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.
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.
Without a doubt, what you call me to has no say in this world, or in the Hereafter; and our turning back is to God; and the transgressors are the inmates of the Fire.

S'ka dyshim se ajo në të cilën më thërrisni nuk është thirrje me vlerë, as në këtë botë, as në botën tjetër, e kthimi ynë është tek Allahu dhe ata që i kalojnë kufijtë janë banorë të Zjarrit.
এ ব্যাপারে কোনো সন্দেহ নেই যে, তোমরা আমাকে যার দিকে আহ্বান করছ, সে দুনিয়া ও আখিরাতে আহ্বান (ও ইবাদত) এর কোনোই যোগ্যতা রাখে না।(২৩) আর আমাদের প্রত্যাবর্তন আল্লাহরই কাছে। আর নিশ্চয় সীমালঙ্ঘনকারীরাই জাহান্নামের অধিবাসী।
Nema nimalo sumnje u to da se ono čemu vi mene pozivate neće nikom ni na ovom ni na onom svijetu odazvati, i da je naš povratak Allahu i da će oni koji su pretjerivali stanovnici u Ognju biti.

უეჭველად, ის, რისკენაც მე მომიხმობთ, არ აქვს მას მოწოდება (სარგებელი) არც ამქვეყნად და არც შემდგომ ცხოვრებაში. და უეჭველად, ჩვენი დაბრუნება ალლაჰთანაა, და უეჭველად, გადამეტებულები (ურწმუნოები და მრავალღმერთიანები) — ისინი ცეცხლის მაცხოვრებლები არიან!
Zweifellos ist, dass demjenigen, zu dem ihr mich ruft, keine Anrufung zusteht, weder im Diesseits noch im Jenseits, und dass unsere Rückkehr zu Allah sein wird und dass die Maßlosen Insassen des (Höllen)feuers sein werden.
Πράγματι, αυτοί (οι ψεύτικοι θεοί) που εσείς με καλείτε να πιστέψω σ' αυτούς, δεν τους ανήκει καμία επίκληση (και δεν μπορούν να ανταποκριθούν σε καμία επίκληση), ούτε στην εγκόσμια ζωή, ούτε στη Μέλλουσα Ζωή. Πράγματι, η επιστροφή μας θα είναι προς τον Αλλάχ, και πράγματι, οι παραβάτες θα είναι οι κάτοικοι της Φωτιάς.
निःसंदेह तुम जिसकी ओर मुझे बुला रहे हो, वह न तो दुनिया में पुकारे जाने के योग्य[11] है और न आख़िरत में। तथा यह कि निश्चय हमारा लौटना अल्लाह की ओर है और यह कि निश्चय हद से आगे बढ़ने वाले ही, आग में रहने वाले हैं।
Non c’è dubbio che ciò a cui m’invitate non ha voce in terra, né nell’ Aldilà e che in verità il nostro ritorno sarà ad Allāh e che in verità i licenziosi saranno gente destinata al Fuoco.
43. Nėra abejonės, kad jūs kviečiate mane (garbinti) pas tą, kuris negali patenkinti (man) mano prašymo (ar atsakyti į mano maldavimą) šiame pasaulyje ar Amžinybėje. Ir mūsų sugrįžimas bus pas Allahą, o Al-Musrifūn (t. y. daugiadieviai ir išdidūs, kurie daro didžiąsias nuodėmes, Allaho nustatytų ribų pažeidėjai) – jie bus Ugnies gyventojai.

Нет сомнения в том, что то, к чему вы меня призываете, не имеет ответа ни в этом мире, ни в Последней жизни, и что наше возвращение — к Аллаху. И что воистину, преступающие всякую меру — они и есть обитатели адского огня!
Нема нимало сумње у то да се они којима ме позивате неће ником ни на овом ни на Будућем свету одазвати и да ћемо се Аллаху вратити и да ће незнанобошци становници у Огњу бити.
Bila ya shaka mnayeniitia kumuabudu hastahiki wito duniani wala Akhera. Na hakika marejeo yetu ni kwa Mwenyezi Mungu. Na wanaopindukia mipaka ndio watu wa Motoni!
Det råder ingen tvekan om att det ni kallar mig till inte har något värde, varken i detta eller kommande liv. Vi ska alla återvända till Gud, och de som ständigt överträder gränserna ska höra till eldens folk.
Elbette beni kendisine davet ettiğiniz şeylerin dünyada ve ahrette herhangi bir daveti yoktur. Dönüşümüz muhakkak Allah’adır. Şüphesiz, aşırı gidenler cehennemliklerin ta kendileridir.
یہ یقینی امر ہے[1] کہ تم مجھے جس کی طرف بلا رہے ہو وه تو نہ دنیا میں پکارے جانے کے قابل ہے[2] نہ آخرت میں[3]، اور یہ (بھی یقینی بات ہے) کہ ہم سب کا لوٹنا اللہ کی طرف ہے[4] اور حد سے گزر جانے والے ہی (یقیناً) اہل دوزخ ہیں.[5]
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.

So God protected him from the evils of their scheming, while a terrible torment besieged Pharaoh's clan.
So Allah warded off from him the evils which they plotted, while a dreadful doom encompassed Pharaoh's folk
And God guarded him from the evils of what they plotted, and there closed in upon Pharaoh evil woe
So God preserved him from the evils which they had planned, and the woe of the punishment encompassed the people of Pharaoh
Wherefore God delivered him from the evils which they had devised; and a grievous punishment encompassed the people of Pharaoh

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.
