Important — read before downloading: Amiri Quran is an Arabic and Quranic font. Its character set does not include Urdu-specific letters, so it will not shape Urdu text correctly. If you need Urdu text, use an Urdu font such as Jameel Noori Nastaleeq or Noto Nastaliq Urdu instead. Amiri Quran is the right choice for Arabic and Quranic text.

What Is Amiri Quran?

Amiri Quran is a Naskh-style Arabic typeface made for Quranic and classical Arabic text. Its letterforms follow the traditional mushaf style: balanced proportions, clear diacritics and a calm rhythm that suits long passages of Arabic. It is the font to reach for when the text is Arabic — Quranic verses, Islamic books, Arabic calligraphy layouts and Arabic-language documents.

One honest limit: Amiri Quran does not cover Urdu-specific letters, so it is not an Urdu font and should not be used for Urdu typing. For Arabic-script projects in general, also see Muhammadi Quranic and the Arabic Fonts category on this site.

Features of Amiri Quran

• Classical Quranic Naskh — the traditional mushaf style, made for Arabic text.
• Clear diacritics — vowel marks and Quranic signs stay readable at text sizes.
• Open Font License — free under the SIL OFL 1.1 terms.
• 1,446 glyphs — verified from the font file itself.
• Standard TTF — installs on Windows, Mac and Linux and serves on websites.

How to Install on PC (Windows & Mac)

• Download the TTF using the button at the top of this page.
• Windows: Right-click the TTF file and choose Install. Full steps: PC install guide.
• macOS: Double-click the TTF file and click Install Font in Font Book. Full steps: Mac install guide.
• Linux: Copy the TTF file to ~/.fonts (or ~/.local/share/fonts) and run fc-cache -f -v.
• Restart the app (Word, Photoshop or your editor) so Amiri Quran appears in the font list, then select it for your text.

How to Use on Mobile (Android & iPhone)

Most font users today work on their phones, so here is the mobile path for Amiri Quran. The TTF file from the button above is the same file desktop apps use — mobile apps that support custom fonts can import it directly.

Android: Download the TTF on your phone, then open it inside PixelLab, Canva, or a font-installer app and select Amiri Quran for your design. PixelLab and Canva both let you add a custom TTF from your files; a font-installer app can also register it for apps that read installed fonts. Note that this works inside apps — modern Android does not change the system-wide font from a single TTF.

iPhone / iPad: Import the TTF with a font-installer app, then use Amiri Quran inside apps that support custom fonts (design and document apps). Test one line before starting a full project, because each app handles custom fonts slightly differently.

How to Use on a Website

Upload the TTF file to your own server and serve it with @font-face. Do not hotlink the download button URL — it is a file page, not a raw font file.

@font-face { font-family: ‘Amiri Quran’; src: url(‘AmiriQuran.ttf’) format(‘truetype’); }

Then set font-family: ‘Amiri Quran’, serif; on your content with dir=”rtl” and lang=”ur” for Urdu text (or lang=”ar” for Arabic text). Test a real paragraph in two browsers before publishing, and keep a fallback serif font in the stack.

Best Uses for Amiri Quran

• Quranic verses and Islamic layouts — its core purpose.
• Arabic books and documents — classical Arabic prose and poetry.
• Islamic posters and social designs — Arabic quotes and announcements.
• Arabic websites — body text for Arabic-language pages.
• Educational material — Arabic learning content and worksheets.

Amiri Quran vs Jameel Noori Nastaleeq

Jameel Noori Nastaleeq is an Urdu Nastaliq face — sloping, compact, and built for Urdu. Amiri Quran is a different script tradition: an upright Arabic Naskh face built for Quranic text. They are not substitutes for each other. Choose Jameel Noori for Urdu; choose Amiri Quran for Arabic and Quranic text.
