Subac (سُبَع) is the traditional Somali method of Qur'an memorisation. Teacher and student take turns reciting, one ayah at a time, by heart, until the whole page is mastered. Subac brings that method to your phone or computer.

What is Subac?

The ritual

A practice that feels like yours.

A quiet, repeatable rhythm for the days you have twenty minutes—and the days you only have five.

1

Listen

The app recites an ayah with a world-class reciter.

2

Repeat from memory

You recite the next ayah back — without looking.

3

Get corrected

Speech recognition marks each word green or red with an accuracy score.

Made for real life

Your pace. Your people.

Begin alone, learn with family, or keep the traditional dugsi rhythm. Subac meets you where you are.

Memorization
