Qur’ān, hyperlinked dictionary, i‘rāb of each āyah, translations and tafāsīr, all in one place
“The best among you are those who learn the Qur’ān and teach it.”
“We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur’ān, in order that ye may learn wisdom.”
“Will they not, then, ponder over this Qur’ān? - or are there locks upon their hearts.”
Anyone can read here. The text, its translations and the tafāsīr sit side by side, and nothing asks you to know Arabic first.
But the site is built for someone more particular: the student who has learned some grammar and wants more. If you can dissect a sentence, or are learning to, everything is arranged so that the next question is one click away rather than one shelf away.
Hover a word and it shows you its root; click it and Lane’s dictionary, an improved, more accessible version, opens at that root. Ask for the i‘rāb of an āyah and the book opens at the page that parses it. Dictionary, grammar, translation and commentary in one place — so the work of gathering them is already done, and the reading and learning can carry on.
Lane is a work you read in columns, where a single root can run for pages and the sense you want is buried in an abbreviation. Here it is broken into one page per root: the entries separated, the senses numbered, the forms listed at the top so you can jump to one. The Arabic is Lane’s own, verbatim; the English is his, rewritten for readability. Each entry also opens with a one-line summary of its meaning, marked generated because that line is the tool’s and not Lane’s. For more details see the Reader’s Key.
Conjugation of the most commonly used verbs in the Qur’ān: fourteen pronouns (ضمير) against the past (ماض), the three muḍāriʿ (مضارع) moods — مرفوع، منصوب، مجزوم — the imperative (أمر) and the passive (مجهول). Available in both English and Urdu.
