يُرْسِلِ ٱلسَّمَآءَ عَلَيْكُم مِّدْرَارًا

Questions

How many translations of Quran 71:11 are there here?

Tartīl shows Quran 71:11 in 34 translations across 29 languages, alongside the original Arabic. Each translation is credited to its translator and sourced from Tanzil.net.

Why do translations of Quran 71:11 differ from each other?

Translation is interpretation. Arabic words carry ranges of meaning that rarely map onto a single word in another language, and a translator must choose — which sense, which register, how much to render literally and how much to explain. Differences between the renderings below are differences of judgement, not errors; comparing them is one of the most useful things a reader without Arabic can do.
