Also, the study aims at probing how the three translators deal with some syntactic and semantic underlying problems and constrains in their renderings ofthe meanings of Surat Quraish into English. Four Ayahs of Surat Quraish were purposefully selected to address the research questions and categorized into semantic, and syntactic problems. The study shows that there are some syntactic, and semantic underlying problems in the translation of the meaning of Surat Quraish into English rendered by Abdel-Haleem, Khan and Mohammed Taj Al-Din Al-Hilai and Pickthall. Moreover, the types of the syntactic, and semantic underlying problems are lack of cohesion and coherence as well as the translation strategies employed by the three translators. The study also recommends that translators of the Holy Quran must adopt footnotes, paraphrase, modulation, transposition and transliteration, and other translation strategies to avoid a probable loss of the intended meaning of the Message. |\n| Article history\u003Cbr>Received: July 07, 2020\u003Cbr>Accepted: September 28, 2020\u003Cbr>Published: October 31, 2020\u003Cbr>Volume: 11 Issue: 5\u003Cbr>Advance access: October 2020 |  |\n| &RQÀLFWV RILQWHUHVW􀀝 1RQH )XQGLQJ􀀝 1RQH |  |\n| Key words:\u003Cbr>The Investigation,\u003Cbr>Linguistic Problems,\u003Cbr>Syntactic,\u003Cbr>Semantic Surah Quraish, Translation |  |\n\nINTRODUCTION  \nThe current paper is a syntactic and semantic study which aims at exploring the underlying linguistic problems in the translation of Surah Quraish into English as well as probing the syntactic and semantic constraints and challenges that the translators of the Holy Quran encounter in translating the Surah into the English language. Moreover, the study intends to probe the practicability of rendering Surah Quraish from Arabic into English language and has been actuated by the fact that there are Muslims who are English speaking and yet there is no Qur’an in the (QJOLVK ODQJXDJH􀀑 7KLV LV IXUWKHU TXDOL¿HG E\\ EHOLHIV WKDW the Holy Qur’an which was revealed in the Arabic language cannot be rendered into other languages but should rather be called interpretations of the Qur’an as is noted by Abdul-Raof (2005,p.162) who argues that for Muslim scholars, the Holy Qur’an is untranslatable since it is a linguistic miracle with transcendental meanings that cannot be appended fully by human capacity and potentiality (Abdul-Raof,2005)  \nOBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY  \nThe study aims at  \na. Analyzing the underlying linguistic problems, encountered by translators while rendering Surah Quraish into English  \nb.  robing the syntactic and semantic constraints that the translators encounter in rendering Surah Quraish into English.  \nc.  exploring the translation strategies adopted by Abdel-Haleem, Pickthall, Khan, and Hilali and Pickthall in translating Surah Quraish into English.  \nQuestions of the Study  \nTo meet the stated objectives, the following research questions were raised:  \n1. What are the underlying linguistic problems of the translation of Surah Quraish into English?  \n2. What are the syntactic and semantic constraints and challenges that the three, namely, Abdel-Haleem,  \nPublished by Australian International Academic Centre PTY.LTD.  \nCopyright (c) the author(s).
