Description: Translation of iltif?t is a major challenge for Qur’?n translators and has attracted the attention of translation researchers and linguists, alike. Iltif?t with its first- to third-person shifts in deictic reference is a remarkable style of the Holy Qur’?n and is used to serve various pragmatic functions, such as implicatures. The aim of this paper is to examine the translation of the implicatures of iltif?t from Arabic to English. To achieve this aim, the implicatures of iltif?t shifts from first- to the third-person reference were extracted from the source text, the chapter of the Qur’?n named s?rah al-Baqarah, with reference to a number of Qur’?nic exegeses. In addition, the study attempted to identify the strategies used in the translation of Y?suf Ali (2008) for iltif?t in s?rah al-Baqarah. The analysis revealed that there are a number of implicatures of iltif?t from first- to the third-person reference which can be found in exegeses. However, these implicatures are not represented in the text for the readers of Y?suf Ali’s translation. Translating implicatures from iltif?t requires intertextual cross checking from exegeses in order to attain the meanings of iltif?t that would otherwise be lost in translation.
