Le décalogue #10
This tenth and final volume of Frank Giroud's epic series 'Le Décalogue' brings the sprawling historical saga to a close. Titled 'La Dernière Sourate' (The Last Sura), it follows the continuing search for the mysterious lost manuscript that has driven the narrative across centuries, tying together the fates of characters from different eras. Published by Glénat, this conclusion resolves the intricate web of stories woven throughout the series about a sacred text and its impact on history.
Le décalogue #10 (2003) explores a pivotal moment in Islamic history, as the empire forged by Arab conquests faces growing fractures due to rising doctrinal differences. Fearing the erosion of unity, Caliph Uthmän commissions trusted followers to collect and compile the Prophet Muhammad’s teachings into a single, authoritative version of the Qur’an. Written by Frank Giroud and illustrated by Franz, this issue presents a quiet yet profound meditation on faith, legacy, and the power of words—captured in a stark, evocative style that lingers long after the final page.

652. Les conquêtes arabes ont placé sous la même bannière des peuples aussi différents que les Egyptiens, les Perses, les Syriens, les Libanais ou les Afghans. Unique ciment de ce vaste ensemble : la religion. Une religion que le prophète mahomet a transmise essentiellement par la parole si bien que, vingt ans après sa mort, les divergences fleurissent et menacent la cohésion de l'empire tout autant que la crédibilité de l'islam. Pour parer à ce danger, Uthmän a donc chargé quelques fidèles de recenser les témoignages , puis de les consigner dans une version unique et définitive du coran.
