# Note on English Translations |
|
|
|
It is essential to emphasize that the English translations included in this dataset are not considered the Quran itself. The Quran, by definition, is only in Arabic. The translations serve as interpretations or renderings of the meanings of the Quranic text, designed to convey its message to those who do not understand Arabic. They provide valuable insights but cannot substitute for the original Arabic text, which holds a unique status in Islamic tradition as the literal word of God. |
