New in Version 2.0

The Learn tab in The Holy Quran, showing Topics, Mutashabihat, Themes and Similar Ayat

Learn is a new tab, built for studying rather than only reading. It gathers the Qur’an by subject, by passage and by phrase, so you can follow a theme across the whole book, or settle two verses that begin almost the same way.

Learn Premium

Topics

2,328 subjects, each gathering every ayah that speaks to it, wherever it falls in the mushaf.

Mutashabihat

813 repeated phrases across 2,232 ayat. Near identical openings and endings are where revision goes wrong, and reading them side by side is what settles which is which.

Themes

1,049 passages, every surah in reading order, so you can see what the page in front of you is about.

Similar Ayat

1,162 ayat that echo another, sometimes word for word.

The tab itself is open to everyone. You can look inside before deciding whether to buy it, and going to a page, a surah or a verse from Learn is always free. Reach any of it from the verse you are reading, or browse and filter by surah, juz and how often a phrase repeats.

Transliteration, Now Free

  • Transliteration for every word and for the whole ayah, no longer part of Premium
  • If you cannot yet read the Arabic script, you can still say the verse in front of you
  • The word by word view now shows the Arabic alongside the translation

Landscape, Rebuilt

  • Tafsir, the verse sheet, the word list and the recitation controls dock beside the page as a column rather than covering it, on iPhone as well as iPad
  • Home becomes two columns
  • The playback bar steps out of the way while nothing is playing, so the page keeps its full height

Also In This Release

  • A tafsir picker in Settings, so the commentary you prefer is the one you get
  • A way back to whatever list you followed a verse from
  • Verses you are memorising now have their own section in Bookmarks
  • Quicker to launch, and search answers faster
