How to interpret the Quran rightly


God has given principles for understanding the Quran correctly as intended by Him in the Quran. They are similar to the linguistic rules applied in understanding written or spoken text.

One, that the Quran should be understood with a pure and clean mind.

Two, to avoid the Satanic misguidance, one must keep following the instructions and facts of belief as told by God, such not paying any attention to the false and fabricated Hadith which have no witnesses for the narrators and are against the Quran.. One must depend on the meanings expressed by the words and their arrangement in the verses in the context with coherence and good organisation. The wrong and unsuitable translations do not show the use of the most suitable words with the same concept of the Arabic words. There is generally no logical relationship between the thoughts and the words used to clearly express the meanings of the verses. Research must be done to find suitable and fitting words in translation and a clearly exposed meaning of the verses.


Third, a good dictionary such as that of GA Parwez and Lanes Lexicon must be consulted for different meanings of the root words and their use in the Quran and the lives of the people at the times of revelations.

Fourth, Arabic grammar must be learnt. Being an expert of Arabic Language is better but not necessary. I have understood the Quran better with the above linguistic principles.. 


Fifth, the logical relationships of the words and thoughts must be understood in the context with coherence and organisation of the verses.


Read a Quran with word by word translation to know the meanings of the words which can be confirmed with a good dictionary.

These important principles were ignored by almost all thebtranslators in English and Urdu which I have read.

Go ahead and start reading the Quran with these principles correctly.


In the next post, I will translate Sura AlFatiha which in fact means the victory giving chapter to the believers for the establishment of Code of life given bybGid in the Quran and the Straight Path of God to walk on in life. They are instructions to say and do good deeds and not to say or do evil deeds as given in the Quran and in accordance with it.

If you agree with this translation please share it, translate it into any language you prefer to do, act upon all these instructions of God in your life after understanding, remembering, and acting upon them to get their increased rewards from God. God be with you all.

Moses, “ASAA” ( the stick), and “ white hands”: the true meanings

 God describes these events in 20:13 to 34. These verses are greatly misunderstood by many translators because they did not understand their metaphoric meanings but took them to mean literally. In 20:12,13 God says,”Indeed I am your Lord and Master.....And I have chosen you( O Moses). So listen to what is revealed to you.” Then from 20:17 to 34 God describes the events by saying,” And what is that in your right  hand,O Moses. He said,’ It is my staff. I leanupon it and I bring down the leaves for my sheep, and I have therein other uses. He said,” Throw it down, O Moses. So he threw it down and thereupon it was a snake  moving swiftly. He said,” Take it and do not fear. We will return it to its former condition. ( Metaphorically God is giving His instructions to Moses which will help him to do his work in life. But Moses found them dangerous because he thought people will be angry when they are informed about them. On which God says that he should not fear because it will ...

Understanding rightly the death of Jesus Christ and his return

 There is a lot of misunderstanding about the natural death of Jesus and being raised to God and return to the world because of the bad influence of false Hadith which are forbidden by God not to believe in after the Quran has been revealed, which the best Hadith. But the so called Muslims in name only disobey this important command about not believing in any other, Sunnat of anyone, Jurisdiction Sectarian beliefs and the personal beliefs of the religious leaders because God has authorised no one to give commands or follow any other than God Only. But the Satan has blinded all the Muslims who do not read the Quran with understanding it with the linguistic and the method of the Quran which their first and foremost duty. In 3:55, God clearly says, “ When Allah said, 0 Eesa ( Jesus) Indeed, I will give you natural death ( MUTAWAFFI KA= Your life on the earth will be completed. It’s root is WA FA YEE, to complete the life on the earth)( This word is wrongly translated as I will take yo...

Birth of Jesus: understanding it rightly

 Most of the Muslim scholars interpret wrongly the verses about the birth of Jesus Christ because of bad influence of Hadith which originates from Christian misbelief. Chapter 19 verses 16 to 22 need to be understood according to the linguistic and the Quranic method. They say,” And bring to the minds of the people in this Book ( of guidance from God) when Mary she went away from her family to a place in the east.Then she separated herself in seclusion from all others ( to worship God as per her vow). Then We sent  towards her a man with Our spirit in him  ROOH)  Then he was an example of man a well of proportioned  body ( An exemplary handsome man) for her ( she liked him as a man) ( BASHARAN SAWAYYA). She said,” Indeed, I seek refuse in the Kind who provides what is needed ( BIRREHMAN) from you if you are a man who saves himself from disobedience of God ( TAQIYYA). ( she feared that he may not propose her for marriage which did not want). He said,” I have been...
