2026 year-in-review impact highlights showing global reach and platform engagement metrics

Quran.com - Expanding Access and Impact Worldwide

This year, Quran.com was significantly enhanced to provide a more powerful, accessible, and beneficial experience for readers at every stage.

Improved reading and study tools

The Quran.com reader was redesigned to support deeper engagement through Study Mode, enhanced navigation, improved collections, new verse comparison tool, layered translations, hadith, and related ayah discovery. Improvements were also made to Notes and collections features.

Greater global accessibility

Nineteen new translations were added, including underserved languages. Word-by-word translation expanded to six languages, and a dedicated Vietnamese experience was launched. Automatic localization now adapts the experience based on a user's country and device language.

Reliability and performance at global scale

Quran.com and its services were transitioned to fully self-hosted infrastructure. In simple terms, this means faster performance, greater stability during peak times like Ramadan, stronger reliability for millions of users worldwide, and long-term cost sustainability to support responsible growth.

Learning Plans - From reading to transformation

Structured Learning Plans received an overwhelmingly positive response this year, with thousands of enrollees and more than 3,000 five-star ratings from users who found them deeply meaningful and beneficial. These structured resources helped people connect their real-life challenges to the guidance of the Quran and see how specific verses speak to the struggles they face today. They covered topics such as screen use, emotional resilience, and spiritual growth, along with surah-based plans that support deeper study and reflection.

These guided journeys combine Quranic verses, hadith, scholarly insights, reflection prompts, and practical application to move users from passive reading to sustained engagement.

Scholarly depth and authenticity

Content based on authentic scholarship continues to expand, including materials by our resident scholar Dr. Sohaib Saeed such as surah introductions, Qiraat fact files and questionized tafsir. A translation correction and feedback loop was also established to continuously improve accuracy and quality.

Accelerating Access to Quran-Centered Content

This year, we built a new content management system (CMS) for Quran.com - a major milestone that will significantly accelerate our ability to serve users. In the past, adding new lessons and educational resources required technical work and long timelines. This new system allows our team to create, review, and publish high-quality Quran-centered content much faster across multiple languages, helping more people around the world access guidance, reflection, and learning when they need it.

Mobile Apps - The Quran in Daily Life

Quran Android and Quran iOS continue to be the go-to Quran apps for millions around the world.

In addition, we strategically began laying the technical foundation for Quran.com, Quran Android, and Quran iOS to enable users to move seamlessly between web and mobile without losing their bookmarks, reading history, notes, and more. These features will be launching soon, insha'Allah.

QuranReflect - Strengthening a Global Culture of Reflection

A major new version of QuranReflect was released across web, iOS, and Android, featuring a redesigned homepage, improved discovery, enhanced feeds, and a more intuitive experience. This year, QuranReflect welcomed over 1 million visitors, with thousands of reflections written and shared as users connected their lives to the guidance of the Quran.

Beyond the platform, QuranReflect continued to grow as a living global community. Throughout the year, we hosted live reflection retreats and interactive sessions, including podcasts and discussions with guest scholars and speakers. We collaborated with other Quran-driven institutions to deliver in-person reflection programmes. Twelve monthly themes helped guide collective reflection and action, including initiatives such as #RamadanReady, #ReflectingInCrisis, #LightForGaza, #TadabburTaughtMe, and other campaigns that encouraged users to engage with the Quran around real-life concerns and global events.

Alhamdulillah, QuranReflect continues to grow as a safe, carefully moderated space where people reflect, learn from one another, and strengthen their connection to the Quran.

Strategic Partnerships and Collaboration

To maximize impact and avoid duplication, Quran.Foundation actively engages with organizations, scholars, and communities across the global Quran ecosystem, including initiatives and convenings such as the Quran Summit, Aqwam Qeela, and Muslim Tech Fest. We also collaborate with partners like Yaqeen Institute and the Global Guidance Center. The team works to listen, align efforts, and identify opportunities for collective impact. This approach ensures that resources are used wisely and that the work strengthens the broader global effort to serve the Quran.

Developer Ecosystem and Open Access

This year marked major growth in tools that extend the Quran's reach beyond our own platforms.

Key initiatives included:

  • Launch of Quran Apps Page
  • Launch of Quran Labs
  • Secure APIs with OAuth support
  • The Ayah Embed Builder, allowing websites and platforms to embed accurate Quran text, translations, and audio

These tools enable developers, educators, and organizations worldwide to responsibly build Quran-centered experiences, multiplying impact far beyond a single platform.

Organizational Strength

To support growing global demand, Quran.Foundation expanded its international team across product, engineering, leadership, and content, with contributors spanning multiple regions. Every addition was made thoughtfully to ensure responsible stewardship of donor funds while strengthening our ability to serve more users effectively. Work also began on a comprehensive rebranding initiative to advance the mission and further growing global role and impact, insha'Allah.

Looking Ahead

In the coming year, Quran.Foundation will focus on:

  • Curating and deepening transformational learning experiences
  • Enrich Ayah and Surah level content and experience
  • Expanding access for underserved languages and regions
  • Scaling responsibly with scholarly integrity and technical excellence
  • Strengthening developer tools and partnerships
  • Connecting and unifying experiences across apps
