In context
Quranic text · Tanzil Uthmani 1.1How translators rendered it
Translation · 5 editionsThese translations render verse 18:81 — 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 →
So we wanted their Lord to replace him with someone better in purity, and closer to mercyAnd we intended that their Lord should change him for them for one better in purity and nearer to mercyAnd we desired that their Lord might give them in his place a child, better than he in virtue, and nearer to filial pietySo we desired that their Lord would give them in exchange a better one than him in purity, and nearer in filial affectionWe intended that he gives in exchange them two their Sustainer good from it purification and nearer in mercyGenerated 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. Every verse is rendered, but the whole remains under review: words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged in place. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
