About this app

Sūra al-Furqān (Arabic: سُورَة الفُرْقان) is the twenty fifth sura of the Qur'an. It is one of the Makki suras of the Qur'an in its eighteenth and nineteenth juz's. The word, "furqan", means the thing that separates the right from the wrong or the truth from falsehood. The sura involves teachings about monotheism, resurrection, prophethood, and fight against idolatry. The last verses of the sura characterize true believes. It is recommended to prostrate when reciting or hearing the sixtieth verse of this sura. The well-known verses of the sura include its thirtieth verse (abandonment of the Qur'an), fifty third verse (separation of sweet and bitter seas), and fifty ninth verse (creation of the world in six days).

With regard to the virtue of reciting this sura, the Prophet (s) is quoted as saying: "if a person recites Sura al-Furqan, he will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment while he believes in the resurrection and has no doubts that people in the graves will be resurrected".
This Surah Furqan is recited by Abdul Basit, Mohamed Siddiq El-Minshawi, Abu Bakr al-Shatri and Saad al-Ghamdi, in their beautiful voices.
