Translation of Quran is not Quran itself

While it is possible to translate the Arabic text of the Quran into other languages, Muslims generally consider translations to be interpretations and not the Quran itself. Since translation can change meanings and complexities that are found in the original and fails to transmit the aesthetic dimensions of the text, it is important to note that no one translation can claim to present the Quran exactly as found in Arabic.

It is important for our understanding of the Quran that this text was in its origins, primarily an oral/aural revelation that had to be experienced through the sense of hearing. Indeed even today the majority of the world’s Muslims encounter the Quran on a daily basis through the ear.
