How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 22:42 — 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 →

But if they call thee liar, the people of Noah called him liar before them, as did 'Ad and Thamud
Translation · Edward Henry Palmer (1880)Public Domain
and if they call false then indeed he called false their before people Nuh and Aad and Thamud

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.
