When to remove Arabic diacritics

  • A researcher copying vowelled text from a classical book or a Quran website so it can be searched and matched in a database or document.
  • A web developer cleaning product names or article titles so site search finds them whether or not users type harakat.
  • A designer whose chosen font renders tashkeel badly and who needs a clean version of the headline.
  • A teacher preparing a reading exercise where students must read the same passage without vowel marks.

How this tool works

The tool removes standard Arabic diacritics and Quranic annotation marks only; it does not translate or rewrite your words.

Example

Paste مُشَكَّل text to produce a plain-text version without harakat.

Remove Arabic Diacritics: frequently asked questions

Which marks does the tool remove?

It removes all harakat: fatha, damma, kasra, sukun, shadda, the three forms of tanween and the superscript (dagger) alef. It also removes Quranic annotation signs such as the small pause (waqf) marks and the end-of-verse sign.

Does it remove tatweel or change any letters?

No. Tatweel (ـ), letters with hamza such as أ and ئ, alef wasla (ٱ) and taa marbuta all stay as they are. To remove tatweel use the Remove Tatweel tool, and to unify letter forms use the Arabic Text Normalizer.

Can removing tashkeel make a word ambiguous?

Yes. The letters do not change, but words that differ only in their vowels, such as عَلِمَ and عِلْم, look identical afterwards. Keep the original vowelled copy wherever exact pronunciation matters.

How much text can I clean at once?
