Quranref offers simple tools for word and passage-based access to M. H.
|
|
Shakir's translation of the Holy Qur'an. With Quranref, you can perform
|
|
most of the more basic, low-level functions commercial browsing packages
|
|
offer (and perhaps a few not found in some of the commercial Qur'an study
|
|
packages). You can, for example,
|
|
|
|
- retrieve any passage by section:verse number
|
|
- move forward or backward relative to the retrieved passage
|
|
- search the entire Qur'an for words and/or word-patterns
|
|
- search for word co-occurrences (or the absence thereof)
|
|
- save passages and/or passage-lists for use with an editor
|
|
|
|
Although this program is hardly the product of any major research effort,
|
|
it should prove sophisticated enough for casual use. Its main fault right
|
|
now is that it relies on a scanned text which is positively rife with
|
|
errors.
