How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 2:78 — 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 →

And among them are uneducated who know the Scripture only through hearsay, and they only speculate

Among them are unlettered folk who know the Scripture not except from hearsay. They but guess

But there are illiterates among them who are unacquainted with the Book, but with lies only, and have but vague fancies
Translation · John Medows Rodwell (1861)Public Domain
And some of them there are, illiterate folk, that know not the Book, but only idle tales; for they do but fancy
Translation · Edward Henry Palmer (1880)Public Domain
and among them unlettereds not they know the writing except wishful notions and if they except they assume

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. 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.
