Search Quran Tips

To make search more effective, the following guidelines may be helpful.

• If you are looking to search a specific Surah (chapter) of the Quran, you can prefix your search with ch:number. So for instance, to search the word "house" in the second chapter (Al-Baqarah) of Quran, you can use the query "ch:2 house". To search multiple chapters, use the notatiaon ch:number1-number2. To search for test of life in the first five chapters, "ch:1-5 test life".
• You can use multiple words to target your query. If more than one keyword is specified, we search all of those words in every verse that is returned.
• We do not search for common words, such as "some", "many", "last" etc. If you use any such words in your query, they will be ignored.
• We do not search for three or less character words. As a result, use words that are four or more characters. Words of length three characters or less will be ignored in search.
• If you have too many search results being returned, use additional keywords in your query so the result size becomes smaller.
