AyahSlides FAQ
Practical answers about Quran text source, slide generation, translations, and how to use the generated PowerPoint files.
What Quran text source does AyahSlides use?
AyahSlides bundles Arabic Uthmani Quran text from the Tanzil Project. The importer validates 114 surahs and 6,236 ayahs against Tanzil metadata before the data is copied into the frontend.
Does AyahSlides include translations?
Yes, as an option. You can show one of three English translations and a transliteration under the Arabic text. The translations and transliteration come from the Tanzil Project, and each slide credits the source. You can also keep the slides in Arabic only.
Can I create slides for khutbahs or Islamic school lessons?
Yes. Select a surah and ayah range, choose a visual style, and download an editable PPTX file. Short passages are usually easier to read in rooms and classrooms.
Does AyahSlides call a Quran API while I use it?
No. The production frontend serves bundled JSON files for the Quran text and translations, and the PPTX and PNG files are generated in the browser.
Can I edit the generated PowerPoint file?
Yes. The output is a standard .pptx file, so you can change font sizes, add notes, add translations, or combine slides with an existing deck.
Can I download a slide as an image?
Yes. The Current PNG button saves the slide shown in the preview as a PNG image. The PowerPoint button downloads every slide in the selected range as an editable .pptx file.
What slide sizes can I make?
Choose 16:9 for projectors and screens, 1:1 or 4:5 for social media posts, or 9:16 for phone stories. The size you choose applies to both the PowerPoint and the PNG download.
Can I make a full-surah deck?
The app can generate a slide for every ayah in the selected range, but very long surahs can create large decks. For presentations, shorter ranges are usually clearer.
