Welcome to Know Your Quran - A Unique Search Engine
Know Your Quran is a unique search engine and tool to help you better understand the Quran and its many
themes. Know Your Quran helps do this through:
- Comprehensive search of English words, surfacing the context surrounding the verse as well as
connected themes / narratives
- Over 500 pre-built queries that help bring a connected perspective throughout the entirety of the
Quran
- Further contextualization through the inclusion of relevant hadith, offering a holistic viewpoint and
understanding of specific verses and terms
Know Your Quran is different than other search tools because its 500 plus pre-built queries were handcrafted
after careful examination/review of the Quran and Hadith, surfacing themes that are impossible to search for in
a standard manner (e.g., Whom Allah loves, How to Receive Allah’s Mercy, etc.)
Know Your Quran was created solely out of love and deference to our Lord and Creator. As we are simply
human, we ask forgiveness for any mistakes that may be present in this database, despite thorough efforts to
review. If you have any corrections, please email us at
Admin@knowyourquran.com.
Search capabilities and key nuances
- Please note that the following translations were used for some specific words that is used throughout the Quran:
Zalemoon = Wrong Doers; Muttaqeen = God Conscious, God Fearing, Mujremeen = Criminal, Sinners; Fasad =
Corruption Spreader, Mischief Makers; Faseqeen = Troublemaker, Disobedient, Rebel, Wicked, Etc.
- The search provides an explanation and interpretation of each word used in the Quran. In many cases the
explanation includes the contents of the previous verse or the subsequent verse, as they are related to the
same subject.
- The Search provides capability of Inferring words, i.e., it will display verse 2:2 when you search for the word
“Quran” even though verse 2:2 does not have the word Quran. Similarly, it will infer and display words or
subjects that are directly not mentioned in the verse but are connected, and or related to words or subjects
discussed in the previous or later verses
- The database has been built, to the extent possible, to recognize synonymous words, or names, i.e., the Arabic
word “Ureed” is often translated into desire, intend, want, or wish, and the search will recognize it.
- While the search engine provides the capability of doing individual search on theme or subject, we have
included over 500 hundreds of curated searches
- Associated hadiths from the Sahih Sittah deemed Sahih or Hasan and related to the Quran topic is also
provided. Please remember that the hadith list is not comprehensive, and it only lists key hadiths. Please
consult Ulema for any questions.
