How to Muslim

What Is the Quran?

The Quran is what Muslims believe are the exact words of God, given to Prophet Muhammad over 23 years. 114 chapters, unchanged since. Its core message is simple: God is one, this life is a test, and every person will answer for how they lived it. You can start reading it today.

These are the four questions people ask most, answered plainly.

How do you start reading it?

Short version: pick a clear translation, start small, and listen while you read.

Every verse on this page is quoted from The Clear Quran by Dr. Mustafa Khattab. Translations differ in wording, so if you compare a verse elsewhere and it reads differently, that is the translator, not the text.

Have questions about getting started?
