So far a great number of Persian translations of the Holy Quran have appeared; none of these translations has been flawless. One such translation was the one produced in India by a renowned scholar named Shah Vali Allah Muhaddeth Dehlavi that was produced around two centuries and a half ago. Despite its beauties, this translation suffers from a number of defects, especially the literary ones. Some of the most important literary flaws highlighted in the present paper are as follows: inconsistency in rendering lexical items, incorrect and inappropriate translation of certain words and verses, lack of parallelism in certain translated items against the rules of Arabic morphology and syntax, incorporation of certain doctrinal leanings in the translation, merging translation with exegesis and interpretation, drawing on Israelite accounts and adding a number of unnecessary and inappropriate notes, and finally incorrect Persian spellings and inappropriate Persian syntax of words. In this paper, the above-mentioned flaws are divided into literary and non-literary errors and flaws; granted that some of them might have occurred inadvertently, there are certainly a number of such mistranslations that have crept into this work on purpose.
