These were official translations. So the Imaan lead their sect with these translations.

Don’t forget, that is why there is infighting amongst the Islamic Sects also.

I thought that only the Arabic was considered the true text and that all translations were considered inaccurate. Am I mistaken in this?

Quite true, very similar to the often acrid disagreements between various Christian sects. /sarc

The violent nature of most of that infighting leads me to believe the more violent translations more than the peaceful ones.
