هدف این تحقیق نیز بررسی انتقادی مهم ترین ترجمه های انگلیسی قران توسط مترجمان غیرمسلمان است، تا مشخص شود که آیا اشتباهات و تحریف های تهدیدآمیزی در این ترجمه ها وجود دارد یا خیر. سوال تحقیق :آیا در ترجمه های بدنام قران کریم که در این تحقیق مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است اشتباهات و بی دقتی وجود دارد یا خیر؟یافته های تحقیق :فرضیه تحقیق تایید شد و پاسخ سوال تحقیق مثبت بود؛ بدان معنا که در این پنج ترجمه تعداد قابل توجهی اشتباه و بی دقتی موجود است .اما حقیقت امر آن است که اکثر این اشتباهات سطحی و غیرعمدی به نظر می رسند و خطر جدی در تحریف معنی و مفهوم قران کریم ندارند

This research reflects on the link between power abuse, cognitive mind control and (translated) text from the perspective of critical discourse analysis. It reveals how mistranslated versions of the Qur an have contributed to the false representation of Islam and Muslims, the fact whose charge remains with the Western imperial powers. It proposes a new framework for the investigation of power through the means of translation, focusing on a corpus of five infamous translations of the Qur an. Approximately two hundred verses of each translation were critically analyzed, according to Farahzad's (2009) model, at microlevel whereas the macrolevel was very generally examined. The findings suggested that there are numerous mistakes and/ or errors in four of the translations which cannot be confidently judged to have risen due to bias and aiming at misinformation. However, the translation by Alexander Ross contained too many suspicious inaccuracies which might have been included in order to defame Islam..
