  • Translation Loss in Translation of the Glorious Quran, with Special Reference to Verbal Similarity
    Translation Loss in Translation of the Glorious Quran, with Special Reference to Verbal Similarity Batoul Ahmed Omer Translation Loss in Translation of the Glorious Quran, with Special Reference to Verbal Similarity Batoul Ahmed Omer Abstract The process of translation is highly delicate and extremely difficult task to undertake when it deals with the translation of the Quran which, of course, transforms the Quran as the WORD of Allah into Arabic to the speech of a human being in another language. Translations of the Quran into all languages are indispensable to communicate the Divine message to Non-Arabic Muslims as well as Non-Muslims around the world. Nowadays, numerous translations are available for non-Arabic speakers. Many English translations have been widely criticized for their inability to capture the intended meaning of Quranic words and expressions. These translations proved the inimitability of the Qur'anic discourse that employs extensive and complex syntactical and rhetoric features and that linguistically the principle of absolute untranslatability applies to the Quran. Consequently, partial or complete grammatical and semantic losses are encountered in translation due to the lack of some of these features in English. These translation losses is particularly apparent in translation of verbal similarity in the Quranic verses, as an abundant phenomenon in the Quran, in the form of over-, under-, or mistranslation of a source text (ST). This study attempted to investigate these translation losses in the translation of the Holy Quran focusing on verbal similarity as an impressive way of expression and a rhetorical figure widely used in the Quran. Qualitative descriptive approach was adopted to analyze the data extracted from among the best known translations of the Quran, (Abdallah Yusuf Ali 1973) Translation of the Meaning of the Glorious Quran into English and Pickthall’s (1930) The Meaning of the Holy Quran and Arthur John Arberry (1905-1969) The Koran Interpreted.

  • The Importation of the Holy Quran Into English: Governing Factors in the Translating Process
    AWEJ. Special Issue on Translation No.3 May, 2014 Pp. 95 - 104 The Importation of the Holy Quran into English: Governing Factors in the Translating Process Abobaker Ali M. Alsaleh Brakhw Universiti Utara Malaysia Sharifah Fazliyaton Shaik Ismail Universiti Utara Malaysia Abstract The current paper reviews briefly the literature on the translation of Holy Quran and articulates several factors that influenced the process of translating it. These factors are linguistic, stylistic, and personal. The first two refer to the inimitable style of the Holy Quran and the figurative speech employed in its structure, while personal factors are related to the knowledge and ideology of the translator. This paper seeks to establish a theoretical understanding of the factors that governed and shaped the translations of the Holy Quran to open arenas for future investigation of its translations, specifically the English translations, and provide suggestions to overcome the limitations of the translations. Keywords: Factors, language, meaning, Quran, translation Arab World English Journal www.awej.org 95 ISSN: 2229-9327 AWEJ. Special Issue on Translation No.3 May, 2014 The Importation of the Holy Quran into English Brakhw & Ismail Introduction One of the most noticeable developments of Quranic exegesis in the Muslim world is the upsurge of the translations of the Holy Quran in the twentieth century. In fact, the Index Translationum (http://unesco.org/culture/xtrans/) statistics indicate that the Holy Quran has been translated into more than twenty languages, including major European languages, such as English, French, Germany, Italian, Spanish, Norwegian and Asian languages, for instance, Urdu, Malayalam, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, and Malay.

  • A Critical Review of English Translations of the Quran1 By: Ja’Far Razi Khan
    Academy for Learning Islam (A.L.I.) 1 English Translations of the Quran A Critical Review of English Translations of the Quran1 By: Ja’far Razi Khan Despite the historical fact that the early Muslim community’s stand on the translation of the Arabic text of the Quran was ambivalent, as indeed, the general Muslim attitude remains to this day, the act of the Muslim exegetical effort. However, whereas the idea of interpreting the Quran has not been so conventional, the emotional motives behind rendering the Quranic text into languages other than Arabic has always been looked upon with suspicion. This is obvious as the need for translating the Quran arose in those historic circumstances when a large number of non-Arabic speaking people had embraced Islam, and giving new linguistic orientations to the contents of the revelation-as, for instance, happened in the case of the ‘New Testament’-could have led to unforeseeable, and undesirable, developments within the body of the Islamic region itself. (For a brief, though highly useful, survey of the Muslim attitudes towards the permissibility of translating of the text of the revelation to non-Arabic tongues consult M. Ayoub, ‘Translation the Meaning’, in Afkar Inquiry, Vol. 3, No. 5{Ramadan 1406/May 1986}, pp. 349. The Muslim need for translating the Quran into English arose mainly out of the desire to combat the missionary effort. Following a long production of a-usual erroneous and confounding-European version of the Muslim scripture, Christian missionaries started their offensive against a politically humiliated Islam in the eighteenth century by advancing their own translations of the Quran.

  • The Cosmopolitan World of the Quran and Late Antique Humanism
    religions Article The Cosmopolitan World of the Quran and Late Antique Humanism Todd Lawson Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON M5S 1C1, Canada; [email protected] Abstract: The purpose of this essay is to demonstrate how two distinct but deeply related literary genres, which had become especially prominent in the 7th century Nile-to-Oxus region, have left an enduring impression on the form and contents of the Quran. By saying this, it is not intended to suggest that the Quran was “influenced” by this or that extraneous or extra-textual phenomenon. Rather, it is suggested that, along the lines of the Quran’s own theory of revelation, it speaks through Muh. ammad, “the language of his people” (Q14:4). Stated another away, the Quran employs themes and structures from both epic and apocalypse that would have been familiar to its audience in order to reveal and make clear its most cherished sacred truths, among which are: the Oneness of God, the Oneness of Religion and the Oneness of Humanity. Epic and apocalypse, then, emerge as features of the cultural and imaginative language of the intended audience of the Quran, just as Arabic is its “linguistic” language.

  • Investigating the Translation of Euphemism in the Quran From
    Investigating the Translation of Euphemism in the Quran from Arabic into English OSAMA ABDULRAHMAN ALQAHTANI A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2017 Abstract This study investigated the accuracy and quality across five different translations of the Quran from Arabic into English, focusing on euphemism. It evaluated the degree of faithfulness or deviation in meaning from the original and corroborated whether this is due to the translating approach or inadequate understanding of the meaning of Quranic text. It assessed the main features of euphemistic expressions in the Quran, how euphemistic expressions have been translated, and provided recommendations on how to improve the translation of euphemistic expressions in the Quran. Throughout its long history, translation and translation studies have never been free from conflicting views. Translation is one of the most researched topics and no other issue has preoccupied theorists and practitioners as much as the translation debate which has brought about a split of views, specifically into those who claim that translation is an art and those who believe that translation is a science. Each camp puts forward unrealistic expectations of what translation is and what it can achieve. Despite the boom in translation studies over the last decades which has provided interesting and fresh insights, it remains an area which has little theoretical base and very few research landmarks. Translation has rarely managed to rise above mere comparative analysis of language pairs, examining their cross linguistic and cultural differences. Translation approaches, procedures and techniques are not one size fits all.

  • A Content Analysis on Management and Terms Related with Management in the Quran
    Eurasian Journal of Business and Economics 2014, 7 (13), 157-172 A Content Analysis on Management and Terms related with Management in the Quran Kürşat ÖZDAŞLI *, Oğuzhan AYTAR ** Abstract Guidelines and principles feeding the system of belief have the power of diverting behaviors of an individual included in that system as well as being able to affect the management style of managers. Therefore, use of the term of management by basic sources of Islamic belief and which other sources it refers to along with the term of management will be helpful in understanding the holistic message given in terms of management in Islamic style, and approaching from a different aspect to the management literature. This study aims to reveal characteristics of management and related terms in basic Islamic sources, and with which words and in what aspects they are associated and used, and to see the perception of the religion of Islam on management. The content analysis conducted in this context included examination of the verses containing the terms of management, administration, leader, directing and steering.
