Kjo, se Allahu është Mbrojtësi i atyre që besojnë, kurse jobesimtarët nuk kanë mbrojtës.
উল্লিখিত পরিণাম এজন্য যে, নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ মু’মিনদের অভিভাবক। আর নিশ্চয় কাফিরদের কোনো অভিভাবক নেই।
To je zato što je Allah zaštitnik onih koji vjeruju i što nevjernici zaštitnika nemaju.
To je zato što je Allah zaštitnik onih koji vjeruju i što nevjernici zaštitnika nemaju.
Ko waɗi ɗum, ko tawde ko Allah woni giɗo gooŋɗiinɓe ɓeen; hara non yedduɓe ɓen, giɗo (woo) alanaa ɓe.
ეს იმიტომ, რომ ალლაჰი მფარველია იმათი, რომელთაც ირწმუნეს, ხოლო ურწმუნოებს არ ჰყავთ მფარველი.
Dies, weil Allah der Schutzherr derjenigen ist, die glauben, und weil die Ungläubigen keinen Schutzherrn haben.
Αυτό επειδή ο Αλλάχ είναι ο Υποστηρικτής εκείνων που πιστεύουν, ενώ για τους άπιστους δεν υπάρχει κανένας υποστηρικτής!
यह इसलिए कि निःसंदेह अल्लाह उन लोगों का संरक्षक है जो ईमान लाए और इसलिए कि निःसंदेह काफ़िरों का कोई संरक्षक नहीं।[4]
Ciò perché in verità Allāh è il sostenitore di quelli che hanno creduto, e in verità i miscredenti non hanno nessun sostenitore.
11. Taip yra, nes Allahas yra tikinčiųjų Maula (Viešpats, Valdovas, Padėjėjas, Saugotojas, t. t.), kuomet netikintieji jokio Maula (Viešpačio, Vadovo, Padėjėjo, Sergėtojo, t. t) neturi.
Kun waan Allaahn gargaaraa warra amananii ta’eefi kaafiroonni immoo gargaaraan isaaniif hinjiru.
Это потому, что Аллах — покровитель тех, которые уверовали, и потому, что отвергшие веру — нет у них покровителя.
То је зато што је Аллах заштитник оних који верују и што неверници немају заштитника.
Hayo ni kwa sababu Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mlinzi wa wale walioamini. Na makafiri hawana mlinzi.
Detta sker därför att Gud är de troendes beskyddare medan de otrogna inte har någon beskyddare alls.
Bu, Allah'ın, iman edenlerin velisi olmasından dolayıdır. Küfre sapanlar (var ya), onların velisi yoktur.
وه اس لئے کہ ایمان والوں کا کارساز خود اللہ تعالیٰ ہے اور اس لئے کہ کافروں کا کوئی کارساز نہیں.[1]
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
That is because they hated what God revealed, so He nullified their deeds.
That is because they are averse to that which Allah hath revealed, therefor maketh He their actions fruitless
That is because they were averse from what God has revealed; but their works shall be void
This - because they were averse from the command which God sent down; Fruitless, therefore, shall their works become
This shall befall them, because they have rejected with abhorrence that which God hath revealed: Wherefore their works shall become of no avail

The translators word this verse differently
Have they not journeyed through the earth and seen the consequences for those before them? God poured destruction upon them, and for the unbelievers is something comparable.
Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those who were before them? Allah wiped them out. And for the disbelievers there will be the like thereof
Have they not journeyed through the land and seen how was the end of those before them? God destroyed them; and for the misbelievers is the like thereof
Have they not journeyed through the land, and seen what hath been the end of those who flourished before them? God brought destruction on them: and the like of this doth await the infidels
Do they not travel through the earth, and see what hath been the end of those who were before them? God utterly destroyed them: And the like catastrophe awaiteth the unbelievers

God will admit those who believe and do good deeds into gardens beneath which rivers flow. As for those who disbelieve, they enjoy themselves, and eat as cattle eat, and the Fire will be their dwelling.
Lo! Allah will cause those who believe and do good works to enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow; while those who disbelieve take their comfort in this life and eat even as the cattle eat, and the Fire is their habitation
Verily, God causes those who believe and do right to enter into gardens beneath which rivers flow; but those who misbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as the cattle eat; but the fire is the resort for them

How many a town was more powerful than your town which evicted you? We destroyed them, and there was no helper for them.
And how many a township stronger than thy township (O Muhammad) which hath cast thee out, have We destroyed, and they had no helper

In plain words — none yet for this verse
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 — 0.48 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.
