Copyright and attribution

ZohaNur includes work created by others. This page records what is included and under what basis. If something here is wrong, we want to hear about it — see raising a claim below.

Quran text#

The Arabic text of the Quran is not subject to copyright. The specific digital editions used — Uthmani, IndoPak, Naskh and Tajweed-annotated — are drawn from published digital corpora, and the source of each is credited within the app.

Translations#

Translations of the Quran are copyrighted works belonging to their translators and publishers. ZohaNur includes only editions that are in the public domain or made available for free non-commercial distribution, and each is credited by translator name in the app.

Hadith collections#

The classical collections are not copyrighted. The digital compilations and English translations used carry their own terms, and the compilation source is credited in the app alongside each collection.

Recitation#

Recitation audio is streamed and downloaded from public Quran audio archives. Copyright in a recitation rests with the reciter and the publisher of the recording. ZohaNur does not claim ownership of any recitation and does not sell audio.

Fonts and design#

Arabic typefaces are used under their published open font licences. The ZohaNur name, logotype, colour scheme and interface design are original work belonging to the developer.

Raising a claim#

If you own rights in material included in ZohaNur and believe it is used improperly, please write to [email protected] with:

1. What material is involved and where it appears in the app.
2. Evidence of your ownership or authority to act.
3. What you would like done.

The response to a well-founded claim is removal, not argument. Material under credible dispute is withdrawn in the next release while the matter is examined. This is a charitable project with no commercial interest in anyone else's work.
