Mishary Rashid Alafasy, Mahmoud Khalil Al-Husary, Abdul Basit Abdus-Samad, Mohamed Siddiq Al-Minshawi, Abdurrahman As-Sudais and Maher Al-Muaiqly. The recordings belong to the reciters and their publishers; this site plays them from alquran.cloud and keeps no copy.
The word-by-word meanings in English and Urdu, and each word's transliteration, are from the Quran.com word-by-word data, also published in Tarteel's Quranic Universal Library. Quran data provided by Quran Foundation. A single gloss cannot carry all that a word holds.
The root and dictionary form of every word come from the Quranic Arabic Corpus by Kais Dukes, University of Leeds (corpus.quran.com, GNU General Public License), in the corrected Arabic-script edition maintained at quran-morphology.
“The constellations of the Quran.” The name is this site's own choice. The word buruj comes from the Quran: “By the heaven, holding mansions of the stars” (85:1, Pickthall).
Every count on the Explore pages is computed from the sources above. The English theme names, and the decision about which dictionary forms belong under each, are ours. A word can carry different senses in different ayahs.
The ayahs listed under each feeling were chosen by this site, on one rule: the ayah's own wording must name or address that feeling. Notes saying who is speaking or addressed are taken from the passage itself. It is not tafsir.
No commentary or hadith is shown on this site until a source can be used with permission and credited here.
