first my questions were sincere.. if u think i am looking to start a fight or soemthing its ur problem.. anyways getting back to the topic, if u say that just because the torah and the bible were translated into other languages, their meaning got lost and lots of problems crept up, then what abt ppl like al-qaeda and abu musab?? they read the quran in their own language, arabic and yet they deliberately misinterpreted it so that they cud kill all and sundry… we are not supposed to judge people but these guys blatantly kill anybody (even muslims) who they see as obstacles.. so ur argument is very weak.. even without a translation these guys created this mess.. so a translation is not going to make matters worse.. in fact it will help other muslims and non-muslims to counter these people with greater confidence.. otherwise non-arab muslims will continue to accept the views of any td&h arab on the quran as the ultimate
