Licences and attributions

Last updated 9 September 2026

Quraany is built on work done by other people. This page names them and the licence each contribution is used under. Where a licence asks for a credit, this page — and the app's own About screen — is where it is given.

1.The Qur'anic text and the printed pages

The app reads from the published pages of the Madinah mushaf, in two printings, together with the verse and word text of the Hafs 'an 'Aasim narration and the standard juz, hizb and rub divisions.

The text is installed with the app rather than fetched, so what you read cannot be altered in transit. If you find any discrepancy, please tell us through the contact page.

2.The study library

التفسير الميسر
Al-Tafsir al-Muyassar, verse by verse.
Saheeh International
The English translation of the meanings.
إعراب القرآن الكريم
Grammatical parsing, word by word.
معاني الكلمات
Word meanings.
تصريف كلمات القرآن
Morphology.
حصن المسلم
The arrangement of the 345 remembrances under 135 occasions.

3.The recitations

Thirteen complete recitations from ten reciters, all in the Hafs 'an 'Aasim narration: Abdul Basit Abdus-Samad, Abdurrahman As-Sudais, Abu Bakr Al-Shatri, Hani Ar-Rifai, Mahmoud Khalil Al-Husary, Mishary Rashid Al-Afasy, Mohamed Siddiq Al-Minshawi, Sa'ud Ash-Shuraym, Yasser Ad-Dossari and Khalifah Al-Tunaiji.

The recordings are streamed and cached from the Quran.com content network at your request, and each remains the work of its reciter and its publisher.

4.GeoNames — city and country data

Licence
Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0).
What it is used for
The offline gazetteer of 34,124 cities in 252 countries that lets you choose a place for prayer times and qibla without a network. Each city carries its own IANA time zone. The search is a query against a file on your device — no geocoding service is called, and nothing you type leaves the phone.

5.The speech recogniser

Recitation checking and voice search are both done by a Qur'anic acoustic model that is installed with the app and runs on your device. It is licensed to us on a no-profit basis, and that licence is why the app carries no purchase, subscription, paywall or advertising, and why its checking must always be presented as fallible rather than authoritative.

«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.

6.FFmpeg

Licence
GNU Lesser General Public License, version 3.0 (LGPL-3.0). It is linked dynamically.
What it is used for
Re-encoding downloaded recitation audio to a constant bit rate, which is what makes seeking to an individual word exact.
