In surah 2 ayat 180, the word "I," had been inserted after "...what is fair:"
JZAK to sister Karen Pradia English

2018/08/05 Corrected sequencing error in Yusuf Ali Original 

as-Shu`ara` 26:49 to 26:73
This was due to a difference in the verse-divison at ayah 49

Before
Said (Pharaoh): "Believe ye in Him before I give you permission? surely he is your leader, who has taught you sorcery! but soon shall ye know!
After
Said (Pharaoh): "Believe ye in Him before I give you permission? surely he is your leader, who has taught you sorcery! but soon shall ye know! Be sure I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will cause you all to die on the cross!"

This shifted all verses until ayah 73 which had the reverse problem

2018/02/03 Multiple changes, multiple renditions, and a policy change
 - in the past IslamAwakened has (mostly) included each translation/rendition of the verse of the Qur'an "AS-IS". We transcribed them exactly as they were made available to us, with only minor and obvious typographical corrections.

Today we have implement a change to that policy, based on feedback from various readers.

1. Numerous verses had " God's " rendered as " Gods ".  These have been corrected.

2. Other verses, which refer to pagan idols, used " Gods ".  These have been corrected to " gods ".
    The only verses this change was not applied to was those discussing the differences with Christians.
    It is our prayer that leaving these, and only these, as-is will help in future dawah efforts.

3. The partial upoad of Ahmed Halusi had some sequencing issues.  Now fixed.

One again we thank all those who support IslamAwakened with suggestions, problem reports, and (yes) donations.

Jazak Allahu Khayran
