I wish you well on your journey!
Not exactly I have a copy of this bible translation given to me by the niece of the man who did the translation, they are immigrants from a part of what they still call Persia, now Iran. They are of course Christians, not Muslim.

Lamsa Bible is translated straight to English from Aramaic. I’d get that one if you want something accurate and easy to understand.
