Beit Al Qur'an (Arabic: بيت القرآن) means House of Qur'an in Arabic. It is an Islamic museum at Hoora, Manama, in Bahrain.
The House of the Qur'an was built to accommodate a comprehensive and valuable collection of the Holy Qur'an and rare manuscripts, a concept which is unique. All visitors are welcome, and the complex comprises a mosque, a library, an auditorium, a school and museum consisting of ten exhibition halls.

This great institution and its museum house an internationally celebrated collection of historic Quranic manuscripts from various parts of the Islamic world, from China in the East to Spain in the West, representing a progression of calligraphic traditions from the first century of the Islamic era to the present day.

Apart from housing the museum, Beit Al Qur'an also has a lecture hall, a mosque, a library and a school for Islamic studies.
