Safha: Quran Mushaf

Every page of the Madani mushaf, as printed

Safha is a Quran app for iPhone with the 604-page Madani mushaf (Hafs) as it was printed, in the King Fahd Complex’s calligraphy, line for line. It’s there for daily reading and your Ramadan khatm, even offline.

Coming 23 October

  • iPhone, iOS 26 or later
  • Optimised for iPhone Duo
  • Offline after one download
  • Free, no ads

Safha is in Arabic and English, and the Quran is in Arabic only, with no translation, as in a printed mushaf.

Page 582 on iPhone, where Surah An-Naba and Juz 30 begin: the decorated surah header, the opening line in a light gilt band, and the page number at the foot.
  • Safha’s Ramadan khatm planner, set to finish by the 27th night: 269 of 604 pages read, 23 pages a day with 15 days to go, and today’s pages in five portions, after Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha.

    Your Ramadan khatm, a portion after each prayer

    Finish by the 27th night, by Eid or by a day you choose. Each day’s pages come in five portions, with one quiet reminder a day. No streaks: fall behind, and the rest spreads out again.

  • Ayat al-Kursi selected on the page, with a bar giving its reference, Al-Baqarah 2:255, and buttons to copy, share and bookmark it.

    Share an ayah with its reference

    Touch and hold a word to select its ayah. Copy it, share it with its surah and ayah number, or bookmark it. Your bookmarked ayahs and pages wait in Contents.

  • The night page: page 562, the opening of Surah Al-Mulk, in ivory-gold text on a deep green-black page.

    A night page for after Isha and suhoor

    The night page is a deep green-black with soft ivory-gold text, gentle in a dark room after Isha or at suhoor. Choose day or night, or let it follow your iPhone.

  • Page 22, where Juz 2 begins: its opening words sit in a light gilt band, with the juz marker in the margin, and Al-Baqarah and Juz 2 in the running head.

    Straight to any surah, juz or page

    Open Contents to go to a surah, juz, hizb or page, or to your bookmarks. A new juz begins in a light gilt band, easy to spot as you read, and Safha reopens where you left off.

Two facing pages on iPhone Duo

Each half of the inner display is almost exactly the shape of a printed Madinah page, and so is the cover. Hold iPhone Duo half open, like a book, and the running head, page numbers and hizb markers appear around the pages. Opening or folding it never loses your place.

Questions

How many pages a day to finish the Quran in Ramadan?
The Madani mushaf has 604 pages. Over 30 days that’s about 20 pages a day, roughly a juz; over 27 nights, to finish by the 27th night, about 22 or 23. Split across the five prayers, that’s four or five pages after each. Safha’s khatm planner does the sums for you.
Is there a Quran app that looks like the printed mushaf?
Safha is one. It shows the 604-page Madani mushaf (Hafs) in the King Fahd Complex’s calligraphy, line for line as in print, with its surah headers and hizb markers. Pages turn like paper: one at a time on iPhone, two facing pages on an open iPhone Duo.
Can I read the Quran offline on iPhone?
Yes, with Safha. It needs the internet once, to download the mushaf (about 5 MB), and after that every page opens offline. When you’re online it checks for updates about once a day; if it can’t connect, it simply reads from the copy on your iPhone.
Is there a free Quran app with no ads?
Safha is free, with no ads, no account and no in-app purchases, and nothing in it is locked: every page, the khatm planner and the night page are there from the start. It collects no data; your bookmarks and khatm plan stay on your iPhone.
Is the Quran text in Safha checked for accuracy?
Yes. The text and fonts come from Quran Foundation, and every word on a page is checked against its text before the page is shown. The whole text has also been compared, word for word, with the Tanzil Project’s. If a page looks wrong, tell us.
Can I plan a Quran khatm outside Ramadan?
Yes. Besides the 27th night of Ramadan and Eid, Safha’s khatm planner lets you finish by any day you choose. It splits the pages left into five portions a day, one after each prayer, and if you fall behind, it spreads the rest over the days that remain.

Keep the mushaf close

Safha is free for iPhone and optimised for iPhone Duo. After one small download, all 604 pages go wherever you go, online or not.
