''waduribat AAalayhimu aIththillatu'' literally meaning "'''and the humiliation was hit on him.'''" The humiliation is what was hit, not Moses himself.

''Fadarabna AAala athanihim'' literally meaning "'''we have hit over their ears,'''" which is a common expression in Arabic that means "'''we will make your ears hear nothing.'''" Just like "hit your feet" can mean "start walking." What was hit here was the ears, ''not'' the people themselves.

This verse mentions the verb ''darb'' twice. In the first occurrence, it says ''walyadribna bikhumurihinna AAala juyoobihinna'' literally meaning "'''and they should hit their veils over their bosoms'''," which also does not reflect that the word ''darb'' means "cover" as has been alleged. If it were, then it should be written as such: "and they should hit themselves with their veils over their bosoms."

Another two instances of "darb" here: ''yadribu Allahu alhaqqa waalbatila'' literally meaning "'''Allah hits the truth and the vanity'''," as in "Allahs explains the truth and the vanity."

'''Transliteration:''' ''Faqulna '''idriboohu bibaAAdiha''' kathalika yuhyee Allahu almawta wayureekum ayatihi laAAallakum taAAqiloona''}}
فَقُلْنَا ٱضْرِبُوهُ بِبَعْضِهَا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُحْىِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ وَيُرِيكُمْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

''idriboohu bibaAAdiha'' literally means "'''beat him with part of her.'''" The one to be beaten is the dead man [a whole human], which is the equivalent of the wife [a whole human] who is to be beaten as instructed in verse 4:34. The only possible meaning here for ''darab'' is "strike" or "beat." The mysterious translation of "separate from them" that was used instead of "beat" in 4:34 cannot be applied here, as the cow and the man were '''definitely not connected''' in any way to be "separated." On this occasion, the Islamic site also agrees with this understanding of the word ''darab''. This verse confirms for us, that when you are told to ''darab'' a man, it means to strike or beat them. Thus, it is logical to conclude that ''darab'' against a woman will also mean to "strike" or "beat" them, not "separate".

''faidriboo fawqa al-aAAnaqi waidriboo minhum kulla bananin'' literally meaning "'''hit over the necks and hit from them all their fingers.'''" The first "hit" means "beat" and the second means "cut-off." Both objects here are not whole bodies, but only parts (necks and fingers), and I don't think the "modern liberal Muslims" would like to use this either, since the first is the correct meaning they reject in verse 4:34, and the second ("cut off") is no softer than "beat."
