Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of the Short Surahs mobile application (“the App”). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. About the App

Short Surahs is an iOS application that provides offline access to selected short surahs of the Quran, Al-Fatihah, and Ayat al-Kursi, including Arabic text, transliteration, translations, related notes where available, and local audio recitation for supported items.

2. License to Use

Subject to these Terms and the App Store terms that apply to your download, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on Apple devices you own or control for personal, non-commercial purposes.

3. Religious and Educational Content

The App is intended for personal reading, listening, learning, and spiritual use. Translations, transliterations, and notes are provided for convenience and educational purposes. They may not capture every scholarly nuance. For formal religious rulings or detailed study, consult qualified scholars and authoritative sources.

4. Intellectual Property

• The App’s software, design, layout, and branding are owned by the developer or licensed for use in the App.
• Quranic text is a sacred religious text. Presentation within the App does not claim exclusive ownership over the Quran itself.
• Translations, notes, fonts, artwork, and audio recitations included in the App are used under applicable rights or licenses held by the developer. You may not extract, redistribute, resell, or commercially exploit App media or packaged content without permission.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code except where allowed by law
• Copy, modify, redistribute, or sell the App or its bundled media without authorization
• Use the App in any unlawful manner
• Interfere with the App’s normal operation
• Misrepresent the App’s content as an official endorsement by any government, institution, or religious authority unless expressly stated

6. Audio Playback

The App may play bundled audio and support background playback and system media controls. Availability of Bluetooth, car systems, and lock-screen controls depends on your device and system settings. The developer is not responsible for third-party hardware or vehicle systems.

7. No Guarantees

The App is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the developer disclaims warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, uninterrupted availability, and error-free operation.

The developer does not guarantee that translations, notes, or audio timing are complete, free from typographical error, or suitable for every educational or religious purpose.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the developer shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the App.

Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for the App (if any) in the three months before the claim or the minimum amount required by applicable law.

9. Privacy

Your use of the App is also described in the App’s Privacy Policy. Please review that policy to understand how information is handled.

10. App Store and Apple

These Terms are between you and the developer, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Your use of the App must also comply with Apple’s App Store terms and policies. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and Apple’s terms for App Store distribution, Apple’s terms control to the extent required for App Store compliance.

11. Changes and Updates

The developer may update the App and these Terms from time to time. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms, unless applicable law requires additional consent.

12. Termination

Your license ends if you stop using the App or delete it. The developer may stop providing or updating the App at any time. Provisions that by nature should survive termination, including intellectual property and limitation of liability sections, will survive.

13. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in the developer’s place of establishment, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protection laws in your country provide otherwise.

14. Contact

For questions about these Terms, contact the developer using the feedback option in the App, or by email at:
