Aslamu Alikum dear brothers and sisters,

I hope this finds you all in good health and iman. I am sorry I have been away all that time, but I did miss being amongst you. I would like to remind you of my research and project to evaluate a specific translation of the Holy Qur'an, one that is mainly intended for youngsters. As I have told you before, this research needs your cooperation to see for ourselves if the translation is any different from other translations.

So please, any memeber who is willing to take part in some questionnaires for the sake of the study, reply to this post. However, participants should meet he following conditiond:

1) Non- Arabic speaking muslim, or a second generation Arab
2) under the age of 18
3) non muslim youngsters are invited to take part as well.
4) One has to be depending on English translations of the Qur'an, even if one in the proces of learning Arabic

Jazakum Allah khayran katheeran

I will be waiting for your queries and replies

[- Qatada -]

If it's a translation, then aren't we supposed to know arabic in depth..? I look forward to the project though, insha'Allaah.

[Serene]

jazaka Allahu khayran brother,

The main purpose of the research is to judge the quality of the translation through the response of the participants. In other words, participants will not be responsible for comapring and contrasting the translation to the original Arabic text of the Holy Qur'an; instead, English speaking muslims will respond to the translation and maybe compare it to other translations they use.

Your help is really appreciated, you even made me think of adding a new part to the project.

[Serene]

Asslamu Alikum,

I hope this finds you all in good health and in iman. I am writing to ask for the help of all non-Arabic Speaking young muslim to help in one project of assessment to one of the English translations of the HOly Qur'an.

The research is based on the responses of English speaking young muslims, under the age of 19. I will be waiting for your replies so I can discuss with you the means of help needed.

Asslamu Alikum

[ameen]

as-salamu'alaikum,
