What is the Latin translation of the Quran?
Lex Mahumet pseudoprophete (English: Law of Muhammad the pseudo-prophet/false prophet) is the translation of the Qur'an into Medieval Latin by Robert of Ketton ( c. 1110 – 1160 AD). It is the earliest translation of the Qur'an into a Western language.
Who translated Quran in Latin?
Robertus Ketenensis produced the first Latin translation of the Qurʻan in 1143. His version was entitled Lex Mahumet pseudoprophete ("The law of Mahomet the false prophet"). The translation was made at the behest of Peter the Venerable, abbot of Cluny, and currently exists in the Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal in Paris.
Can we read Quran in Roman English?
It's not that it's obligatory to read the Quran in Arabic alphabets, not at all. In fact, the Quran wasn't revealed as a physical book but as speech. So from that aspect it doesn't matter whether you use Arabic alphabets or English or Chinese or Bengali.
Is the Quran only in Arabic?
Any rulings and guidance from Quran are taken from the one and only Quran revealed in Arabic and not in another language. Other languages of the Quran are merely a man's interpretation of the general content within the Quran. Quran, in translation, is a man-made version of a divine revelation.
