The Holy Quran is the central sacred text of Islam and one of the most influential works in human history. Written in Arabic in the 7th century AD, Muslims recognize it as the authentic and unaltered word of Allah, as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through the messenger Jibril (Archangel Gabriel).

The revelation took place over a period of 23 years – from 609 AD, when Muhammad was 40 years old, until 632, the year of his passing. Since then, the Quran has maintained its position as a source of spiritual reflection and inspiration for millions of people worldwide, while also attracting the interest of scholars and readers eager to gain a deeper understanding of Islamic culture and philosophy.

This edition, created with great care and respect for the original, invites the reader to engage with a text that has shaped civilizations and to reflect on timeless questions of human existence. A luxurious hardcover edition that serves as a reference point.
