QURAN 5: 32

[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[] 5. THE MEAL (al maaIiDah
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
With the name of Allah, the Magnanimous, the Merciful.

32. from that term We wrote for the sons of Israel:
 that he who slaughters a soul without a soul,
 or destroys in the earth,
 so it is like slaughtering mankind together;
 and who lets it live,
 so it is like letting mankind live together;
 and definitely Our messengers came to them
 with the evidence:
 then surely after that most from them are perverse
 in the earth.

I have been studying and translating the Qu'ran for more than ten years,
full time, while living on my frugal savings. 
If you are able to help me with a grant, scholarship, bursary, stipend,
teaching position, or lectureship, I would highly appreciate it. 
Besides preparing the final formatting of the Qu'ran for publication,
and the Quranic Arabic Made Easy arabic-english / english-arabic dictionary,
I will be posting weekly extracts from the Qu'ran
on linkedin, facebook and twitter.
