Judeo-Christian (Biblical) referential sources as employed by the translator when creating a translation parallel text of the Qur’an. KU Leuven
The paper discusses the use of the biblical framework as an important factor to consider in the translation process of the Qur’an into Western languages. The aim is to investigate how a Qur’an translation that meets the requirements of a proper unbiased translation be achieved on the one hand, and be one that is not alienating to the Western reader on the other.
