What's inside

Everything you need to read fiqh seriously.

Classical library

Foundational texts from the four madhāhib — Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i and Hanbali — presented in clean Arabic typography.

Translation & word-by-word

Read every passage in literal and readable English with token-level Arabic breakdown for deeper study.

Scholar commentary

The living tradition: notes from al-Ghazali, an-Nawawi, Ibn Qudamah and others alongside the source.

Structured learning tracks

Guided paths in Arabic, Qur'an and Fiqh with lessons, level quizzes, XP and badges as you progress.

Smart flashcards (SRS)

A spaced-repetition system that quietly schedules what you need to review — vocabulary, rulings, definitions.

Daily goals & streaks

Build a daily reading habit with goals, streaks, gentle notifications and a clear sense of momentum.

Study groups & cohorts

Read alongside friends or join a public cohort. Shared progress, private discussion, group leaderboards.

Ask a scholar

Submit questions to vetted scholars and mentors when a passage or ruling needs deeper context.

Notes & contributions

Keep private margin notes on any passage, and contribute edits that improve the text for everyone.
