Search the Quran
Search all 6,236 verses by a word or phrase you remember, in Arabic or in English translation — or type a reference like 2:255 to go straight there.
Search needs JavaScript, because the whole index runs in your browser rather than on a server. With JavaScript off, every surah is still fully readable — and your browser’s own Find (Ctrl+F) searches the complete text of any surah page, because all of its verses are in the HTML.
How this search works
Does it search Arabic or the translation?
Both — whichever your query is written in. Type Arabic letters and it searches the Arabic text of all 6,236 verses; type Latin letters and it searches the Pickthall English translation. Only the half you need is downloaded.
Do I need to type the diacritics?
No. Harakat, tatweel and the different forms of alef, ya and ta marbuta are all folded away before matching, so الرحمن finds ٱلرَّحْمَٰن. Text pasted straight out of a surah page is matched too, even though the mushaf spells some words differently from ordinary writing.
Can I search by verse number?
Yes. Type a reference like 2:255 or 2-255, in either Western or Arabic-Indic digits, and the verse is offered as the first result. References outside the Quran — a surah past 114, or a verse past the end of its surah — are treated as ordinary text instead.
Why are search results not indexed by Google?
A search results page has no content of its own — it is a view of pages that are already indexed individually. This page is marked noindex so that the 114 surah pages, which are the real content, are what search engines rank.
