The 114 suras of the Koran presented in Arabic with their French version opposite. The Quran (Arabic: القرآن; al Qur'ān, "the recitation") is the holy book of Islam, the word of God. In Islam the Quran is considered inimitable in beauty and ideas.

It is also the first book to have been written in Arabic, a language which he helped to establish. The Koran gathers 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 the intention of all Humanity: Islam, unlike Christianity, has a universal vocation. The Koran is divided into one hundred and fourteen chapters called suras, classified more or less in descending order according to their length with the exception of the first sura called Al Fatiha (sometimes translated as "the prologue" or "the opening"). These suras are themselves composed of verses called âyât (plural of the Arabic âyah, “proof”, “sign”). The verses are in the canonical number of 6219.

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

This translation is that of the King Fahd complex in Medina renowned for its thoroughness and seriousness. Now it's up to you to read this fabulous book and meditate on its senses...
