Abstract

Semantic considerations in the Translation of the Quran are partly related to the use of context clues to deal with the lexical items. In this regard, the Book is found amazingly stratified. Generally, understanding and translating the Quranic words strongly depends on the scrutiny of their contexts. Words with several meanings encoded in them usually impart only one meaning in a certain context. As some translated copies of the Quran show, mistakes have slipped through due to the ignoring of the position of words in sentences and the words that are collocated to them. Some translators, indeed, have rendered certain multi-meaning words the same way everywhere in the Book. The present research is conducted through a descriptive-analytical method to evaluate the contextual truth value of Haddad Adel’ s Translation of the Quran by a random selection of his renderings. As the results of the study show, considering the semantic principles of how to handle polysemous words in linguistic contexts, Haddad Adel has rendered many of such words appropriately although there are many incongruent cases as well in which the selected target language equivalents do not match the corresponding contexts in the original text.
