Add to basketThis hardbound Quran (القرآن) is specifically designed to be a simple modern source in the standard Arabic script. It leverages extremely readable typography so that you can even learn Arabic as you read. It is written in a modern style using all punctuation, formatting, and diacritics. It is without anything else other than the bare essentials, so you can be immersed in the language and avoid assuming that the formatting of the text has always been a certain way.
Though no one knows for sure, many believe the word Quran derives from the verb ‘Qara’a- Yaqra’u (قَرَأَ یَقرَأِ) meaing "to read". Reading is mentally interpreting information, and so the Quran is an interpretable. Originally, around the 700's, Mohammed (مُحَمَّد) orally recited his insights to scribes who would write it on any material they could find, carefully reading it back to Mohammed to verify against mistakes it is said. Then only a decade or two after Mohammed's passing a few Caliphs (خَلِيْفَة) consciously organized the diverse writing fragments into a cohesive hole, so that it could be remembered.
Originally, too, the Quran was written in the Kufic script without diacritics or punctuation other than whitespace between words, invented shortly before around the 600's in Latin scripts. Before then words were not separated by space and it took skill and context to separate words from their surrounding. We've reconstructed a prototype of the early Kufic Quran in another book so you could really get a feel for what it was like in the beginning.
It was after a little while of using the Kufic script that the scribes figured out the diacritics system so that the Quran could be read by the public without the need for much memorization of the pronunciations of things. This was key in the goal of spreading Mohammed's word.
This text you're looking at is a modern reincarnation, taking advantage of modern typography to simplify the layout, referencing, and reading of the Quran.
