Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: There is a translation of the meanings of the Qur'an in English. They translated the meaning of this verse
They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christلَّقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:17]
. They said the meaning and translation is: "He who said that Allah is the Messiah has concealed the truth." Is this meaning and translation correct?

Answer:
No, it is not the Englishmen who translate the Qur'an. The Muslims, the people of faith, the people of correct Arabic, do not translate it. The English and Americans do not take charge of it, nor are they capable of it. Their translation is rejected. Yes.
