Connect to Claude and ChatGPT

Qurani.ai exposes its Quran tools through a public MCP server. Once added, your assistant can read verses, translations and tafsir, search the Quran, compare narrations and more, with every answer grounded in the exact text.

    Click "Add custom connector".

    Enter the MCP server URL shown above. If asked for an authentication method choose "No sign-in"; the server is public and needs no credentials.

ChatGPT

Requires Developer mode, available on paid ChatGPT plans.

    Open Settings > Apps (or Connectors), then Advanced settings, and turn on Developer mode. Confirm the warning about unverified apps.

  2. 2

    Create a connector

    Back on the Apps page click Create (sometimes labelled "New connector").

OpenAI renamed Connectors to Apps in late 2025. Depending on your version you may see either label.

Other MCP-compatible apps

Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, Windsurf and most agent frameworks accept a remote MCP server over HTTP. Add this to your MCP configuration:

{  "mcpServers": {    "quranhub": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://api.qurani.ai/gw/mcp"    }  }}

Example prompts to try

Once connected, ask things like:

  • “Show me Ayat al-Kursi (2:255) in Arabic with the Sahih International translation.”
  • “Which verses in the Quran mention patience? Give the references.”
  • “Compare the Hafs and Warsh narrations for page 1 of the mushaf.”
  • “What does Tafsir Ibn Kathir say about Surah Al-Fatiha, verse 5?”
  • “List the reciters available for Surah Yasin.”
  • “Give me a random verse and explain the tajweed rules in it.”

What we receive

The assistant sends us only the tool request it decides to make, such as "get ayah 2:255". We never see your conversation. Details are in the Privacy Policy.
