Wrong translation of last line in Ayah
Last line of Surah Ar Ra'd Ayat 13 reads: "And He is Mighty In Strength" But the translations reads: "and He is severe in assault." There is a significant difference in the choice of words used and for me it even changes the context of the Ayat. Imagine showing that to a non-muslim who may already have apprehension about Islam? I would definitely advise revising this

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah,, JazakAllahu Khairan for reaching out to us! You're right that "severe in assault" is not the strongest rendering for وَهُوَ شَدِيدُ الْمِحَال — other translations handle it more accurately. That said, Sahih International is a copyrighted work, and we don't have the right to modify it. Changing it without permission would be both a copyright violation and academically dishonest. What we can do: 1- Multiple English translations are available in the app — you're welcome to read from any of them. 2- Since fixing this requires the publisher's permission, we won't be making changes here, but we can at most inform them about it insha'Allah JazakAllahu Khayran for your care. 🌿
