Exact Quran font with Thajweed - ios

Mumthezir VP picture Mumthezir VP · Jun 30, 2015 · Viewed 7.7k times · Source

I have an ios Quran app project, i have tested several Arabic fonts for my Quran app text contents, but it has some difference (in Tajweed marks) other than the original Quran text with Tajweed marks. (Please check the images). I want to know which font is the correct one for Quranic text with complete Tajweed marks.

Edit: I have tried so many fonts like; al-quranalkareem.ttf,UthmanicHafs.ttf,etc. (I don't think it'll be useful if I am listing all here). I want the Quran font with complete and exact Tajweed marks.

It show like this in my app

It should be like this (As it is the correct one) It should be like this (As it is the correct one)

Note for those who don't know Arabic: It is not two different font styles. Its Tajweed rule shows different.

Your problem is not only about font. You are using a text that contains not all Tajweed symbols. You can download a full Uthmani script for Quran from here: Tanzil.

For fonts, I suggest using me_quran,Scheherazade, KacstQurn, or KFGQPC Uthman Taha Naskh. See a preview of each one here.

Scheherazade font is working well for me:

Uthmani Script

See the same font for a text that is in standard script with no Tajweed symbols: Standard
