What is the ruling on publishing the "Ayat" program, which is affiliated with King Saud University, and reading the Quran from it, knowing that it is an electronic mushaf available in multiple languages, tafsirs, and recitations, and accessible on various devices? Is it trustworthy? And what is incumbent upon one who has read from it and guided others to it? And what is the ruling on downloading other religious programs, such as the mushaf and adhkar, that are available online for phones and computers? And how can one verify their authenticity?

To ascertain the reliability of the program, it suffices to know the entity responsible for it, which is King Saud University. This program is among the best for serving the Holy Quran due to its excellence and the immense effort invested in it. The best ways to verify the reliability of programs and the accuracy of their content are to know the producing entity and to pay attention to what scholars commend, while being careful to verify without exaggeration or obsessive doubt.
