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.
The translators word this verse differently
Marked words appear in this translation and in no other English translation of this verse. Common small words and older spellings are not marked. The marks show where the wording differs, not where the meaning does.
Whoever disbelieves-let not his disbelief sadden you. To Us is their return. Then We will inform them of what they did. God knows what lies within the hearts.

Sa për ata që nuk besojnë, ti mos u brengos për mosbesimin e tyre! Kthimi i tyre është te Ne, e Ne do t'i njoftojmë për atë që kanë punuar. Pa dyshim, Allahu e di mirë çfarë ka në zemra.
আর যে কুফরী করে, তার কুফরী যেন (হে রাসূল!) তোমাকে ব্যথিত না করে। আমার কাছেই তাদের প্রত্যাবর্তন। অতঃপর তারা যে আমল করতো আমি তা তাদেরকে জানিয়ে দিবো। নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ অন্তরসমূহে যা আছে, তা সম্পর্কে সম্যক অবহিত।
A onaj koji ne vjeruje, pa neka te ne zabrinjava nevjerovanje njegovo. Nama će se svi vratiti i Mi ćemo ih o onom šta su radili obavijestiti; Allah, uistinu, dobro zna sve što u grudima je.

ხოლო ვინც ურწმუნო გახდება, — ნუ დაგამწუხრებს მისი ურწმუნოება. (რადგან) ჩვენთან არის მათი დაბრუნება, და ჩვენ ვაუწყებთ მათ იმას, რასაც ისინი სჩადიოდნენ. ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰმა იცის ის, რაც გულებშია.
Und wer ungläubig ist, dessen Unglaube soll dich nicht traurig machen. Zu Uns wird ihre Rückkehr sein und dann werden Wir ihnen kundtun, was sie taten. Wahrlich, Allah ist wissend über das Innerste der Brüste.
Όποιος όμως αρνήθηκε την πίστη, ας μη σε στεναχωρήσει (ω, Προφήτη) η απιστία του. Προς Εμάς θα είναι η επιστροφή τους, και θα τους ενημερώσουμε για ό,τι έκαναν. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι Παντογνώστης για ό,τι υπάρχει στα στήθη.
तथा जिसने कुफ़्र किया, उसका कुफ़्र आपको शोकाकुल न करे। हमारी ही ओर उन्हें लौटकर आना है, फिर हम उन्हें बताएँगे, जो कुछ उन्होंने किया। निःसंदेह अल्लाह दिलों के भेदों को ख़ूब जानने वाला है।
E chi nega, non ti affliggere per la sua miscredenza: a Noi è il loro ritorno; li informeremo di ciò che facevano: in verità Allāh conosce ciò che è nei petti.

А если кто отверг веру — пусть тебя не печалит его неверие. К Нам их возвращение, и Мы возвестим им о том, что они совершали. Воистину, Аллах — знающий то, что таится в сердцах.
А онај који не верује, па, нека те не забрињава његово неверовање. Нама ће сви да се врате и Ми ћемо о ономе шта су радили да их обавестимо; Аллах, уистину, добро зна све што је у грудима.
Na anayekufuru, isikuhuzunishe kufuru yake. Kwetu ndiyo marudio yao, na hapo tutawaambia waliyoyatenda. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mjuzi wa yaliyomo vifuani.
Låt dig inte bedrövas av de otrognas förnekelse. Till oss ska de vända åter och vi ska upplysa dem om vad de gjort. Gud vet vad som döljs i människans inre.
Kim de küfre saparsa, artık onun küfre sapması seni üzmesin. Onların dönüşü bizedir, artık biz de onlara yapmakta olduklarını haber vereceğiz. Allah, göğüslerin içindekini (kalplerde olanı) hakkıyla bilendir.
کافروں کے کفر سے آپ رنجیده نہ ہوں[1] ، آخر ان سب کو لوٹنا تو ہماری جانب ہی ہے پھر ہم ان کو بتائیں گے جو انہوں نے کیا ہے، بے شک اللہ سینوں[2] کے بھیدوں[3] تک سے واقف ہے.
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
Whoever submits himself wholly to God, and is a doer of good, has grasped the most trustworthy handle. With God rests the outcome of all events.
Whosoever surrendereth his purpose to Allah while doing good, he verily hath grasped the firm hand-hold. Unto Allah belongeth the sequel of all things
But he who resigns his face unto God, and does good, he has grasped the firm handle; unto God is the issue of affairs
But whoso setteth his face toward God with self-surrender, and is a doer of that which is good, hath laid hold on a sure handle; for unto God is the issue of all things
Whoever resigneth himself unto God, being a worker of righteousness, taketh hold on a strong handle; and unto God belongeth the issue of all things

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 — 0.65 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.
