About
A multilingual home for the Quran, Hadith, and Islamic books.
Siyahi Shanasi brings together Quranic ayat, hadith, and passages from Islamic books in Arabic, Urdu, Roman Urdu, and English — searchable side by side, and organized by topic and level so readers can find what they're looking for quickly.

Our principles
Scholarship made clearer, without losing reverence
What we offer
Search across languages and sources
Every ayat, hadith, and passage in this library can be searched and read in up to four languages at once, so nothing is lost between the original text and its translation.
Our approach
Organized by topic and level
Content is tagged by topic and reading level, so a new student and a seasoned researcher can both filter down to material suited to them, rather than searching text alone.
