A better pronunciation to learn better
We offer you on our website the possibility to read in phonetics as the answer to the needs of our brothers and sisters in the different situations they encounter and which we have found in rich exchanges with our users. Indeed, the phonetic Quran is the most widely used means by non-Arab-speaking believers to get used to the pronunciation of the Quran in the language of revelation. The goal of the English Quran is therefore to provide the necessary tools to facilitate the Muslim community’s access to a modern and functionally rich version of the Word of Allah to make its understanding and memorization easy. It should be remembered that phonetics, by its limits, should nevertheless serve exclusively as a first contact with the Quran for non-Arabic speakers and not as a permanent alternative. Thus, you will avoid the risk that its use will become established in the life of the believer as the only means of reading the Quran and you will not deprive yourself of a fine understanding of the meaning of one’s words.
More than being an obligation - which would cause it to feel like a burden over time more than anything else, especially when one does not grasp the essence of its content – reading the Quran is a process of improving our relationship with Allah, the Most High. Being consistent in reading the Book of Allah revealed to His Messenger, is a means of attaining His reward and succeeding in living a meaningful life by understanding what Allah wants from us, what He has prepared for us, how He guards this world and His Creation, and all the lessons that are drawn from it by reading it. Reading the Quran is therefore not a purpose in itself, but rather a path towards a greater purpose. It is the beginning of a spiritual discovery, while being an act of worship, a means of getting closer to Allah and obtaining His Satisfaction.
I only created the Jinn and men to worship Me. Surah 51 Verse 56
Quran-online encourages you greatly to learn to read Arabic. Let us not forget that the first concern of every Muslim should be making sure that his prayer is valid and in conformity with the Islamic recommendations related to it. In fact, one of the teachings we must follow in our prayer is directly related to the topic of phonetics. In deed, the recitation of surah al Fatiha, repeated at every prayer unit, must be made in Arabic.
What a beautiful source of motivation for you to learn Arabic!
The pronunciation of verses in Arabic with the help of phonetics is therefore a means of achieving one of the most important goals in our lives: Prayer.
Praying in the language of revelation, which is a crucial condition for the validation of your prayer, is therefore an initiative to bring you closer to the correct pronunciation of the verses of the Holy Quran. It is also an accepted way to avoid pronunciation errors that changes the meaning of Arabic words. Indeed, learning Arabic as quickly as possible serves to prevent the believer from inadvertently committing a sin during his reading. The Muslim can indeed insult his Lord without realizing it, just because of a mispronunciation.
Every little step that the believer takes increases his value in the eyes of the Almighty, the One who facilitates whom He wills and when He wills to advance on his right path. From small goals to small goals one walks towards a greater goal: to obtain the Satisfaction of Allah and His Paradise.
Once the language is well spoken, the interest in understanding the words read in Arabic will grow by itself in the believer and the will to enjoy a perfect understanding of the verses of the Quran will be felt. Of course, this search for understanding must also be provoked, valued and requested by the reader.
According to a prophetic tradition brought close by Muslim, Abu Dharr, may Allah accept him, reports that the Messenger of Allah said to him: Allah the Sublime says: He who comes with a blessing will be rewarded ten times and I multiply it even more, and he who commits a wrongdoing will be rewarded one wrongdoing and I also forgive him more. He who approaches Me by a span, I will approach him by a cubit, if he approaches Me by walking I will approach him by running, and he who will meet Me with the weight of the land of sins, without him associating anything with Me, I will meet him with as much forgiveness.
(Sahih Muslim)
Therefore, may all believers not lose sight of their primary goal: to feel on earth the satisfaction of their Creator by learning to read the Quran and to pray correctly, in order to meet Him on the Day of the Resurrection satisfied with us. Tell yourself that in just a few hours of effort, you will be able, using phonetics, to recite the verses of the Holy Quran correctly to at least validate your prayer, and obtain its rewards, by the Will of Allah. And He, Purity to Him, is capable of anything. Nothing makes His Power despair, nothing must make someone despair.

In this perspective of memorizing new surahs for your prayers, the partition of the Quran in Juz and Hizb is also available in phonetics: an effective combination of two functionalities for the novice learner.
