Qur’an vs Kitaab
Bismillah
The two most common names for the Book of Allah are: Qur’an and Kitaab.
We learn when studying the Qur’an that even the words chosen are a revelation from Allah with divine wisdom. So, in that case, what do these two names mean and what is the difference between them?
The word ‘Qur’an’ is said to be from two roots, one of them qaaf-ra-hamza, this root qara’a means to recite.
