Quran-safe narration
Many Urdu, Arabic and English books quote the Quran. A machine voice should not recite the Word of Allah, so Audify keeps those verses out of the audio while keeping them on the page.
What happens to a verse
- On the page and in the video: the verse is shown in full, in Naskh script, in its own colour.
- In the audio: the narration pauses respectfully where the verse is, then continues with the next sentence. The verse is never sent to any voice engine.
- In your bill: verses are not voiced, so they cost nothing.
How verses are found
- Any book: text inside the ornate brackets ﴿ ﴾, together with an ayah number written right after it.
- Urdu, English and other non-Arabic books: also any run of three or more fully vowelled Arabic words, which is how Quranic quotations are usually printed inside such books.
- Arabic books: ordinary Arabic is often vowelled too, so in Arabic books please mark verses with ﴿ ﴾. Unmarked verses cannot be told apart from the author's own words.
The Studio tells you how many verses it found before you narrate. The option is on by default; you can switch it off for a book that has no Quranic text but uses vowelled Arabic for other reasons.
A worked example
قرآنِ مجید میں ارشاد ہے: ﴿إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا﴾ یعنی ہر مشکل کے ساتھ آسانی ہے۔
The Urdu sentence is narrated; the verse (Al-Sharh 94:6) is shown in green and the audio pauses for it. Hear this example →
What Audify does not do
- It does not recite the Quran. If you need recitation, use a licensed recording by a qualified qari.
- It does not check or correct Quranic text. Please verify verses in your book against a standard Mushaf before publishing.
