EditionTanzil Qur'an text (Uthmani) ·Creative Commons Attribution 3.0
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.
To God belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. He forgives whomever He wills, and He punishes whomever He wills. God is Forgiving and Merciful.

Vetëm Allahut i takon sundimi i qiejve e i Tokës. Ai fal kë të dojë dhe ndëshkon kë të dojë. Allahu është gjithnjë Falës i Madh e Mëshirëplotë.
আসমানসমূহ ও জমিনের সার্বভৌমত্ব আল্লাহর; তিনি যাকে ইচ্ছা ক্ষমা করেন, আর (৪) যাকে ইচ্ছা শাস্তি দেন। আর আল্লাহ অতি ক্ষমাশীল, পরম দয়ালু।
Allahova je vlast na nebesima i na Zemlji, On prašta kome On hoće, a kažnjava koga hoće – Allah mnogo prašta i samilostan je.
Allahova je vlast na nebesima i na Zemlji, On prašta kome On hoće, a kažnjava koga hoće – Allah mnogo prašta i samilostan je.
Ko Allah heeranii laamagol kammuuji ɗiin e leydi ndiin. Himo haforana mo o muuyani, o lepta mo o muuyani. Allah siforii won'de kaforoowo, jurmotooɗo.
და ალლაჰს ეკუთვნის ცათა და მიწის სამფლობელო. ის მიუტევებს, ინებებს ვისაც, და დასჯის, ინებებს ვისაც. და ალლაჰი მპატიებელი, შემწყალებელია.
Und Allah gehört die Herrschaft der Himmel und der Erde. Er vergibt, wem Er will, und Er straft, wen Er will. Und Allah ist allvergebend und barmherzig.
Στον Αλλάχ ανήκει η κυριαρχία των ουρανών και της γης. Συγχωρεί όποιον θέλει (με τη γενναιοδωρία Του) και τιμωρεί όποιον θέλει (με τη δικαιοσύνη Του). Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι Γαφούρ (Αυτός που συγχωρεί τα πάντα) και Ραχείμ (Πολυεύσπλαχνος).
और आकाशों तथा धरती का राज्य अल्लाह ही के लिए है। वह जिसे चाहता है क्षमा कर देता है और जिसे चाहता है दंड देता है, और अल्लाह बड़ा क्षमाशील, अत्यंत दयावान है।
E ad Allāh appartiene il Regno dei cieli e della terra; perdona chi vuole e punisce chi vuole, e Allāh è il Perdonatore, il Misericordioso.
14. Allahui priklauso dangaus ir žemės valdžia. Jis atleidžia tiems, kuriems panori, ir nubaudžia tuos, kuriuos panori. Ir yra Allahas Dažnai Atleidžiantis, Gailestingiausias.
Mootummaan samiileefi dachii kan Rabbiiti, Nama fedheef ni araarama; nama fedhes ni adaba. Rabbiin araaramaa, mararfataa ta’eera.
Аллаху принадлежит владычество небес и земли. Он прощает, кого пожелает, и наказывает, кого пожелает. А Аллах всегда был [и пребудет] прощающим, милующим.
Аллахова власт је на небесима и на Земљи, Он прашта коме хоће, а кажњава кога хоће – Аллах много опрашта грехе и милостив је.
Na Mwenyezi Mungu ndiye mwenye ufalme wa mbingu na ardhi. Humsamehe amtakaye, na humuadhibu amtakaye. Na Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kusamehe mno, Mwingi wa kurehemu.
Till Gud hör herraväldet över himlarna och jorden; han förlåter den han vill och straffar den han vill. Gud är ständigt förlåtande, barmhärtig.
Göklerin ve yerin mülkü Allah’a aittir. Dilediğini bağışlar, dilediğini cezalandırır. Allah çokça bağışlayıcıdır, çokça merhametlidir.
اور زمین اور آسمانوں کی بادشاہت اللہ ہی کے لئے ہے جسے چاہے بخشے اور جسے چاہے عذاب کرے۔ اور اللہ بڑا بخشنے واﻻ مہربان ہے.[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.

But you thought that the Messenger and the believers will never return to their families, and this seemed fine to your hearts; and you harbored evil thoughts, and were uncivilized people.
Nay, but ye deemed that the messenger and the believers would never return to their own folk, and that was made fairseeming in your hearts, and ye did think an evil thought, and ye were worthless folk
Nay, ye thought that the Apostle and the believers would not ever return again to their families; that was made seemly in your hearts! and ye thought evil thoughts, and ye were a corrupt people

Truly ye imagined that the apostle and the true believers would never return to their families; and this was prepared in your hearts: But ye imagined an evil imagination; and ye are a corrupt people

Those who lagged behind will say when you depart to collect the gains, "Let us follow you." They want to change the Word of God. Say, "You will not follow us; God has said so before." Then they will say, "But you are jealous of us." In fact, they understand only a little.
Those who were left behind will say, when ye set forth to capture booty: Let us go with you. They fain would change the verdict of Allah. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Ye shall not go with us. Thus hath Allah said beforehand. Then they will say: Ye are envious of us. Nay, but they understand not, save a little
Those who were left behind shall say when ye have gone forth to spoils that ye may take, 'Let us follow you;' they wish to change God's words. Say, 'Ye shall by no means follow us; thus did God say before!' They will say, 'Nay! but ye envy us!' Nay! they did not understand save a little
They who took not the field with you will say, when ye go forth to the spoil to take it, "Let us follow you." Fain would they change the word of God. SAY: Ye shall by no means follow us: thus hath God said already. They will say, "Nay, ye are jealous of us." Nay! they are men of little understanding
Those who were left behind will say, when ye go forth to take the spoil, suffer us to follow you. They seek to change the word of God. Say, ye shall by no means follow us: Thus hath God said heretofore. They will reply, nay; ye envy us a share of the booty. But they are men of small understanding

Say unto those of the wandering Arabs who were left behind: Ye will be called against a folk of mighty prowess, to fight them until they surrender; and if ye obey, Allah will give you a fair reward; but if ye turn away as ye did turn away before, He will punish you with a painful doom
Say to those desert Arabs who were left behind, 'Ye shall be called out against a people endowed with vehement valour, and shall fight them or they shall become Muslims. And if ye obey, God will give you a good hire; but if ye turn your backs, as ye turned your backs before, He will torment you with grievous woe
SAY to those Arabs of the desert, who took not the field, ye shall be called forth against a people of mighty valour. Ye shall do battle with them, or they shall profess Islam. If ye obey, a goodly recompense will God give you; but if ye turn back, as ye turned back aforetime, He will chastise you with a sore chastisement
Say unto the Arabs of the desert who were left behind, ye shall be called forth against a mighty and a warlike nation: Ye shall fight against them, or they shall profess Islam. If ye obey, God will give you a glorious reward: But if ye turn back, as ye turned back heretofore, He will chastise you with a grievous chastisement

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 — 0.54 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.
