I was hoping someone here could help. I am a long time sunni to shia revert.
I am kind of okay with reading arabic, but not that great. Although in my younger years I went to madrassah and read the Quran in Arabic, I realised my recitation over the years has become quite weak. I would love to go back and re learn to read Arabic again, but right now its not possible because of the lack of time and money.
However my weak Arabic has made me slightly not look forward to or even avoid reading altogether, which is obviously something I don't want.
In order to help me practice with my Arabic recitation I am after a transliterated version so I can kind of look back to check I am reciting it okay (by transliteration I mean Arabic written in English like Alhamdulillah, Bismillah etc)
I have seen a few online, but am not sure if there are any that are written by shia writers?
So the help I am asking is:
1) Can anyone recommend me any they know or have brought? If yes any links to purchase would be appreciated
2) Is there any publishers, writers, transliterators that I should avoid?
3) Please can anyone look at the two I have found online, and see if they are okay?, I am abit worried about the amazon one as someone wrote a review to say the transliteration was incorrect in some places.
The two that I found online:
https://www.simplyislam.com/Iteminfo.asp?item=53058 by Taqi ud Din Al Hilali Mohsin Khan there are a few others available on the webiste too
or
http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Holy-Quran-Transliteration-Translation/dp/8171512070/ref=pd_cp_14_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=1HPMX1975YRWWRZ76AFP There are a few different editions available here all by Abdullah Yusuf Ali
I am looking to buy one purely for its transliteration and not really too concerned on the translation.
Thank you for all your help in advance.
