Introducing the world’s first picture dictionary of the Quran, ‎with the goal of empowering the majority of Muslims (who are not Arabs) to read ‎the Quran in its original, rich Arabic form in just 4-6 months. Five years in the works, this dictionary highlights the ‎connection between all words that share the same root.

- Covers the Quran's 947 verbs, 1045 nouns, and 100 particles arranged by frequency and theme.

- 9-page list of all entries in 242 coupled rhymes, making it easy for students to test their mastery of Quranic words.
