Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article examines the verses of the Koran in "Divani lugat at-Turk". The suras and verses of the Qur'an are not fully presented in this book. It turned out that these are only excerpts from poetry. Passages from verses were used to explain the rules of the Turkic language. In the course of this research, it became clear that the author is deeply familiar with the teachings of the Qur'an. The author says that when reading the Qur'an aloud among the Turks, one must be very careful and pay attention to etiquette. He points out that some verses in Arabic are obscene words in Turkic and warns that Turks who do not know Arabic may accept these words directly. Passages from the verses of the Qur'an were taken from which sura and which verses were identified and numbered. The translation of the verses is given with the translation of the ancient Koran and translation into the modern Kazakh language.
