## What is Medina?

Medina is a beautifully crafted Quran companion designed to bring you closer to the words of Allah — whether you're reading, listening, or building a daily habit. Everything is free, with no ads or subscriptions. Ever.

READ WITH CLARITY
Explore all 114 surahs and 6,236 verses in stunning Uthmanic script or simplified Arabic, paired with English translations. Adjust text size to your comfort and pick from 7 accent colors to make the app truly yours.

LISTEN TO WORLD-CLASS RECITERS
Choose from 5 renowned reciters — Mishari Rashid Al-Afasy, Yasser Al-Dosari, Saad Al-Ghamdi, Maher Al-Mu'aiqly, and Abdur-Rahman As-Sudais. Every word lights up as it's recited, helping you follow along effortlessly. Control playback speed, loop verses, and jump to any word with a tap.

TAKE IT OFFLINE
Download the entire Quran for any reciter and read or listen without an internet connection. Resume interrupted downloads anytime. Medina works just as well on a plane as it does at home.

NEVER MISS A PRAYER
Get accurate prayer times based on your location with a live countdown to the next salah. Enable notifications so you're always reminded. A home screen widget keeps prayer times visible at a glance — no need to open the app.

TRACK YOUR JOURNEY
Build a reading streak and watch your progress grow. See how much of the Quran you've explored through reading and listening combined. Mark where you've reached in any surah, and Medina remembers exactly where you left off.

MAKE IT PERSONAL
Bookmark your favorite verses and surahs. Write private notes on any ayah. Search across the Quran in 7 languages. Share verses with friends through a beautifully formatted link.

THOUGHTFUL DETAILS
- Personalize colors, reciters, and text size right from onboarding
- Swipe gestures for quick bookmarking and note-taking
- Background audio with lock screen controls
- Dark mode, light mode, or match your system
- Qibla compass to find the direction of prayer
- Privacy-first: your location is used only for prayer times and is never stored remotely

Medina was built with one goal: to make your daily connection with the Quran as simple and beautiful as possible. No clutter, no paywalls — just the Quran, done right.
