The usual name of this surah in French is La famille de 'Imrân. Please do a minimum amount of reasearch. It took me all of 30 seconds to find that out.

  • I see it written 'Îmran on Wikipedia. Have you seen it written differently somewhere else? – Stéphane Gimenez Oct 14 '14 at 8:21
  • fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sourate lists it as 'Imrân. I'm not fmailiar with Arabic, but the original name of the surah is consistently transliterated with a long a everywhere I look. I would rather ask on the 'Îmran talk page why the article uses that spelling. – Circeus Oct 14 '14 at 15:22
