How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 53:28 — 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 →

They have no knowledge of that. They only follow assumptions, and assumptions are no substitute for the truth
Translation · Talal Itani (2012)CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
And they have no knowledge thereof. They follow but a guess, and lo! a guess can never take the place of the truth
Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
But herein they have no knowledge: they follow a mere conceit; and mere conceit can never take the place of truth
Translation · John Medows Rodwell (1861)Public Domain
but they have no knowledge thereof; they do but follow suspicion, and, verily, suspicion shall not avail against the truth at all
Translation · Edward Henry Palmer (1880)Public Domain
and not for them in it from knowledge if they follow except the assumption and indeed the assumption not he avails from the truth thing

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.
