The Quranic Text & Ali’s version:


Asad’s Version:


12: 3 [ The Quran confirms that the Prophet did not know the events of other Prophets of the Past]

Asad [ see note 6: 42:52 ]

Asad In the measure that We reveal this Quran unto thee, [O Prophet] We explain it to thee in the best possible way, seeing that ere this thou wert indeed among those who are unware.


Yusuf Ali We do relate unto thee the most beautiful of stories in that We reveal to thee this (portion of the) Qur'an: before this thou too wast among those who knew it not.


Pickthall We narrate unto thee (Muhammad) the best of narratives in that We have inspired in thee this Quran, though aforetime thou wast of the heedless.


Yuksel We relate to you the best stories through what We have inspired to you in this Quran; and before it you were of those who were unaware.
