ILM's Quran text, translations, commentary and recitation audio are drawn from established third-party sources rather than generated by ILM. This page lists exactly where each piece of content comes from, and the terms under which we use it, so the provenance of what you read and hear is always clear.
The Arabic verse text uses the Uthmani mushaf script, and each verse's English transliteration and 41-language translations are sourced from the alquran.cloud data set, which aggregates individually attributed editions from established translators and publishers (for example Saheeh International for English, Muhiuddin Khan for Bengali, Fateh Muhammad Jalandhry for Urdu, and equivalent recognised editions for every other supported language).
The Tanzil Quran text project (tanzil.net, CC BY 3.0) is used as an independent cross-check of the Arabic text for accuracy.
Verse commentary is provided from At-Tafsir al-Muyassar (King Fahad Quran Complex) and Tafsir al-Jalalayn, two widely used classical Arabic-language commentaries.
Verse-by-verse recitation audio is provided by VerseByVerseQuran.com and mirrored via EveryAyah.com, for non-commercial educational and spiritual use. Their license requires a visible link back to their site wherever the audio is used, which is why the credit below and in the Quran reader links directly to them.
Translations and commentary convey an approximate meaning of the Arabic text and are not a substitute for study with a qualified scholar. If you notice a discrepancy in the text, translation, or audio, please contact us so we can review it.
