How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 16:56 — the whole verse this word appears in — not this word alone. The correspondence is verse-level: no word-level alignment of translations exists for these editions, so we do not claim which English word renders this Arabic word. Compare the editions →

Generated from a table of word-by-word decisions, not written as prose. Arabic word order is preserved, so it reads stiffly and is not a substitute for a translation written by a person. It is under review and incomplete: only verses whose every word has been decided appear at all. Words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
