Lahmami, Abdulilah. "The importance of Tafsīr in Qur'ān translation." Thesis, Durham University, 2016. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/11727/.

Abstract:
The aim of this research is to show the importance of tafsīr as a context for the translation of the Qur'ān, in particular regarding the Muslim belief in Allāh and His Prophet. Translators of the Qur'ān are influenced by their own doctrines and interpretations. Fifteen translations of the Qur'ān from different religious and sectarian backgrounds have been selected for analysis in the present thesis. The translators use tafsīr (exegesis) and their opinions to translate the Qur'ān according to their beliefs. This thesis, therefore, fills a gap in Qur'ānic translation research. It focuses on the

The Qur’an has not yet been translated into isiXhosa and Xhosa-speaking Muslims who are unable to read and understand Arabic are facing a void in practising their faith. Xhosa-speaking Muslims also pray in a language that they do not understand and this robs them of close contact with the Almighty and as a result, the number of Muslims who speak isiXhosa does not increase.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the problems of discourse in translating the Qu'ran into English. More specifically, it focuses on the discovery and analysis of problems relating to the macro-textual level and occurring in both stages of the translation process i.e. source-text analysis and transfer. Source-text analysis problems encountered by the Qu'ran translator are extracted from the processing of the source-text. Transfer problems, on the other hand, are isolated via (a) the comparison of eight English translations with the original text; (b) the identification and analysis of 'shifts of transl

In treating the latter, approaches to ‘culture’ and ‘function’ in translation studies are adopted (see 5.2).

The belief that the Quran is the literal word of God (Allah) in Arabic is fundamental to every Muslim. It is also a frightening notion that haunts many Quran translators. It often drives them to translate the Quran literally, in a way, thinking that this is the best way to maintain faithfulness to the sacred text, despite the fact that they are aware that the translation itself is not sacred. As a result, many of the Quran translations are stained by this excessive literalness to a degree that they are quoted and effectively used against Islam and Muslims.

Abstract:
This thesis is a translation of a chapter that examines the role of Muslim women in politics during the early Islamic period and their engagement with religious and political discourses. This subject raises a combination of provocative challenges for Islamic discourse as Muslim women have had a complex relationship with their religious tradition dating back to the very inception of Islam. Despite Qur’ānic injunctions and Prophetic affirmations of the egalitarian status of Muslim women, social inequality and injustice directed at women remains a persistent problem in Muslim society.
