Kalimat - Learn Quran Words

You already know the words. Kalimat helps you know what they mean.

Most of us read the Quran without following it. Kalimat fixes that from the vocabulary up: roughly 600 words account for about 75% of every word in the Quran. Learn those, and most of what you recite starts to make sense.

Kalimat is completely free. No ads, no subscription, no account, no tracking.

WHAT YOU LEARN • 600 of the most frequent Quranic words, introduced in frequency order — the most useful ones first • A plain-language explanation for every single word • Real Quranic verses showing each word in context, set in authentic Nastaleeq script • Trilateral roots, so you start recognizing whole word families • Grammatical forms — present tense, imperative, active participle, verbal noun, plurals

HOW REVIEWS WORK Kalimat uses SM-2 spaced repetition, the algorithm behind the most respected memorization tools. Words you know space out; words you miss come back sooner. You never have to grade yourself — the app notices whether you were right and how quickly you answered, and schedules the next review for you.

Four question formats keep sessions from turning into autopilot: • Knowledge Check — Arabic to meaning • Recall Check — meaning to Arabic • Listening Check — hear the word, then choose the meaning • True or False — quick judgment calls

The same word is never tested the same way twice in a row.

IN 14 LANGUAGES Word meanings and explanations — not just the menus — are translated into English, Albanian, Bosnian, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Turkish, Dutch, Swedish, Russian, Urdu, Norwegian and Malayalam.

STAY WITH IT • Set your own pace: 3, 5 or 10 new words a day, or anything up to 30 • A daily streak with a one-day freeze, so one busy day doesn't erase your month • 18 achievements to unlock • Progress worth reading: mastery ring, 13-week activity heatmap, accuracy, upcoming reviews, and your five hardest words • Home and Lock Screen widgets — due count, Word of the Day, progress and streak • A Live Activity that follows your session from the Dynamic Island

HEAR EVERY WORD Built-in Arabic text-to-speech reads each word aloud at three speeds. Install an Enhanced Arabic voice in iOS Settings and Kalimat picks it up automatically.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Everything works offline — every word, verse and translation ships inside the app. No third-party SDKs, no analytics, no servers of ours. Your progress syncs through your own private iCloud and nowhere else.

Completely free.
