Causes of errors in the Qur'anic translations (Within the framework of featured articles)

For those who do not speak Arabic in our country, the translations of the Quran are important in understanding the Quran. However, these works contain errors for various reasons. Examination of these reasons, consisting of both translation, translator and environmental factors is important in order to prepare a better translation for the readers by minimizing the errors in the translations. In addition, these errors are also found in the translations written by popular and specialist authors. For this reason, it is not enough just to list the causes of the errors. In this study, examples of these errors and the internal and external factors that prepared them were discussed. For this, first of all, the concepts that are important for the translations of the Quran have been examined, and the issues that reveal and affect these concepts are mentioned. The authors of the texts selected for the study and their translations were examined and the error examples selected from these works were evaluated. In the study, educational information of other translators who are interested in the field of translation are given in tabular lists and interpreted. Although the reasons for the errors in the translations of the Quran are mostly related to translation, some environmental factors have also indirectly affected the translations and caused errors in these works.
