Duro atë që thonë ata dhe largohu nga ata në mënyrë të hijshme!
আর (মিথ্যারোপকারী) লোকেরা (কটূক্তি ও গালমন্দ) যা-ই বলে, তাতে তুমি ধৈর্যধারণ করো এবং সৌজন্য সহকারে তাদেরকে পরিহার করে চলো।
I otrpi ono što oni govore i izbjegavaj ih na lijep način,
I otrpi ono što oni govore i izbjegavaj ih na lijep način,
Muñño e ko ɓe wowlata kon; ngoɗɗito-raa ɓe woɗɗitannde labaande.
და მოითმინე, რასაც ისინი (ურწმუნოები) ამბობენ, და გაეცალე მათ მშვენიერი გაცლით.
Und ertrage geduldig, was sie sagen, und meide sie auf schöne Weise.
Και να είσαι υπομονετικός (ω, Μωχάμμαντ) με ό,τι λένε (οι άπιστοι), και να απομακρύνεσαι απ’ αυτούς με καλό τρόπο (χωρίς να τους εκδικηθείς).
और जो कुछ वे कह रहे हैं[2], उसपर धैर्य से काम लें और उन्हें अच्छे ढंग से छोड़ दें।
E sopporta ciò che dicono e allontanati da loro con delicatezza,
10. Ir būk kantrus (o Muchammedai ﷺ ) dėl to, ką jie sako, ir venk jų gailestingu vengimu.
Waan isaan (kuffaarri) jedhan irratti obsi; fageenya gaarii isaan irraa fagaadhu.
И будь терпелив к тому, что они говорят, и достойно отстранись от них.
И издржи оно што они говоре и избегавај их на леп начин,
Na vumilia hayo wayasemayo, na jitenge nao kwa vizuri.
Ha tålamod med deras ord och dra dig ifrån dem på ett fint och värdigt sätt.
Onların söylediklerine katlan ve onlardan güzel bir şekilde ayrıl.
اور جو کچھ وه کہیں تو سہتا ره اور وضعداری کے ساتھ ان سے الگ تھلگ 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.

So remember the Name of your Lord, and devote yourself to Him wholeheartedly.
So remember the name of thy Lord and devote thyself with a complete devotion

And commemorate the name of thy Lord, and devote thyself to Him with entire devotion
And commemorate the name of thy Lord: And separate thy self unto Him, renouncing worldly vanities

Lord of the East and the West. There is no god but He, so take Him as a Trustee.
Lord of the East and the West; there is no Allah save Him; so choose thou Him alone for thy defender

Lord of the East and of the West! No God is there but He! Take Him for thy protector
He is the Lord of the east, and of the west; there is no God but He. Wherefore take Him for thy patron

The translators word this verse differently
And leave Me to those who deny the truth, those of luxury, and give them a brief respite.
Leave Me to deal with the deniers, lords of ease and comfort (in this life); and do thou respite them awhile
And leave me and those who say it is a lie, who are possessed of comfort; and let them bide for a while
And let Me alone with the gainsayers, rich in the pleasures of this life; and bear thou with them yet a little while
And let Me alone with those who charge the Koran with falsehood, who enjoy the blessings of this life; and bear with them for a while

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 — 0.64 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.
