  • How many different versions are there of the Bible?

    While there are a number of versions to the Bible. There are 8 primary versions found in history:
    Septuagint - 250 A.D. Written in Greek
    Vulgate- 400 A.D. First version of the Bible which is canonized at the Council of Carthage in 400 A.D. Written in Latin
    Luther's German Bible- 1534 A.D.
    King James Version- 1611 A.D. This is the most widely used versions however it has large number of errors given that none of the writers had a decent understanding of Hebrew.
    Revised Standard Version- 1952 A.D. Literal translation into American English which used the earliest possible text
    New International Version- 1960's & 70's A.D.
    Hadrat Anas Radi ALLAH Taala Anhu reported that the Messenger of Allah Peace And Blessings Be Upon Him has said, “Everything has a heart, and the heart of the Qur’an is Yasin. Allah records anyone who recites Yasin as having recited the Qur’an ten times.”
    [Sunan Tirmidhi, Vol 2, Page 116 - Sunan Daarimi, Vol 2, Page 336]
