Reader comment on item: Obama's Pretend Counterterrorism Policy
in response to reader comment: "there is nothing new under the sun."
Submitted by slayhy (United Arab Emirates), Oct 27, 2011 at 10:06
Unfortunately, I don't find any translations by Native Arabic speaking person. Almost all are either Pakistani or Indian, One Englishman called Pickthall, but I find the Most accebtable translator is Muhammad Khan, He gives your the exact letter translation without changing the meaning of the words - yet he is not so accurate
The most famous but less likely good translator is Yousef Ali, - Ali does not always give the exact words, instead he tells you what they mean - which is wrong
I prefer Muhammad Khan -he is better in delivering the exact wording and meaning
