I'd like to know your opinion about the next fact.
Excuse me by advance to explain the meaning of words that I'll use.
I'll do it for those who doesn't know these words.
I will share with you a verse of koran. In Arabic a verse is called ʾāya (Arabic : آية) and the plural is ʾāyāt (Arabic : آيات).
The literal translation of this therm is sign.
In Arabic the Qur'an is named القرآن and this word means "recitation".
Each chapter of Quran is named sūra (Arabic : سورة) and the plural is sūrāt (Arabic : سورات) .
Now , I will quote the ayha n°14 in the 23th sūra on 114 named al-mūminīn (Arabic : المؤمنين) or the believers in English.
Arabic Version : مُضْغَةً فَخَلَقْنَا الْمُضْغَةَ عِظَامًا فَكَسَوْنَا الْعِظَامَ لَحْمًا ثُمَّ أَنْشَأْنَاهُ خَلْقًا آخَرَ فَتَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ
1.Translation by Maulana Muhammad Ali : Then We make the life-germ a clot, then We make the clot a lump of flesh, then We make (in) the lump of flesh bones, then We clothe the bones with flesh, then We cause it to grow into another creation. So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators.
2.Translation by progressive muslims organization : Then We created the seed into an embryo, then We created the embryo into a fetus, then We created the fetus into bone, then We covered the bone with flesh, then We brought forth a new creation. So glory be to God, the best of creators.
3.Translation by Abdullah Yusuf Ali : Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood; then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump; then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh; then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be Allah, the best to create!
We can see a lot of mistakes but my favourite is the next : In this ayha it's write that bones appear before flesh but this is false.

NOTES :
Translators are from different branches of Islam. It's better to share translations from people / groups who haven't the same Islamic domination in order to compare.
