Official Product Description

Say any word of the Qur'an out loud — or type it in English letters (or Arabic) and find it: what it means, how it is built, the ayah it lives in, then hear it read back in Arabic. Everything is on your phone: no internet, no ads, no tracking, no permissions.

A humble request from the author: if this app helps you understand the Qur'an, please leave a rating. It is the work of one person, and ratings are what let other students find it.

FIND A WORD BY ITS SOUND
Press the microphone and say the word the way it is recited. The search does not look for exact letters: it reduces what you said to its sounds and ranks all 18,993 words of the Qur'an by how near they come. The article ٱل is optional, vowel marks never matter, and a near miss still finds the word. Under the best match you also see the words a listener could confuse it with — ح against ه, س against ص.

Your device's own speech recogniser does the listening; this app records nothing.

HEAR IT SPOKEN
Every Arabic word can be heard. Tap one anywhere — a particle, a rigid noun, a headword or pattern in the root tables, the word at the top of its page — and it is pronounced in full, ending and all, in your phone's own Arabic voice.

In a Qur'anic example, tap one word to hear it alone, or the meanings underneath to hear the whole passage read as one phrase.

Voice search answers in voice too: it says what it heard, repeats the word in Arabic, and tells you the similar-sounding words are on screen.

TYPE IT AS IT SOUNDS
No Arabic keyboard needed. Type hamd, layl, or dhul-qarnain and the word appears. A built-in letter guide shows how to write each Arabic letter in English, and letters that share a sound share a spelling — s finds both س and ص.

EVERY WORD, EXPLAINED
Each of the 18,993 distinct words carries:
• its meaning as the Qur'an actually uses it, from the word-by-word renderings
• the dictionary sense, when it adds something
• its grammar in plain words — "perfect verb, Form IV, 3rd person masculine plural"
• the particles and pronouns attached to it, each explained
• a Qur'anic example with the words around it and their meanings
• every place it occurs, with the surrounding words a tap away
• the other words built on the same root, one tap from its full tables

Compound names are one word: search dhul-qarnain and find ذِى ٱلْقَرْنَيْنِ whole, with its places.

ALL 86 PARTICLES
Every حرف the Qur'an uses, grouped as the grammarians group them — prepositions, conjunctions, particles of negation, condition, question, emphasis, answer and more — each with all the meanings it can carry. Pronouns, pointing words and question words are listed beside them.

WORDS THAT SOUND ALIKE
1,216 sets of Qur'anic words a listener could take for one another: same letters read with different vowels, and different letters that make nearly the same sound. Every set says which letters tell its members apart.

THE FULL ROOT TABLES
A complete صرف reference: all 941 verb roots, form by form (I to X), one table per form — perfect, imperfect, imperative, verbal nouns, participles and derived nouns, each marked Qur'anic or dictionary. Every occurrence is shown inside its ayah.

And the 188 rigid nouns — the Qur'an's nouns that come from no verb at all — each with the part of the ayah its meaning came from.

HOW IT WAS BUILT
Grammar and roots follow the Quranic Arabic Corpus morphology, the word-by-word renderings its translation data, and dictionary senses Wiktionary, checked against the Qur'an's own renderings. Every number is counted from the app's own data and can be checked on the About page.

WHAT THIS APP DOES NOT DO
It does not connect to the internet, shows no advertisements and collects nothing. It is the work of one person who wanted to look up the words he heard recited. Ten lookups are free; then one payment, Quran Words Pro, opens the app for good. No subscription.

If a word or a meaning looks wrong, email me: corrections are checked against the sources and shipped.
