The Quran

The aim with the present volume, The Quran: In Transcription, is to make the Quran available in a scientific transcription. The present transcription is not meant to replace the Arabic text in the Arabic script. The Arabic script as well as the Arabic orthography in themselves contain much valuable information for any scholar or reader. This book is rather to be seen as an aid for those who do not master the intricacies of the Arabic script, or those who need access to a scientific transcription.As with any transcription or reading, the present book represents the transcriber's own interpretation of the Arabic script, grammar and text of the Quran.
