Handmade Assorted Wooden Polished Rehal/Qur'an Stand For Reading Books (Multicolor, Rehal)

A rehal (Urdu: رِحال; Arabic: رَحْل; Turkish: rahle) or tawla (Arabic: طاولة), also called a "Qur'an stand" by English-speaking Muslims, is an X-shaped, foldable book rest or lectern used for placing holy books during recitation. It is designed to collapse into a flat form for portability and storage when not in use. This book rest, which is usually made of wood, is commonly used by Muslims, Hindus, and Sikhs. Used historically for many generations in South Asian and Arab countries, it is used both to hold and ensure respect for holy books (such as the Qur'an in Islam, Ramayana in Hinduism, and Japji Sahib in Sikhism) by keeping them elevated off the floor. The name "rehal" ultimately derives from the Arabic word rahl (رَحْل) meaning "camel saddle", referring to the resemblance of the unfolded lectern to a saddle
