In context
Quranic text · Tanzil Uthmani 1.1How translators rendered it
Translation · 5 editionsThese translations render verse 28:44 — 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 →
You were not on the Western Side when We decreed the command to Moses, nor were you among the witnessesAnd thou (Muhammad) wast not on the western side (of the Mount) when We expounded unto Moses the commandment, and thou wast not among those presentAnd thou wast not on the western slope of Sinai when we laid his charge on Moses, nor wast thou one of the witnessesThou wast not upon the western side when we decided for Moses, but afar off; nor wast thou of the witnessesand not you were by the side the western when We decreed to Musa the matter and not you were from the one witnessingsGenerated 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.
