About this app

Ibrah puts Ibn Kathir's al-Bidaya wa-l-Nihaya on your phone: from the creation of the heavens and the earth, through the stories of the prophets and the life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), to the caliphs. Every claim comes with its volume and page.

READ THE BOOK
• Volumes 1 to 10 of al-Turki's edition, in Arabic with English and Indonesian translations
• Every paragraph keeps its volume and page, so you can find it in a printed copy
• Quran verses in full, with the Kemenag (Indonesian) and ClearQuran (English) translations
• Bookmarks, reading position and chapters read, synced to your other phones when you sign in

ASK ABOUT IT
• Ask in English, Indonesian or Arabic, and get an answer written only from what Ibn Kathir says
• Each sentence cites the paragraphs it comes from: tap a citation to read the passage
• Ibn Kathir's own verdicts on a report, such as weak, gharib or taken from the Isra'iliyyat, are kept
• Check an answer against the book: a second pass compares every sentence with its sources
• Suggested questions for each story, free for everyone

COINS
Ibrah is non-profit. Answers are written by AI, which costs money, so your own questions are paid for with coins:
• Standard answer: 1 coin
• Premium answer: 8 coins. Every step runs on the most capable model, and the answer is checked against the book right away
• Checking a Standard answer: 2 coins
New accounts get 5 coins. Coins come back automatically when the book has no answer. Prices cover the AI, the store's fee and running costs, with a small reserve.

NOT A FATWA
Ibrah retells what Ibn Kathir wrote. It isn't a source of religious rulings. The translations are machine drafts, reviewed over time.
