The Albouraq phonetic Holy Qur’an in 17 x 24 cm offers the same three ways of reading in a larger size, with a black suede cover. It is easier to read. The 13 x 17 is easier to carry.
The large-print bilingual Albouraq Holy Qur’an offers an A4 format in large print, without phonetics. It suits readers who already read Arabic. The 13 x 17 does more to help you learn.
The pocket Albouraq Holy Qur’an combines the Arabic text and the French translation, in pocket size. It does not include the phonetics. To learn recitation, choose the phonetic edition.
