Sabaq looper with word-by-word highlighting

Hear it right

A looper built for hifz.

Loop a range, slow it down, and follow each word as it's recited. Choose from a growing list of hifz reciters, all available offline.

Mutashabihat drill reciting similar ayahs of Ar-Rahman

Similar ayahs

Drill the ayahs that trip you up.

Mutashabihat, ayahs that look alike, are where huffaz slip. Saqal finds them in what you've memorized and drills them side by side.
