About
Name
The name Amrayn means “two matters” in Arabic, inspired by the ḥadīth of the Prophet ﷺ:
تركت فيكم أمرين لن تضلوا ما تمسكتم بهما: كتاب الله وسنتي
I have left among you two matters; you will never go astray as long as you hold fast to them: the Book of Allāh and my Sunnah.
Al‑Muwattaʾ of Mālik
I chose this name because the website aims to provide technological tools and features that help people engage with the Qur’an and Sunnah more effectively. Amrayn is a reminder to hold firmly to what truly matters, seeking guidance from Allāh's Book and the teachings of the Prophet ﷺ, while using modern technology to make learning, understanding, and practicing Islam easier for the Ummah.
Background
All praise is due to Allāh 
who allowed me to start this website back in 2014 (1435H). Without His permission, this would not have been possible.
This website began as a personal project to deepen my understanding of the Qurʾān. As I delved deep, I wanted a place to organize what I was learning. The site has since grown, and I continue to expand its offerings to benefit the global Muslim community. It is dedicated to spreading the message of Islam according to the Qur'an, the Sunnah (the teachings and practices of Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ), the way of the righteous predecessors, and the esteemed scholars who followed them.
About the Author
By profession, I am a software engineer, a devout Muslim, your brother in Islam, striving to improve myself and safeguard my faith and that of my family from innovations and misguided ways. My level of ʿīmān fluctuates between high and low, just like everyone else. I do not possess vast knowledge, nor do I claim to be a student of knowledge. I am a basic Muslim with foundational knowledge, learning bit by bit and aiming to make learning a daily habit.
My understanding of creed is grounded in classical texts, such as al-ʿAqīdah al-Ṭaḥāwīyah and al-ʿAqīdah al-Wāsiṭīyah. I also draw upon the works of great classical scholars, including Imam al-Tahawi, Imam al-Tabari, Imam al-Nawawi, and Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, among many others. I strive to select the most authentic and beneficial guidance from their works and from the Four Schools of Thought, always seeking what aligns with the Qurʾān and Sunnah. I also acknowledge that no scholar is free from error and am mindful of excusing their mistakes.
I also look to the senior scholars of our time for guidance and verdicts based on their deep knowledge and piety, such as Shaykh ‘Abdurahman al-Sa’di, Shaykh ‘Abdulaziz Ibn Baz, Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, Shaykh al-Albani, Shaykh AbdurRahman al-Barrak, Shaykh Abdul Razzaq al-Badr, Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan, Shaykh Mohammed Saeed Raslan, and the Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta. If they are correct, I follow them. If they have erred, I ask Allāh to forgive them and reward them for their Ijtihād (scholarly effort in seeking the truth). In accordance with the confirmed Sunnah, I pray for the guidance of our Muslim political leaders, even if they are oppressive, and I do not incite rebellion against them.
Ultimately, anything good and true you find here comes from Allāh Almighty and His Messenger ﷺ. Any errors or falsehoods are from myself, my own ignorance, and Satan. I seek refuge in Allāh from the accursed Devil, so that he does not misguide me or cause me to misguide others.
Motivation
Every project needs a driving force. My primary motivation, beyond seeking the reward of sadaqa-tul jaariyaa, is a commitment to authenticity. I aim to help Muslims strengthen their connection to the true teachings of Islam.
In today's world, especially with the rise of social media, artificial intelligence, and the spread of ruwaibidah 1, misinformation can cloud one's natural disposition (fitrah). I am dedicated to offering the most authentic knowledge, rooted in the Noble Qur'an, the Ahaadith, and the understanding of the early righteous predecessors.
By the Grace of Almighty, today, the site serves thousands of users like you worldwide. People visit for various purposes, and I've built tools to help create a personalized experience:
- Study with Confidence: Search the Ahaadith of our beloved Prophet ﷺ and research Islamic topics, knowing the information is based on authentic Sunni traditions.
- Personalize Your Learning: Bookmark important Qur'anic verses and Ahaadith. You can also create your own personal collections of verses, narrations, and articles to easily find what matters most to you.
- Track Your Qur'an Journey: Use the personalized trackers to manage your Qur'an memorization and revision. The revision tool, supported by AI, even offers personalized suggestions on which Surah to revise next, tailored to your progress.
- Read Trusted Content: Access clear, well-researched articles backed by authentic sources, with all citations provided.
In sha' Allāh, I will continue to expand the site's features to further benefit the Muslim community and help non-Muslims discover the truth of Islam. I ask Allāh to accept this effort from me and from those who have contributed to the project.
Objectives
From the beginning, my objectives have been clear. This website exists to:
- Offer an ad-free platform for authentic Islamic resources.
- Invest in modern technology that benefits Muslims worldwide.
- Develop a powerful search engine that easily distinguishes authentic traditions from weak ones.
- Provide clear articles based on pure Sunni traditions.
- Continuously refine the data to remove incorrect information and fix errors.
- Allow content to be printed for sharing in your local community.
- Ensure your user data is secure. I will never share your personal information with anyone.
I understand that everyone may not agree with the decisions I make on the site (the data I use and remove). My goal is not to create division but to unite Muslims around authentic traditions.
As a human being, I am not infallible. If you find any content that you believe is inauthentic, please contact me via email with your evidence. I will promptly review the issue and take corrective action (in shaa Allāh).
