## Key facts

- Quran Gallery is a free, ad-free suite of Islamic apps; no advertising code runs on any page. Reading and listening need no account.
- One free Quran Gallery account signs you in to every app. Signed in, your data is saved to your account on Quran Gallery's servers and appears on every device where you sign in: in Quran your bookmarks, notes, highlights, collections, reading plans and reading position; in Listen your favorites, playlists, listening history and Quran challenge. Listen keeps them on the device when you are signed out and adds them to your account when you sign in.
- Quran Gallery is software at qurangallery.com, an independent project: it is not Quran.com or part of it, and it is not a physical gallery, museum or exhibition of Quran manuscripts.
- Quran Gallery is not affiliated with quran.gallery, a separate site run by someone else.
- The apps: Quran, Listen, Prayer, Adhkar, Chat, MCP, Mirath, Rijal, Madrasah, Meet, Design Studio and Blog, plus Docs. Each lives under qurangallery.com/<app> (for example qurangallery.com/mcp); there are no per-app subdomains, and accounts.qurangallery.com is only the sign-in service.
- Prayer: 68,000+ cities in 245 countries and territories, 15 calculation methods, Asr by madhab, Hijri calendar with 8 moon-sighting authorities, qibla direction.
- Quran: 23 classical and modern tafsirs, 150 translations in 79 languages, word-by-word meanings in 9 languages, scan mode with original printed mushaf pages.
- Quran Gallery Listen: 230+ reciters, 20 riwayat, audio tafsir, 170+ live radio stations; sleep timer, repeat (surah everywhere, ayah range on verse-timed recordings), 0.25–2× speed, background play, download as MP3, and favorites and playlists without an account. Details: https://qurangallery.com/listen/player
- What makes it different: one platform instead of a separate app per task, and primary sources (printed mushaf pages, classical tafsir, cited hadith) rather than paraphrase.

## Mirath

Mirath (https://qurangallery.com/mirath) is a free Islamic inheritance (farāʾiḍ) calculator in 7 languages. Enter the deceased, the estate (with debts, funeral costs and a bequest capped at one third) and the surviving relatives — 33 relations, from the spouse, children and parents to great-grandchildren, nephews, uncles, cousins and the distant relatives (dhawū al-arḥām). It divides the estate in exact fractions, shows each step of the working (ḥisāb) with its Quranic evidence (an-Nisāʾ 4:11, 4:12, 4:176), names who excluded whom, draws the family tree and prints to PDF. The calculation runs in the browser; no account is needed.

- Schools: the four Sunni schools — Ḥanafī, Mālikī, Shāfiʿī and Ḥanbalī. Every family is computed in all four; the result says whether they agree and, when they differ, compares them side by side. They differ on the grandfather with siblings, al-Mushtaraka, a sole spouse's surplus, and how distant relatives divide.
- Rules covered, each with examples computed by the engine: [ʿawl](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/awl), [radd](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/radd), [ḥajb (blocking)](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/hajb), [ʿaṣaba (residuary heirs)](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/asaba), [aṣl and taṣḥīḥ](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/asl-and-tashih), [al-ʿUmariyyatān](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/umariyyatan), [al-Mushtaraka](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/mushtaraka), [al-Akdariyya](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/akdariyya), [the grandfather with siblings](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/grandfather-and-siblings), [al-muʿādda](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/muadda), [dhawū al-arḥām](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/dhawu-al-arham), [estate deductions](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules/estate-deductions). Overview: https://qurangallery.com/mirath/rules
- Not covered: the Jaʿfarī (Shia) school, a missing person (mafqūd), an unborn heir (ḥaml), an heir of indeterminate sex (khunthā), and relatives who died together with the order of death unknown. A case a school sends to the public treasury (bayt al-māl) — such as a sole spouse outside the Ḥanafī school — is marked for a scholar's review instead of being given a number.
- [Methodology](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/methodology): exact fractions, the order the rules are applied, the step trace, the review cases and the limits.
- [Validation](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/test-cases): every test case is computed live by the engine, once per school it names, against its expected shares and classical source.
- [Sources](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/sources): the classical farāʾiḍ works the test cases are checked against.
- [Schools](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/schools): each school's positions and every test family where the schools differ.
- [Verses](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/verses): the inheritance verses 4:11, 4:12 and 4:176 and the shares each fixes.
- [Heirs](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/heirs): a page per relation (for example https://qurangallery.com/mirath/heirs/full_sister) with every situation computed and the school differences.
- [FAQ](https://qurangallery.com/mirath/faq) · [Docs](https://qurangallery.com/docs/mirath/overview) · Sitemap: https://qurangallery.com/mirath/sitemap.xml
- Calculator URL format, to open a family already filled in: https://qurangallery.com/mirath?madhab=hanafi&g=male&estate=100000&wife=1&son=2 — `madhab` is hanafi, maliki, shafii or hanbali; `g` is male or female; `estate` and `currency` are optional; one parameter per relation with its count (son, daughter, wife, husband, father, mother, grandfather, full_brother, full_sister, paternal_sister, maternal_brother, daughter_son, …). Localized pages add the language after /mirath, for example https://qurangallery.com/mirath/ar?madhab=shafii&g=female&husband=1&full_sister=2.
