How we verify
An honest description of how each page is built, what the citations mean, and where the boundaries are.
Quranic text
The Arabic text uses the Uthmani script edition (with full tashkeel/diacritics) sourced from alquran.cloud / Quran.com. The English text uses the Sahih International translation. Both are widely used and trusted translations; the Sahih International is favored for its clear, modern English while remaining faithful to the Arabic.
The full Quran is 114 surahs and 6,236 verses. This site contains every verse of both, exactly as they appear in the source editions.
The 99 Names list
The list of 99 Names is taken from the hadith in Sahih Muslim 2610, with transliterations and English meanings from classical and contemporary Islamic scholarship. Variations in the order or specific Arabic wording exist across scholars (al-Bayhaqi, al-Ghazali, Ibn Hajar, etc.) — this site uses the most commonly cited version.
Name → verse mapping
For each Name, this site lists Quranic verses where that attribute is invoked. The mapping falls into four categories, indicated on each page:
- Direct — the Name's Arabic word appears in the verse (e.g. الرَّحْمَنُ in 1:1).
- Verbal form — the Quran uses a verb form of the attribute (e.g. for al-Muhyi, "The Giver of Life", we cite verses using the verb يحيي "He gives life").
- Concept — the Name itself is not used in the Quran, but the attribute it represents is clearly described (e.g. al-Jalil, "The Mighty", is in the hadith list; the concept is described across many verses).
For each Name, up to N verses are shown (cap varies by Name). When a Name has more verses than the cap, the user can search for the full list.
Sources used for the mapping
- Classical tafsir: Tafsir al-Jalalayn (al-Mahalli & al-Suyuti)
- al-Ghazali, al-Maqasid al-Hasana fi Bayan Kathir min al-Asma al-Husna
- Ibn al-Qayyim, al-Asma wa al-Sifat
- Tanzil.net concept tagging (where available)
- Direct search of the Arabic text for the Name's root and its variants (Uthmani script, including al-wasla and final-ya forms)
What this site is not
This site does not provide tafsir (exegesis) of the verses. It links the Names to the verses, but the reader is responsible for studying each verse in its full context — including the surrounding verses, the reason for revelation (asbab al-nuzul), and the classical scholarship.
Different scholars may attribute different verses to different Names. The mappings here represent one reasonable classical view; they are not the only possible mapping.
Technical note
The site is built as a static site, deployed anywhere. The full Quran text (4.5MB JSON) is preprocessed at build time into a single dataset; the site is fast and works offline once loaded.
