Reciting

The Quran (English pronunciation: /kɔrˈɑːn/^{[n 1]} kor-AHN ; Arabic: القرآن‎ al-qurʾān, IPA: [qurˈʔaːn],^{[n 2]} literally meaning "the recitation", Persian: [ɢoɾˈʔɒːn]), also transliterated Qur'an or Koran, is the central religious text of Islam, which Muslims believe to be the verbatim word of God (Arabic: الله‎, Allah). It is regarded widely as the finest piece of literature in the Arabic language.
