### JSON schema

Each JSON file represents a surah (also known as a chapter). The format of the JSON
files can be described as an array where the first element is an object that contains
information about a surah, and the rest of the array is made up of two-element arrays.
The first element is the ayah number (also known as a verse number), and the second
element is the contents of the ayah. See Surah [Al-Fatihah](src/json/en/1.json) as
an example.
