ დაეცვა ალლაჰი] დამცირებისგან [რადგან იგი უზენაესია, დიდებული და არავისზე არაა დამოკიდებული]!» და განადიდე იგი ღირსეული დიდებით!
Und sag: „Der Lob gebührt Allah, Der Sich kein Kind genommen hat, und Der weder einen Teilhaber an Seiner Herrschaft hat, noch einen Beschützer vor Erniedrigung benötigt.“ Und so verherrliche Ihn als den Größten!
Και πες: «Όλος ο έπαινος ανήκει στον Αλλάχ, ο Οποίος δεν απέκτησε έναν γιο [αφού μόνο ο αδύναμος είναι αυτός που χρειάζεται έναν γιο ως συνέταιρο, κληρονόμο, βοηθό όταν θα γεράσει, ή χρειάζεται απογόνους απ' αυτόν], ούτε έχει κανέναν εταίρο στο Βασίλειό Του [αφού μόνο οι αδύναμοι είναι αυτοί που χρειάζονται εταίρους], ούτε χρειάζεται κανέναν υποστηρικτή (ή σύμμαχο ή προστάτη) λόγω αδυναμίας. Και δόξασέ Τον πολύ.»
तथा कहो : सब प्रशंसा अल्लाह के लिए है, जिसने (अपने लिए) कोई संतान नहीं बनाई, और न राज्य में उसका कोई साझी है, और न विवशता (कमज़ोरी) के कारण उसका कोई मददगार है। और आप उसकी पूर्ण महिमा का गान करें।
E di’: «Lodato sia Allāh +, Colui che non si è preso un figlio, e che non ha nessun simile nel Regno, e che non ha alcun protettore per debolezza”, ed esaltaLo a gran voce!
111. Ir sakyk: „Visa šlovė ir padėka priklauso Allahui, Kuris nepagimdė sūnaus (arba vaikų), ir Kuris neturi partnerių (Savo) Karalystėje, nei Jis yra žemas, kad turėtų Vali (padėjėją, globėją ar saugotoją). Ir garbinkite Jį visu didingumu.“
”Faaruun hundi kan Rabbii ilma hin godhatiniiti, kan mootummaa keessatti shariika hin qabneefi kan sababa salphinaa irraa gargaaraan isaaf hin jirreeti” jedhi. Guddisuu Isa guddisi.
И скажи: «Хвала Аллаху, Который не взял Себе дитя, и нет у Него сотоварища во владычестве, и нет у Него покровителя от унижения». И возвеличь Его премного.
И реци: „Сва хвала Аллаху Који Себи није узео детета и Који у власти нема сличног, и Коме не треба заштитник због немоћи“ – и истински Га величај!
Na sema: Alhamdulillah (sifa njema zote ni za Mwenyezi Mungu) ambaye hakujifanyia mwana yeyote, wala hana mshirika yeyote katika ufalme, wala hana mlinzi yeyote wa kumsaidia kwa sababu ya udhaifu. Na mtukuze kwa utukufu mkubwa.
Säg: ”Alla lovprisningar hör till Gud, som inte har någon son och som inte delar sitt herravälde med någon och som inte behöver någon som skyddar honom mot ovärdighet.” Ja, prisa ständigt hans storhet!
De ki: "Hamt, çocuk edinmeyen, mülkünde ortağı olmayan ve düşkünlükten dolayı bir veliye de (ihtiyacı) bulunmayan Allah'a mahsustur.” “Allahu Ekber” diyerek O'nu tazim et.
اور یہ کہہ دیجیئے کہ تمام تعریفیں اللہ ہی کے لئے ہیں جو نہ اوﻻد رکھتا ہے نہ اپنی بادشاہت میں کسی کو شریک وساجھی رکھتا ہے اور نہ وه کمزور ہے کہ اسے کسی حمایتی کی ضرورت ہو اور تو اس کی پوری پوری بڑائی بیان کرتا ره.
5 cleared translations, newest first, by year of publication, so the modern English comes before the historical ones. That is an ordering by date, not a judgement. Each is shown complete — this platform never excerpts a translation — and each renders under its translator's name. No translation here is marked as the correct one.
Which translations appear here is set by copyright: they are the ones whose rights could be documented and cleared. The selection is not a judgement that these are the best.
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

The translators word this verse differently
Say, "Call Him God, or call Him the Most Merciful. Whichever name you use, to Him belong the Best Names." And be neither loud in your prayer, nor silent in it, but follow a course in between.
Say (unto mankind): Cry unto Allah, or cry unto the Beneficent, unto whichsoever ye cry (it is the same). His are the most beautiful names. And thou (Muhammad), be not loud-voiced in thy worship nor yet silent therein, but follow a way between
Say, 'Call on God, or call on the Merciful One, whichever ye may call on Him by; for His are the best of names.' And do not say thy prayers openly, nor yet murmur them, but seek a way between these
SAY: Call upon God (Allah), or call upon the God of Mercy (Arrahman), by whichsoever ye will invoke him: He hath most excellent names. And be not loud in thy prayer, neither pronounce it too low; but between these follow a middle way
Say, call upon God, or call on the Merciful: By which soever of the two names ye invoke Him, it is equal; for He hath most excellent names. Pronounce not thy prayer aloud, neither pronounce it with too low a voice, but follow a middle way between these

These figures count the words the translations share. They measure wording, not meaning, and they do not say which translation is right.
Derived measure: mean pairwise Jaccard distance over the lowercased word sets of the 5 renderings above — 0.61 on a scale where 0 means identical wording and 1 means no shared words. It is computed, not judged.
The page says a verse is worded differently only above the cut below. The cut is a stated convention, not a property of the text, and it can be changed.
One bar per pair of renderings, longest bar for the pair sharing fewest words. Every pair is shown; none is singled out.
The platform does not say which is right, and does not characterise what the difference means. The renderings are placed together so the difference is visible; reading it is the reader's work.

7 sources stand behind this page. Each is listed once, in the order the page first cites it, with the licence it was cleared under and what was actually read. Nothing on this page rests on a source that is not here.
CLEARED. Licence read verbatim from the block embedded in this very file. Ingested exactly as shipped: no normalisation, no stripping of marks, no Unicode recomposition.
CLEARED on a licence read first-hand from the translator's own download page, not from an aggregator. Tanzil also hosts this translation, but under a blanket "non-commercial purposes only" term that directs the user to the translator or publisher for permission - a hosting disclaimer, not a grant - so the grant was taken from the licensor directly. The "God" edition was ingested; ClearQuran also publishes an "Allah" edition, differing in how the divine name is rendered, which is not ingested.
CLEARED ON THE WORK, WITH TWO RECORDED CAVEATS ON THIS COPY. (1) Rights basis is the expired copyright term, NOT the redistributing repository's licence. That repository dedicates its contents to the public domain under the Unlicense while also redistributing plainly in-copyright translations (Abdel Haleem, Saheeh International, The Study Quran), so it is dedicating rights it cannot hold and its blanket grant is not relied upon here. (2) The file declares its own upstream as tanzil.net, and Tanzil attaches a non-commercial condition to its TRANSLATION distributions, though not to its Qur'anic text. Since Pickthall's copyright has expired, nobody holds rights in these words and no licence is required from anyone; Tanzil's terms are a contract binding those who download from Tanzil, which we did not. The chain is nonetheless not spotless and Anwar may prefer a clean digitisation of the 1930 printing. NOT VERIFIED: that this digital text matches the 1930 first printing rather than a later revised edition. No page images were collated. Recorded as unverified rather than presented as established. SERVED TEXT DIFFERS FROM THE CITED FILE AT ONE VERSE, 37:97: the file reads "red-hotfire" (a glued token, also in Gutenberg #16955); the served row reads "red-hot fire", restored 2026-09-13 from Pickthall, The Meaning of the Glorious Koran (London: George Allen & Unwin, printed for Alfred A. Knopf; 1930), p. 460, XXXVII 97 - scan archive.org in.ernet.dli.2015.216140, PDF page 475; banked data/derivation-sources/pickthall-1930-dli-2015.216140-text.pdf (sha256 70e81146c97fa3a590243a82e04e349108546074787e2551a78c616202138870) on Anwar Malik's grant.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. The digital edition's upstream is not stated by the redistributor and the printing is unverified. No statement of purpose is recorded for Palmer because none was sourced from his own preface in this pass; nothing is asserted on his behalf.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. TWO edition caveats. (1) The upstream is not stated by the redistributor. (2) Rodwell's own edition PRESENTS THE SURAHS IN HIS OWN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER, not the mushaf order — he says so in his preface. This digital text is keyed to mushaf order, so it derives from a restored-order printing (such as the Everyman edition) rather than from Rodwell's own arrangement. Which printing is not stated and has not been established.
CLEARED ON THE WORK. Term expired by every measure. The digital edition's upstream is NOT STATED by the redistributor, so the printing it represents is unverified; Sale's text was reprinted and re-edited many times between 1734 and 1900. Recorded as unverified rather than assumed to be the first edition.
CLEARED. Parallel edition, held in ayah_text_variants. It sits alongside the Uthmani spine for search normalisation and is never used to correct it.
