About Islam.wiki

Islam.wiki is the most comprehensive Islamic knowledge base on the internet. We are a community-driven, scholar-verified reference covering all aspects of Islam: Quran, Hadith, Seerah, classical scholarship, and encyclopedic articles. Our content draws from fourteen centuries of Islamic scholarship, presented in a format accessible to Muslims and non-Muslims alike — from students of knowledge to academics, from new converts to lifelong practitioners.

Our Mission

To make authentic Islamic knowledge freely accessible to everyone, in every language, forever. We follow the methodology of Ahl us-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah, presenting all four schools of jurisprudence equally and drawing from classical scholarship as our primary sources. We do not favor any modern scholar, movement, or political position. Our goal is to be a neutral, authoritative reference — the kind that a student, a teacher, or a curious reader can rely on without worrying about ideological bias.

Every claim on Islam.wiki is sourced. Every hadith includes its collection, book, and number. Every scholarly opinion cites the scholar and their work. We do not publish personal opinions or unsourced claims, and our moderation system enforces this at every level.

What We Cover

Islam.wiki is organized into major sections reflecting the breadth of the Islamic tradition. The Quran section includes the full Arabic text, multiple translations, tafsir (exegesis), recitation, and word-by-word analysis. The Hadith section covers all major collections with grading, isnad analysis, and cross-references. Seerah offers an interactive timeline of Prophetic biography. People contains biographies of scholars, Companions, narrators, and historical figures. Books provides access to classical Islamic works. Articles, Videos, and Audio cover contemporary scholarship and media. The Wiki section is our open encyclopedia for everything else.

Our Methodology

In matters of jurisprudence (fiqh), we present all four madhabs — Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali — equally and without preference. In matters of creed (aqeedah), our primary framework is Athari, while recognizing Ash'ari and Maturidi as legitimate positions within Sunni Islam. Content that contradicts the consensus of Ahl us-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah is either not published, or clearly labeled as a minority or deviant position.

Part of the Ummat Ecosystem

Islam.wiki is developed by Ummat Dev as part of the Ummat ecosystem — a suite of Islamic digital tools serving the global Muslim community. Our sister apps include PrayCalc (prayer times), Ummat App (community hub), and ChatIslam (AI-powered Islamic Q&A). All Ummat products are free to use and built to serve the ummah, not to generate profit from it.

Community Contributions

Islam.wiki grows through community contributions. Scholars, students, and knowledgeable community members can register and contribute content, with edits reviewed by our moderation team. We believe that the Islamic scholarly tradition belongs to the ummah — our platform exists to preserve, organize, and disseminate it.
