    Read the passage · Al-Balad

    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ١

    I swear by this city, Makkah -

    وَأَنتَ حِلٌّۢ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ٢

    And you, [O Muhammad], are free of restriction in this city -

    وَوَالِدٍۢ وَمَا وَلَدَ٣

    And [by] the father and that which was born [of him],

    لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ فِى كَبَدٍ٤

    We have certainly created man into hardship.

    أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّن يَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌۭ٥

    Does he think that never will anyone overcome him?

    يَقُولُ أَهْلَكْتُ مَالًۭا لُّبَدًا٦

    He says, "I have spent wealth in abundance."

    أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّمْ يَرَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ٧

    Does he think that no one has seen him?

    أَلَمْ نَجْعَل لَّهُۥ عَيْنَيْنِ٨

    Have We not made for him two eyes?

    وَلِسَانًۭا وَشَفَتَيْنِ٩

    And a tongue and two lips?

    وَهَدَيْنَٰهُ ٱلنَّجْدَيْنِ١٠

    And have shown him the two ways?

    فَلَا ٱقْتَحَمَ ٱلْعَقَبَةَ١١

    But he has not broken through the difficult pass.

    وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْعَقَبَةُ١٢

    And what can make you know what is [breaking through] the difficult pass?

    فَكُّ رَقَبَةٍ١٣

    It is the freeing of a slave

    أَوْ إِطْعَٰمٌۭ فِى يَوْمٍۢ ذِى مَسْغَبَةٍۢ١٤

    Or feeding on a day of severe hunger

    يَتِيمًۭا ذَا مَقْرَبَةٍ١٥

    An orphan of near relationship

    أَوْ مِسْكِينًۭا ذَا مَتْرَبَةٍۢ١٦

    Or a needy person in misery

    ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْمَرْحَمَةِ١٧

    And then being among those who believed and advised one another to patience and advised one another to compassion.

    أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ١٨

    Those are the companions of the right.

    وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا هُمْ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ١٩

    But they who disbelieved in Our signs - those are the companions of the left.

    عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌۭ مُّؤْصَدَةٌۢ٢٠

    Over them will be fire closed in.

    Read the passage · At-Tin

    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    وَٱلتِّينِ وَٱلزَّيْتُونِ١

    By the fig and the olive

    وَطُورِ سِينِينَ٢

    And [by] Mount Sinai

    وَهَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ ٱلْأَمِينِ٣

    And [by] this secure city [Makkah],

    لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ فِىٓ أَحْسَنِ تَقْوِيمٍۢ٤

    We have certainly created man in the best of stature;

    ثُمَّ رَدَدْنَٰهُ أَسْفَلَ سَٰفِلِينَ٥

    Then We return him to the lowest of the low,

    إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ فَلَهُمْ أَجْرٌ غَيْرُ مَمْنُونٍۢ٦

    Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds, for they will have a reward uninterrupted.

    فَمَا يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعْدُ بِٱلدِّينِ٧

    So what yet causes you to deny the Recompense?

    أَلَيْسَ ٱللَّهُ بِأَحْكَمِ ٱلْحَٰكِمِينَ٨

    Is not Allah the most just of judges?

  3. Isha

    An-Najm 27–55

    Imam: Maher Al-Muaiqly

    Read the passage · An-Najm 27–55

    إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْءَاخِرَةِ لَيُسَمُّونَ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ تَسْمِيَةَ ٱلْأُنثَىٰ٢٧

    Indeed, those who do not believe in the Hereafter name the angels female names,

    وَمَا لَهُم بِهِۦ مِنْ عِلْمٍ ۖ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ ۖ وَإِنَّ ٱلظَّنَّ لَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ شَيْـًۭٔا٢٨

    And they have thereof no knowledge. They follow not except assumption, and indeed, assumption avails not against the truth at all.

    فَأَعْرِضْ عَن مَّن تَوَلَّىٰ عَن ذِكْرِنَا وَلَمْ يُرِدْ إِلَّا ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا٢٩

    So turn away from whoever turns his back on Our message and desires not except the worldly life.

    ذَٰلِكَ مَبْلَغُهُم مِّنَ ٱلْعِلْمِ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ ٱهْتَدَىٰ٣٠

    That is their sum of knowledge. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who strays from His way, and He is most knowing of who is guided.

    وَلِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ لِيَجْزِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسَٰٓـُٔوا۟ بِمَا عَمِلُوا۟ وَيَجْزِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا۟ بِٱلْحُسْنَى٣١

    And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth - that He may recompense those who do evil with [the penalty of] what they have done and recompense those who do good with the best [reward] -

    ٱلَّذِينَ يَجْتَنِبُونَ كَبَٰٓئِرَ ٱلْإِثْمِ وَٱلْفَوَٰحِشَ إِلَّا ٱللَّمَمَ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ وَٰسِعُ ٱلْمَغْفِرَةِ ۚ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِكُمْ إِذْ أَنشَأَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِذْ أَنتُمْ أَجِنَّةٌۭ فِى بُطُونِ أُمَّهَٰتِكُمْ ۖ فَلَا تُزَكُّوٓا۟ أَنفُسَكُمْ ۖ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنِ ٱتَّقَىٰٓ٣٢

    Those who avoid the major sins and immoralities, only [committing] slight ones. Indeed, your Lord is vast in forgiveness. He was most knowing of you when He produced you from the earth and when you were fetuses in the wombs of your mothers. So do not claim yourselves to be pure; He is most knowing of who fears Him.

    أَفَرَءَيْتَ ٱلَّذِى تَوَلَّىٰ٣٣

    Have you seen the one who turned away

    وَأَعْطَىٰ قَلِيلًۭا وَأَكْدَىٰٓ٣٤

    And gave a little and [then] refrained?

    أَعِندَهُۥ عِلْمُ ٱلْغَيْبِ فَهُوَ يَرَىٰٓ٣٥

    Does he have knowledge of the unseen, so he sees?

    أَمْ لَمْ يُنَبَّأْ بِمَا فِى صُحُفِ مُوسَىٰ٣٦

    Or has he not been informed of what was in the scriptures of Moses

    وَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلَّذِى وَفَّىٰٓ٣٧

    And [of] Abraham, who fulfilled [his obligations] -

    أَلَّا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌۭ وِزْرَ أُخْرَىٰ٣٨

    That no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another

    وَأَن لَّيْسَ لِلْإِنسَٰنِ إِلَّا مَا سَعَىٰ٣٩

    And that there is not for man except that [good] for which he strives

    وَأَنَّ سَعْيَهُۥ سَوْفَ يُرَىٰ٤٠

    And that his effort is going to be seen -

    ثُمَّ يُجْزَىٰهُ ٱلْجَزَآءَ ٱلْأَوْفَىٰ٤١

    Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense

    وَأَنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ ٱلْمُنتَهَىٰ٤٢

    And that to your Lord is the finality

    وَأَنَّهُۥ هُوَ أَضْحَكَ وَأَبْكَىٰ٤٣

    And that it is He who makes [one] laugh and weep

    وَأَنَّهُۥ هُوَ أَمَاتَ وَأَحْيَا٤٤

    And that it is He who causes death and gives life

    وَأَنَّهُۥ خَلَقَ ٱلزَّوْجَيْنِ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰ٤٥

    And that He creates the two mates - the male and female -

    مِن نُّطْفَةٍ إِذَا تُمْنَىٰ٤٦

    From a sperm-drop when it is emitted

    وَأَنَّ عَلَيْهِ ٱلنَّشْأَةَ ٱلْأُخْرَىٰ٤٧

    And that [incumbent] upon Him is the next creation

    وَأَنَّهُۥ هُوَ أَغْنَىٰ وَأَقْنَىٰ٤٨

    And that it is He who enriches and suffices

    وَأَنَّهُۥ هُوَ رَبُّ ٱلشِّعْرَىٰ٤٩

    And that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius

    وَأَنَّهُۥٓ أَهْلَكَ عَادًا ٱلْأُولَىٰ٥٠

    And that He destroyed the first [people of] 'Aad

    وَثَمُودَا۟ فَمَآ أَبْقَىٰ٥١

    And Thamud - and He did not spare [them] -

    وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍۢ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ هُمْ أَظْلَمَ وَأَطْغَىٰ٥٢

    And the people of Noah before. Indeed, it was they who were [even] more unjust and oppressing.

    وَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَةَ أَهْوَىٰ٥٣

    And the overturned towns He hurled down

    فَغَشَّىٰهَا مَا غَشَّىٰ٥٤

    And covered them by that which He covered.

    فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارَىٰ٥٥

    Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt?

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently. The live tracker's ayat begin on 25 September 2026; for earlier days this page shows the Haramain library's records.

Look up a day

Hijri date

Where this comes from

Each prayer's imam, passage and recording are listed by the Haramain library, Tilawat al-Haramain (tilawatalharamain.com), usually within a few hours of the prayer. Its titles are written by hand; Hasanah reads the surahs and ayat from them.

The ayat by rak'ah come from Hasanah's live tracker, which listens to the Quran channel's broadcast from the Haram and names each ayah as it is recited. It has kept them since 25 September 2026. It can miss an ayah or mishear one, so a passage it heard may be a little shorter or longer than the one recited.

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently, so there is no recitation to show for them. Times are calculated for Makkah by the Umm al-Qura method.
