"the fact that it’s don’t makes it easy to recite."

[edit]

What is this phrase supposed to mean? -- 2003:C0:973F:5700:30A8:2517:FBDF:6533 (talk) 17:09, 17 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Why here? Why not "King Fu'ad Edition"

[edit]

I am astonished there there is no discussion about the lemma. Or did I miss it? There are about a thousand Cairo editions of the Quran (both Hafs and Warsh). E.Conidi calls it "Bulaq Press Quran", some call it wrongly "Amiri Edition" because they think it refers to Amir Fu'ad, but it refers to the Press, hence "Amiriyya Edition". Please move it back to "King Fu'ad Edition of the Qur'an". 2A02:8109:B6A2:5500:34D6:3696:7C5D:C3E9 (talk) 08:20, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Azhar vs. Ministry of Education

[edit]

I noticed that the English article attributes the development of the 1924 Cairo Edition of the Quran primarily to Al-Azhar. However, historical records and other Wikipedia versions, such as German and French, emphasize the pivotal role of Egypt's Ministry of Education and its directors in this process. Specifically, Nazif Hifni Bey, a key figure in the initiative, was primarily concerned with making the Quran accessible to graduates of state schools. These students were unfamiliar with traditional Quranic handwriting and required a "baseline-oriented" text for easier reading and comprehension. 2A02:8109:B6A2:5500:18E8:908:9F55:1845 (talk) 17:43, 15 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

A committee of leading professors from Al-Azhar University

[edit]

as source is given: Stefan Wild. Wild just all the King Fu'ad edition "Azhar sponsored", which is not correct. I was government (Ministry of Education) sponsored -- as shown in the imprint and the embossed stamp on the first page. There was not commitee at all. It was all done in 1924 by al-Ḥusainī al-Ḥaddād. The date given when four men signed the declaration is two week before the death of the director of the Arab language department of the ministry of education -- it is a fiction, a date after his death was inopportun. 2A02:8109:B6A2:5500:9483:1:4719:EC35 (talk) 06:45, 16 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
