The whole Qur'an, side by side. Just read — every letter is counted for you, ten rewards each, automatically.
Open the readerNew to reading Arabic? You do not need to know the language first — the Arabic text and an English translation are shown side by side below, so you can follow the meaning while you gradually get used to the letters and sounds (tajweed, the rules of correct pronunciation, is something you can build over time). A gentle place to start is Surah Al-Fatihah, the short opening chapter recited in every prayer, before moving on to the short surahs near the end of the Qur'an.

The Hassanat System
A ḥasanah is a unit of good recorded by Allah. The astonishing part is the exchange rate: good is multiplied, evil is not.
Every good deed
One act is recorded as at least ten rewards.
In the path of Allah
Charity can be multiplied to seven hundred — and beyond.
One letter of Qur'an
Reciting a single letter earns a ḥasanah, multiplied by ten.
An intention alone
Merely intending good is written as a full good deed.
Read, and watch the light gather
Common questions
Can I read the whole Quran online for free here?
Yes. AMAADOR ISLAM includes a complete Quran reader with all 114 surahs in Arabic alongside an English translation, free and with no login. You can read on any device, choose any surah, and pick up where you left off.
What are hasanat, and how are they counted?
Hasanat are good deeds recorded by Allah. The Prophet Muhammad taught that whoever recites a single letter of the Quran earns a reward, multiplied by ten. On this page, every Arabic letter you read is counted for you automatically as you scroll — showing your rewards for this session, today, and all-time, with a daily streak to encourage consistency.
Do I need to know Arabic to use the Quran reader?
No. The Arabic text and an English translation are shown side by side, so you can understand the meaning while you gradually become familiar with the Arabic. Reading the Arabic — even slowly — is what earns the letter-by-letter reward.
Where should a new Muslim start reading the Quran?
A gentle place to start is Surah Al-Fatihah, "The Opener" — the short first chapter you also recite in every prayer. From there many beginners read the short surahs near the end of the Quran, then build up at their own pace.
Is the translation accurate and trustworthy?
The reader pairs the Arabic with a widely used, faithful English translation so the meaning stays close to the original. As with any translation, it conveys the meaning rather than replacing the Arabic itself, which is why both are shown together.
