Description

This rare Armenian translation of the Quran, published in Varna, Bulgaria, in 1912 is the third translation of this Holy Book into Armenian, following the 1908 edition, made by Abraham Amirkhanyan and also published in Varna, and Levon Larents’s (1875–1915) Istanbul edition of 1911.

The author Hagop Kourbétian based his 1912 translation on the Amirkhanyan’s pioneering text and corrected it with a help of works by Arabic scholars.
