Holy Quran Museum in Makkah Displays Copy of First German Translation of Meanings of the Quran

 The Holy Quran Museum in the Hira Cultural District is displaying a rare copy of the first translation of the meanings of the Holy Quran into German, printed in 1623 CE (1032 AH) in the German city of Nuremberg, as part of its collection documenting the history of the Holy Quran and its translations throughout the ages.
 This copy is considered one of the most prominent historical testimonies to efforts to convey the meanings of the Holy Quran to other languages, contributing to a correct understanding of its contents among non-Arabic speakers, and reflecting the depth of early European interest in Quranic studies.
 The copy is part of the holdings of the King Fahd National Library, which is dedicated to preserving national and scientific heritage and making it available to researchers and those interested, enhancing the Kingdom's cultural and knowledge presence regionally and internationally.
 The display comes within the framework of the museum's mission to provide visitors with a rich experience by using the latest museum methods to showcase historical treasures related to the Holy Quran, highlighting its status as a source of guidance, knowledge, and human civilization.
