The primary religious sources for Islam include the Qur'an and [[Hadith]] collections. WikiIslam uses the University of Southern California Muslim Students Association's [[Compendium of Muslim Texts]]. This includes the respected and widely accepted Qur'an translations of Yusuf Ali, Marmaduke Pickthal and M. H. Shakir. Hadith translations available from the Compendium of Muslim Texts are the translation of Sahih Al-Bukhari by Muhsin Khan, the translation of Sahih Muslim by Abd-al-Hamid Siddiqui, the translation of Sunan Abu Dawud by Ahmad Hasan, and the translation of Malik's Muwatta by A'isha Abd-al-Rahman al-Tarjumana and Ya'qub Johnson.
The primary religious sources for Islam include the Qur'an and [[Hadith]] collections. Until 2017, WikiIslam used the University of Southern California Muslim Students Association's [[Compendium of Muslim Texts]] (USC-MSA). This included the respected and widely accepted Qur'an translations of Yusuf Ali, Marmaduke Pickthal and M. H. Shakir. Hadith translations available from the Compendium of Muslim Texts were the translation of Sahih Al-Bukhari by Muhsin Khan, the translation of Sahih Muslim by Abd-al-Hamid Siddiqui, the translation of Sunan Abu Dawud by Ahmad Hasan, and the translation of Malik's Muwatta by A'isha Abd-al-Rahman al-Tarjumana and Ya'qub Johnson. This compendium ceased to function in late 2016, and so is no longer used by Wikiislam.
 
From 2017 to the time of writing, Quranx.com is used for both Qur'an and hadith citations by means of templates as described on the [https://wikiislam.net/wiki/WikiIslam:Citing_Sources#Islamic_Text citing sources page]. Quranx.com contains all of the sources and translations from the compendium, including hadiths that were omitted in the USC-MSA collections, as well as additional hadith collections.


Other useful resources concerning primary religious sources are the [http://www.islamawakened.com/Quran/ Master Ayat (Verse) Index] from IslamAwakened.com which provides 34 compared English translations, and the [http://iknowledge.islamicnature.com/quran/surah/1/lang/englishliteral/ iKnowledge Qur'an] from IslamicNature.com which provides the English literal translation. The hadith collection at [http://www.searchtruth.com/hadith_books.php SearchTruth.com] is also useful due to including a few narrations that have oddly been misplaced/removed from the Compendium.
