Translations of the Quran Which translation of the Quran into English would you recommend?

Proof I prefer to give you proof that you trust like the Quran. I'm not yet well versed in the Quran. Give me time and I will be able to give you all the proof that you require. You don't trust the bible so why would you want me to waste your time? Peace

I answered esle where that I prefer the Koine Greek for the New Testament. I have a Hebrew of the Old Testament, but I prefer a New King James, although I do have several versions. Peace

The Bible and The Quran Not at all. It is clear that Mohammad did not believe that Jesus was the son of God. But it is also clear that when it comes to Jesus there are inconsistencies. For example, was Jesus crucified?

Scriptures I note that the scriptures were corrupted. When? Were both the Old Testament Jewish scriptures corrupted at the same time as the Gospels?

The Qura'an Thanks for your reply. We will speak again I hope. Peace

Correction: Jesus could read and write. It was very common for Jews of the first century to read and write. In the gospels accounts are give of him reading from the scrolls. I mainly read the New Testament in Koine Greek, but I prefer the New King James version for the balance, although I do...

Arabic Thank you and God bless you.

God has sons As a follower of Jesus and believer of the reliability of the bible I have authority to proclaim its contents. But on this site I have no problem with discussing things under the banner of the Quran, however, everything that I say seems to meet with some dispute. What type of...

Fabrication I had hoped that we could talk without reverting to gotchas. You are wrong in your assertion. Read it again for yourself. What I acknowledge is that a portion of Mark is disputed. Beginning in 16.9. But prior to that verse you have the angel announcing that "he is risen." In...

Proof That God was Jesus's father There are plenty of references in holy scripture that I receive called the bible. However I will defer to the Quran. 3:59 (Asad) Verily, in the sight of God, the nature of jesus is as the nature of Adam, whom He created out of dust and then said unto him...

Thanks for the clarification. I see in much of what Mohammad says he seeks to reform the faith that the Jews and Christians corrupted back to the true faith. My questions for any that will respond, What writings did Mohammad consider to be accurate and uncorrupted if any? As a scholar one would...

Not in the original I am familiar with that. But you originally bought it up. Peace

Follower of the Way You don't need to call me reverend. I am a seeker of truth and light. Thanks for the extra-Quran info. What you have seems to give more light on what Mohammad seems to be eluding to. I also like your mention of the staff of Moses. I recall that pharaoh's servants were...

Cover to cover I have read the bible cover to cover many times. And I am currently reading it cover to cover. I will read more of the Quran, in English, but I do have a problem. I cannot read Arabic and I do know that the translations are not equal to reading in the original language. It is...

Created from nothing Again, it was not and is not my intention to offend anyone. I am since in seeking more info on this subject. Are their more explict references to this than is found in the Quran? Adam was created from the dust and God breathed into him the breath of life. Jesus has a...

Misconception Thanks for the clarity. I am familiar with the first passage Qur'an 5:32, but not the last one. Peace

Proper context Thank you. I had read it before, but I read it again to make sure that I have it in its proper context. It is obviously speaking about Jews and Christians not walking in the revelations of the past. What I was looking for was a clear reference to rather or not these thing are...

Apes and Swines My purpose was not to ridicule your beliefs. Sorry if I offending you. But I hope that you understand that even some Muslims do not take it literally. Contrary to many of the commentators who take this reference to "apes and swine" in a literal sense, the famous tabi'i...

I am new on this forum but hope to be able to dialog with those who seek to worship God in sincerity and truth. I am a Christian minister and am hoping to establish contact with those who can help me to better understand some of the practices and beliefs of Islam. For example, I once heard a...
