I hope someone could produce a tafsir that actually does that – indicate “insert here” wherever this is implied. This would help us learn indirectly the language, while freeing the text to effect its original effect. the translator can put as a footnote his/her view of the best-supported interpretation (probably result in long footnotes, but i would have this tafsir as one in my library regardless).

i used to be sceptical of efforts for “contemporary language” translations of religious text, like the one someone did for the bible in the US some time back. but if the original language form was itself colloquial in its time, then it stands to reason that its most appropriate translation form is the form used by the people rather than the elite form (if the target language has this differentiation).

Assalaamu alaykum,

I believe Google (and a few other companies) have decently effective audio transcribing tools that could make your task easier.

In reply to Mohamed Adil Mohamed. It's easier to go back to an unfinished article than it is to an unfinished video, I feel. I guess it's a personal preference :)

You're one of my biggest inspirations Suhaib, keep up the informative lectures and may Allah grant you alfirdous al 3allah for all this amen
