Identify a recitation
Hear an ayah — from a speaker, a mosque, a video, or your own voice — and know exactly where it is in the mushaf. Recite the phrase you caught and the matcher searches all 6,236 ayat on your device; or let it listen to a recording that is playing and it matches an acoustic fingerprint of the clip, sending only the fingerprint, not the audio. Cited answers are educational support, not a fatwa.
Two ways to identify
Reciting to search runs entirely in the browser against the full mushaf index. Identifying a recording fingerprints ten seconds of what the microphone hears and matches the landmarks against known published recitations, the same technique music identification uses.
It names the reciter of a matched recording
Every fingerprinted track carries the reciter it belongs to, so a recording match also says whose recording it is. Results are graded confident or likely against measured thresholds, and a clip that matches nothing in the corpus is refused rather than guessed.
FAQ
Which surah is this? Can it tell from audio?
Yes. Point the microphone at the recitation, or recite the phrase you remember, and it names the surah and ayah, then opens the verse with translation and tafsir.
Does it recognise which reciter is playing?
When the clip matches a recording in the fingerprint corpus, the answer names that recording’s reciter. Voices and recordings outside the corpus are refused, not approximated — it does not identify a person’s own reciting voice.
Is the audio uploaded?
Recite-to-search matches on your device. Recording identification sends an anonymous acoustic fingerprint — a list of numeric landmarks — rather than the recording itself.
