Terms of use

you are free to use parts of the Quran Android code in your application with some conditions:

  • your app must be respectful of the book of Allah. adding advertisements above and below each page of Quran is unacceptable, for example (yes, someone actually did that).

  • your app must provide some significant value over our app - otherwise, why not just contribute a patch instead?

  • your app cannot make money from ads or from sales. there are many reasons for this:

    • we made this app for the benefit of people and not to make a profit
    • the app costs us money (for serving the pages, translations, etc), not to mention the time to develop it and to support it.
    • not all of the data that we use is okay to be sold. the images, along with some of the translations are on a license that allows their use and distribution for free for non-profit uses, but does not allow users to make money from them.

  • if you write an application using any of the Quran data (the images, the translations, etc), you must provide a link to the respective data source page (tanzil.net for the translations and the quran images project for the images) both within your application (in an about page) and in your application description in the market or app store.

  • if you use part of (or all of) the quran android code or graphics, you must provide a link back to the quran android project in your application description and your application itself in an about section.
