Dhimmi No More,

So good to read part 2. Before you posted it, I had already checked out Mr Khattab's translation and note as I mentioned to you, and was looking forward to reading your input.

You wrote this:

Yes, no references at all! I was looking for them, but nothing. His affirmation about the dialects intrigued me but couldn't find anything. And the most concerning point of your analysis:

What a mess...

We are learning thanks to you that his very Clear Qur'an is the translation that we should never consult if we want to have the most accurate idea of what on earth the quoranic verses really mean. At least, we will have a bit clearer translations! The lack of references always weakens a book.

I already read your post about the ostrich and her egg! Brilliant!

Thanks a lot for the very detailed e xplanation about this verse. Looking forward for more!
