Summary

This fatwa rules that producing a Quran translation without the Arabic text is prohibited. The prohibition is meant to protect the sanctity of the Quran and to avoid confusion about it. The fatwa names two consequences: the translation may be taken as God's word, preserved from deficiency and error, and people may stop reading the Arabic text because they read only the translation.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Penghasilan terjemahan al-Quran tanpa disertakan dengan teks al -Quran dalam bahasa Arab adalah dilarang bagi menjaga kesucian al -Quran dan untuk mengelakkan kekeliruan terhadap al-Quran.
