The Effect of Content Schema on Use of Rhetorical Devices in Quranic Translation: A Comparative Study of Two Translators

Abstract

The Holy Quran is revealed in Arabic language, and it is recited in Arabic language as well. Allah Almighty gradually revealed the Quran to Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) through angel Gabriel over almost twenty-three years, beginning from 609 CE.Berkeley Center(n.d.) reports that approximately 20% of Muslims are the speakers of Arabic language. Most Muslims across the world depend upon translation to understand the Quran. Translations are written to understand the message of the Holy book in the simplest and easiest manner.
