Introduction

The Quran, the word of God, is the light of heavens and the earth. The Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) emphasized the importance of studying the Quran, stating, "If one wishes to acquire the knowledge of the former generations and that of the latter ones, he should examine the Qur’an (and ponder on its meanings, interpretation, and recitation)." This profound statement underscores the significance of the Quran as a source of wisdom and guidance.

Preface

The Quran is not just a religious text but a wellspring of knowledge and a guide for all aspects of life. Since the early days of Islam, Muslims have strived to memorize its verses, understand its concepts, and internalize its messages. With the advent of the digital age, academic institutions have increasingly focused on digital Quranic activities and research. To align with these advancements, the Computer Research Center of Islamic Sciences, also known as Noor Center, has developed a range of Quranic software programs and applications, including the Noor al-Quran App.
