Tafsir Muyassar

About tafsir data

Tafsir is available as JSON and SQLite. The text may contain HTML tags such as <b> and <i>, so render it as HTML rather than as plain text.

JSON format

{
  "2:3": {
    "text": "tafsir text",
    "ayah_keys": ["2:3", "2:4"]
  },
  "2:4": "2:3"
}

Every key is an ayah key in surah:ayah form — "2:3" is the third ayah of Surah Al-Baqarah. The value is one of two things:

• An object — the tafsir itself. text holds the content and ayah_keys lists every ayah it covers.
• A string — a pointer. This ayah shares the tafsir stored under the ayah key named by the string. In the example above, "2:4" points at "2:3".

SQLite columns

• ayah_key — the ayah this row is for.
• group_ayah_key — the ayah key holding the shared tafsir text.
• from_ayah / to_ayah — first and last ayah of the passage, for convenience.
• ayah_keys — comma-separated list of every ayah the passage covers.
• text — the tafsir. When it is blank, read the text from group_ayah_key instead.
