  It’ll help a lot, and you can def read it but to understand it properly you need to learn Quranic Arabic

  There are also translations in all major languages of course

    Yes, but Muslims are rather particular about translated versions not reeeeaaally counting.

      Counting for what? Translations are never going to be as good as the original, that applies to everything, not just the Quran

        Ah, it’s Muslim belief that the original Quran is sacred and a work of god, but a translation is made by humans, and is thus not the truly correct version and only an interpretation.

        Its not that you can’t read a version of text in another language, but it won’t be the sacred text.
