The approved pages of the Madinah mushaf, drawn exactly as they were printed and turned right-to-left the way a bound mushaf turns — opening into two facing leaves on a large screen. Close the app anywhere and it brings you back to where you were: that same leaf, and the verse you stopped at.
Two printings, both inside the app
Mushaf Al-Madinah 3, and Mushaf Al-Madinah 3 in the edition optimised for smartphones — so your place, your marks and your sittings stay one and the same across both.
The verses are drawn, not typeset text
The pages are photographed from the standard edition of the Madinah mushaf published by the King Fahd Glorious Qur'an Printing Complex in Madinah, with its surah bands, quarter rosettes and printed frames. Every word carries its own coordinates, which is what lets a recitation mark one word at a time.
Select a word, or a verse, by pressing it
A press marks the Qur'anic text and brings up the options for that word or verse — tafsir, set a bookmark, play the recitation, add a note, and share as text or as an image.
A bar that says where you are, four ways at once
Surah, page, juz and hizb — down to which quarter of the hizb, with a rosette that says how far through it you are.
A ruler, not a list
The page picker is a ruler you flick across, so one gesture crosses the whole mushaf. The juz boundaries stand as the tall notches, which is what makes a particular page quick to reach.
Search that forgives spelling
In the surah picker, «الفاتحه» finds «الفاتحة», and «١٨» and «18» both find الكهف.
Keyboard on the desktop
Arrow keys turn the leaves.
«راجع تلاوتي»
Recite, and be heard
Press it and read the open page aloud, and the words are marked as you read them: right, near, wrong. The tally runs along the top bar, and when you reach the foot of the page the leaf turns itself, so a sitting runs across as many pages as you like — using an AI model installed inside the app that works with no internet.
It tells you what it heard
Press any marked word and it answers in sentences rather than error codes: which haraka came out wrong, which letter went missing, whether the madd ran short, a shadda dropped, a ghunna or ikhfa' left out. You can listen to that single word on its own, recited correctly.
Three levels of strictness
«مُيسّر» overlooks shadda, madd lengths, qalqala and ghunna; «مُشدّد» takes all seven; and in «مُخصَّص» you choose rule by rule.
Seven rules it checks
Letters, vowels, whether a madd is present, shadda, the length of a madd in counts, qalqala, and ghunna and ikhfa'.
«قد أخطئ في التصحيح، ولا أُغني عن شيخ يسمع منك»
I can get the checking wrong, and I am no substitute for a teacher who listens to you.
The app says this about itself, plainly, on screen. Nothing here replaces reciting to a teacher.
«جلساتي»
Keep every sitting
Every sitting is checked and recorded, so you can open an old one and listen back to your own voice with the words you recited marked on the page.
What each sitting shows
The verse it opened on, how long it ran, and its tally.
The recordings play from your device
They are never shared off your device, and a sitting goes only when you delete it.
«ابحث بصوتي»
Find a verse by reciting it
Read part of any verse — a few words is enough — and it goes straight there. This too happens entirely on the device.
Thirteen complete recitations from ten reciters
Every one of them Hafs 'an 'Aasim: murattal, mujawwad, mu'allim, and one recorded for children to repeat after. Press a word and start the recitation from that word rather than the top of the surah, and the audio stays in step with the word being marked; the leaf turns itself when the voice crosses onto the next page, and tapping any word sends the audio there. The page itself is the scrub bar.
Control the recitation speed
Slow, normal, or fast.
Repeat verses
Any verse can repeat from once to ten times.
«وقت الترديد»
After each verse the player holds a silence exactly as long as the verse just recited, for you to say it back.
It plays on with the phone locked
With the full controls on the notification screen.
Download the audio
Download a particular surah, or a batch of surahs at once, and play them from your own device with no internet.
Study any word, or any verse
Press and hold a word and a sheet rises: the verse set word by word in the mushaf's own hand, with a «الكلمة / الآية» switch between the single word and the whole verse. The arrows walk the mushaf from there — one word or one verse at a time, straight across surah boundaries — and the page underneath keeps up, so you never lose the place you walked to.

Your own marks
Two bookmarks — «القراءة» for reading and «الحفظ» for memorising — each a single place that simply moves when you set it again, drawn as a coloured pennant on the page itself. When both rest on one verse, it wears both colours.
«الخواطر» — notes
Write a note on a verse, or on one single word of it. Notes are marked on the page where they were written, and the list is searchable by what you wrote, by surah, or by number, with Arabic matching that forgives spelling.
Bookmark reminders
Pick an hour and any set of weekdays, and the phone reminds you where you left off — whether the app has been opened since or not.
«الختمات»
Let the app set your daily portion, to your own brief
Name the khatma, choose its span — from where to where, by juz or by page — and the size of the daily portion in juz, hizb, rub or pages. The app cuts the span into a dated sitting for each day and puts a progress card on the dashboard.
It keeps up with you
Finish early or late and the remaining sittings are re-dated from today.
A reminder at your hour
«وردك اليوم» — today's portion, at the time you choose.
«الأذكار»
345 remembrances, under 135 occasions
Filed the way «حصن المسلم» files them, and in its own reading order: waking, dressing, the mosque, each part of the prayer, sleep, travel, rain, illness, الرقية الشرعية. Each occasion carries its own mark, so a list of a hundred and thirty-five can be scanned rather than read, and the search forgives spelling and knows the words that are not in the heading: «الحمام» finds «دعاء دخول الخلاء».
Counted under your thumb
Open one and it fills the screen, one zikr at a time. Touch anywhere to advance — once per time it is to be said — so a zikr asking for a hundred is counted with your eyes on the words rather than on a button.
«إحصائيات»
Reads are recorded as you say them: how far through each occasion you are today, how many days in a row you have kept, and which أذكار you come back to.
Prayer times, qibla and the Hijri year
Six times a day — Fajr, sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha — worked out on the device from your place. The next prayer shows with a countdown, a ribbon shows the shape of the whole day, and the six times are there to read off. The night times too: the middle of the night, and the last third.
Your place, offline
Use your location, or search the cities of the world by city or country name in Arabic or English — each carrying its own time zone, so choosing one moves the clock with it.
23 calculation methods
Umm al-Qura, the Muslim World League, Egyptian, Karachi, ISNA, Diyanet, the Moonsighting Committee and others, matched automatically to the country of your place, with the app saying so plainly. Madhab for Asr, an adjustment in minutes for each prayer to agree with your masjid, and rules for high latitudes and the polar circle.
Adhan, in a voice you choose
Enable the alert for each prayer, choose how long before the adhan to be reminded, and pick from twelve adhan recordings.
Qibla
A live compass to the Kaaba that says turn right or turn left, with the bearing from true north corrected for magnetic declination, and the distance in kilometres.
«المناسبات»
A whole Hijri year laid down the screen with where you are in it now, twelve occasions from Ashura to the day of Arafah, the white days of every month, and a countdown to each.
Widgets, the Mac menu bar, and getting started
The app reaches past its own window where that is useful, and stays out of the way where it is not.
Home screen widgets
Prayer times — the day's six times, the Hijri date, your place and a live countdown — and the next occasions in the Islamic calendar. Drawn natively on Android and iPhone, following your lighting and your language.
The Mac menu bar
A live countdown to the next prayer stands in the menu bar, and pressing it drops a panel with the day's times, what has passed and what is next. It can open at startup and wait there, so the adhan and the reminders keep their times.
Share verses
As an image — the verses on a card, in the mushaf's own script — or as text, pasteable and searchable, with a slider to pick the from-verse and the to-verse.
The mushaf tour
An eight-step start that asks your language, then your lighting, paper mode, reciter, and how strict the recitation checking should be.
«الوضع الورقي» — paper mode
A cut paper surface instead of glass, in either lighting: quiet grey ink and no colour, easier over a long sitting.
