About similar ayah data

This resource links ayahs that share wording. It is useful for exploring recurring phrases and expressions across the Quran, and for building “where else does this appear?” features. The data is exported as JSON and SQLite.

SQLite columns

Column Type What it holds
verse_key TEXT The source ayah, for example 1:1.
matched_ayah_key TEXT The ayah that shares wording with it.
matched_words_count INTEGER How many words the two ayahs have in common.
coverage INTEGER Percentage of the source ayah's words that matched.
score INTEGER Similarity score from 0 to 100.
match_words_range TEXT Which word positions in the matched ayah line up with the source.

Reading a row

Say 1:1 matches 27:30 with:

Row
matched_words_count: 4
coverage: 100
score: 100
match_words_range: [5, 8]

That reads as: four words are shared, they account for all of the source ayah, the similarity score is 100, and in 27:30 the match runs from word 5 to word 8.
