What Qiyamah is

A reading application for the Quran and the hadith corpus, built to get out of the way.

Overview

Qiyamah is a place to read. The Quran with translation, tafsir and recitation; 50,884 hadith across seventeen collections, searchable together; prayer times computed for wherever you are.

It works entirely without an account. Signing in adds memory — where you stopped reading, what you bookmarked, what you are memorising — and nothing else. Scripture is never behind a sign-in.

What it holds

The hadith corpus is stored locally, which is why search is instant and why no outage elsewhere can break browsing.

  • The Quran — 114 surahs, 6,236 ayahs, with 126 translation editions and Ibn Kathir's tafsir
  • Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim in full
  • The four Sunan, Muwatta Malik, Musnad Ahmad and Sunan ad-Darimi
  • Riyad as-Salihin, Bulugh al-Maram, Al-Adab Al-Mufrad, Shamail Muhammadiyah, Mishkat al-Masabih
  • The three Forties — Nawawi, Qudsi and Shah Waliullah
  • 29,312 scholarly gradings, attributed to the scholar who gave them

Where the corpus is incomplete

Two gaps are real and are shown rather than hidden, because a blank panel reads as a bug in the software rather than a property of the source.

  • Sunan ad-Darimi has no English translation at all — 3,406 hadith, Arabic only. The collection is labelled as such everywhere it appears.
  • Mishkat al-Masabih carries 4,273 gradings of which only 191 are in English. Where a grading is shown in Arabic, its language is marked so it does not read as a mistranslation.
