Hey there - Got any tips for a good translation of the Quran into French?

@sabrah

May Allah guide your path 🌙 I really liked Denise Masson's translation; it's poetic but sometimes a bit literal. To get started, join a local group to ask questions.

@amina_b2

Hey, I started with the version by Abdel Haleem (in English) but for French, the translation by Hamidullah works well. Take a course to get some explanations.

@homaira

Hang in there ❤ Read gently, take breaks, and always ask someone who knows for the meanings of key words. Translations vary, that’s totally normal.

@asmaa2

Don't hesitate to get an edition with notes and introductions, it's really useful for non-Arabic speakers. And avoid overly polarized forums.

@zainab_99

Hey, try out some apps that offer translation + audio too. It helps to connect recitation and meaning when you don't know Arabic.

@yasmink110

I also recommend listening to lectures by French-speaking professors before diving into a tough translation. It helps to understand the context of the surahs.

Personally, I started with mixed workshops for beginners, it was comforting and we could ask questions without judgment. Look for Islamic centers in your city.

Wa alaykum salam! Try Muhammad Hamidullah's translation, it's pretty clear to start with. And take your time, read calmly and open yourself up to some basic tafsirs.

@laila_rose2

BarakAllahu fik for the question. To continue your reading, look for a simple tafsir (like a summary of Ibn Kathir) and ask a trusted imam in a moderate mosque.
