Recite & follow

Recite aloud: words light up as you reach them. In Hifz mode the text stays hidden and is revealed as you recite it correctly.

0 letters accepted · 0 illustrative ×10 · not started

Illustrative estimate only — not a guaranteed reward and not a verdict that the recitation was correct. Jami' at-Tirmidhi 2910, on sunnah.com, says a letter of the Book of Allah has a hasanah and a hasanah is tenfold; Alif, Lam and Mim are three letters. The grade line there is Hasan (Darussalam). In the same narration at-Tirmidhi calls it hasan sahih gharib. This multiplies letters the on-device aid accepted. Mistakes are not subtracted. Nothing here is a promise of what Allah records. needs scholar review

How the letters are counted

Counting convention: a letter is a base letter of the Uthmani word after removing vowel signs, shadda, sukun, tanwin and pause marks. Those signs are not extra letters. Ta marbuta is not folded into ha for this count. A word is counted once, when the on-device aid accepts the whole word. Uncertain words, errors, repeats and partial guesses are not added. Pause freezes the count. Resume does not count the same word again. Reset or a new session starts at zero. End shows this summary and stops adding.

Privacy: with the on-device engine, your voice never leaves this device — the model is downloaded from this site and runs in your browser. Nothing is recorded or stored.

This aid follows words. It is not a tajwid teacher and does not mark a letter inside a word unless the on-device model gives strong, stable evidence for that letter. A quiet mark means uncertain, not wrong. Learn tajwid with a qualified teacher.

۝١
O you who have believed, do not take My enemies and your enemies as allies, extending to them affection while they have disbelieved in what came to you of the truth, having driven out the Prophet and yourselves [only] because you believe in Allāh, your Lord. If you have come out for jihād [i.e., fighting or striving] in My cause and seeking means to My approval, [take them not as friends]. You confide to them affection [i.e., instruction], but I am most knowing of what you have concealed and what you have declared. And whoever does it among you has certainly strayed from the soundness of the way.

There has already been for you an excellent pattern in Abraham and those with him, when they said to their people, "Indeed, we are disassociated from you and from whatever you worship other than Allāh. We have denied you, and there has appeared between us and you animosity and hatred forever until you believe in Allāh alone" - except for the saying of Abraham to his father, "I will surely ask forgiveness for you, but I have not [power to do] for you anything against Allāh. Our Lord, upon You we have relied, and to You we have returned, and to You is the destination.

Allāh does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allāh loves those who act justly.

Allāh only forbids you from those who fight you because of religion and expel you from your homes and aid in your expulsion - [forbids] that you make allies of them. And whoever makes allies of them, then it is those who are the wrongdoers.

۝١٠
O you who have believed, when the believing women come to you as emigrants, examine [i.e., test] them. Allāh is most knowing as to their faith. And if you know them to be believers, then do not return them to the disbelievers; they are not lawful [wives] for them, nor are they lawful [husbands] for them. But give them [i.e., the disbelievers] what they have spent. And there is no blame upon you if you marry them when you have given them their due compensation [i.e., mahr]. And hold not to marriage bonds with disbelieving women, but ask for what you have spent and let them [i.e., the disbelievers] ask for what they have spent. That is the judgement of Allāh; He judges between you. And Allāh is Knowing and Wise.

And if you have lost any of your wives to the disbelievers and you subsequently obtain [something], then give those whose wives have gone the equivalent of what they had spent. And fear Allāh, in whom you are believers.

O Prophet, when the believing women come to you pledging to you that they will not associate anything with Allāh, nor will they steal, nor will they commit unlawful sexual intercourse, nor will they kill their children, nor will they bring forth a slander they have invented between their arms and legs, nor will they disobey you in what is right - then accept their pledge and ask forgiveness for them of Allāh. Indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.

O you who have believed, do not make allies of a people with whom Allāh has become angry. They have despaired of [reward in] the Hereafter just as the disbelievers have despaired of [meeting] the companions [i.e., inhabitants] of the graves.
