`get_ayah`

Pack: quran · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/get_ayah for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Get a single ayah (verse) of the Quran by reference — either surah:ayah (e.g. “2:255” for Ayat al-Kursi) or a global ayah number (1-6236). Returns the verse text in the chosen edition (translation like en.asad / en.sahih, or Arabic via quran-uthmani).

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`reference`	string	yes	Verse reference: “surah:ayah” like “2:255”, or a global ayah number like “262”.
`edition`	string	no	Edition identifier. Default ‘en.asad’. Use ‘quran-uthmani’ for Arabic.
