Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The complete Quran — all 114 surahs, in Arabic with English translation and audio recitation — is free for every visitor, with no account, no paywall, and no locked chapters. It was built as a sadaqah jariyah, a continuous charity meant to keep giving benefit long after it was made, and it will stay that way.

No sign-up, no email, no password. Open the site and start reading right away. Your bookmarks and preferences are saved privately in your own browser, never on a server.

Yes. simplequran.net is a Progressive Web App — add it to your home screen on Android or iOS and it opens like a native app, with previously read surahs available offline.

Yes. Look up prayer times by city or by sharing your location, and use the built-in Qibla compass to find the direction of the Kaaba from wherever you are.

No. simplequran.net has no ads, for anyone. Premium subscribers and donors make this possible. When you support us, the entire community benefits — including the millions who can't afford to give. Reading the Quran should feel like an act of worship, not like browsing a cluttered website.

The reading experience is free forever — but keeping it online, accurate, and ad-free costs something behind the scenes. Donations from those who are able to give are what let it remain open to those who cannot. For the donor, it's a quiet, ongoing amal jariyah; for the whole Ummah, it's a shared trust.

Donations cover hosting and upkeep, fund features like prayer times, Qibla, and offline reading, and keep the entire site free of advertising for every visitor. Every contribution, however small, helps sustain access for someone whose only way to reach the Quran may be through this app.

Sabr — patient perseverance — is one of the Quran's most repeated themes, and it shapes how this project is built too. Growing a free resource for the Ummah takes time, small steady improvements, and trust that the effort is not wasted. Allah reminds us that He is with those who are patient (2:153), and that "the patient will be given their reward without measure" (39:10). Every line of code and every donation here is an act of Sabr, sustained quietly, for the sake of others.

Read, share it with your family, your masjid, or your study circle, and donate what you're able to so it can stay free and ad-free for everyone. A resource built for the whole Ummah grows through the whole Ummah — your part may be small, but so is a single drop, and oceans are made of them.

No. simplequran.net doesn't require personal information, doesn't run tracking ads, and stores bookmarks and preferences only in your own browser. See the Privacy Policy for full details.
