The Noble Quran (French and Arabic) - Small format

The Noble Quran and the French translation of its meanings (bilingual French/Arabic)

The Quran (Arabic: القرآن ʾal qurʾān, reading) is the sacred book of the Muslim religion. It is also the first book to be written in Arabic, a language that he helped to establish. The Quran brings together the divine words which were transmitted to the prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) fragmentarily by the archangel Gabriel (Jibril), orally during a period of twenty-three years. It is sometimes also called kitâb (book) or dhikr (reminder).

It is the uncreated word of God (Allah) addressed to all of Humanity: Islam, unlike Christianity, has a universal vocation. The Quran is divided into one hundred and fourteen chapters called surahs, classified more or less in descending order according to their length with the exception of the first surah called Al Fatiha (sometimes translated as "the prologue" or even "the opening") . These suras are themselves composed of verses called âyât (plural of Arabic âyah, “proof”, “sign”). The verses have a canonical number of 6219.

Understanding its content is certainly much easier for those who enjoy knowledge of the literary Arabic language, the language of revelation par excellence. As for those who are deprived of understanding this beautiful language, the language barrier constitutes a serious handicap preventing them from reaping immeasurable benefit. From there, there arises the imperative need to provide a sound translation, relating the meaning of the Quranic verses in foreign languages.

This translation is that of the King Fahd complex in Medina, renowned for its attention to detail and seriousness. It's now up to you to read this fabulous book and meditate on its meanings...
