Terms of service

The service

mutqin is a free service that returns stored texts from known sources: the Quran, its tafsir and translations of its meanings, hadiths and their explanations, and the library's books. You reach them on the website, or from your AI assistant through the tools server at https://mutqin.dev/mcp. No accounts and no subscription.

mutqin returns the text exactly as it is in its source, with the source named. It never writes Quran text of its own, and it does not give fatwas.

Who provides the service

mutqin is provided by PIXELIQUE OÜ, a company registered in Estonia with registry code 16659635, at Tornimäe tn 5, Kesklinna linnaosa, Tallinn 10145, Harju maakond, Estonia. Where these terms say "we", they mean this company. Contact: info@mutqin.dev.

No warranty

We offer the service free of charge, "as is" and "as available", without any warranty: it may stop, slow down or contain mistakes. We work for accurate texts, but we do not guarantee they are free of errors.

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any harm arising from using the service or from being unable to use it.

The texts and their sources

The texts belong to their publishers and keep their licences and terms: the King Fahd Complex for the Printing of the Holy Quran, the Tafsir Center for Quranic Studies (CC BY 4.0), the Noble Quran Encyclopedia (QuranEnc), and the hadith encyclopedia named on the sources page. Each source and its licence are on the sources page (/sources/).

The library's books come from their printed editions as named on each book card; their footnotes are the edition editor's work, not the author's words.

If you quote a text from mutqin, credit its publisher and follow its licence.

For study, checked against the source

Tafsir, hadith and books are for study and reference. Check the text on its source page before you rely on it or quote it, and turn to qualified scholars for fatwas.

Your AI assistant's answer is its own words, not mutqin's. Compare what it quotes with the tool's result and the source, and quote Quran text only as the tool returned it.

Reporting errors

If you find an error in a text or in the data, tell us through the contact form, choose the topic "An error in a text or data", and give the ayah, or the book and page.

Fair use

The service is shared by everyone, so it has limits that protect it:

• The tools server: one shared limit for all users together (50 requests a second with a short burst), and requests of at most 64 KB.
• Library pages: 120 requests a minute per visitor, and hadith translation views 10 a minute.
• The demo: 30 requests a minute per visitor. The contact form: 5 submission attempts per IP address in 10 minutes, and 100 from all visitors together per hour.

Going over a limit gets a "too many requests" answer; wait a little and try again. You may not:

• Copy the library, or a large part of it, by automated means, or download the books in bulk.
• Try to get around the limits, overload or attack the service, or probe it for weaknesses without our permission.
• Present the service or its texts as your own, or suggest that mutqin or the texts' publishers endorse your work.
• Alter the texts and then attribute them to mutqin or to their sources.

We may block any traffic that breaks these terms or harms the service.

Rights holders

If you believe a text on mutqin affects a right of yours, write to info@mutqin.dev with the text, where it is, and your right in it. We review the request and hide the text where needed.

AI assistants

When you use mutqin from an AI assistant, the terms of the company that provides it also apply to you. We do not control the assistant or its answers.

Changes to the service and these terms

We may change, limit or stop the service, in whole or in part, at any time. We may change these terms, and then we update the "Last updated" date at the top. Using the service after a change means you accept it.
