In Taiwan, it is only in the last few years that there have been vernacular Chinese translations available. Most of these were done by Muslims in mainland China. When Shen was beginning his translation more than 10 years ago, the most widespread Qur'an on the market was Huakang Publishing Company's Mandarin Qur'an. But that was not very widely circulated.
在台灣，古蘭經的白話中文譯本是這幾年間才有的，大部份是大陸教門人士所譯，十多年前在沈遐淮譯經時，坊間通行的是華岡出版的時子周《國語古蘭經》譯本，但也並不普及。
