The project's directory structure has been changed to be similar to how FreeBSD organizes its filesystem. The english, portuguese, and farsi translations are now sourced from https://quran.com. The original Arabic is still sourced from searchtruth.com. Files have been removed, and / or replaced. The SQL-related files have been removed, with the intention to separate them into a new project in the future (quran-sql). The lessons learnt from the development of quran-audio were an inspiration for this change.

About
This repository contains the contents of the holy book, The Quran - in its original Arabic. Translations in English, Farsi, and Portuguese are also included. The contents are available in the JSON, and SQL formats.
Contents
src/json/
- src/json/ar/ contains The Quran in its original Arabic.
- src/json/en/ contains an English translation of The Quran.
- src/json/fa/ contains a Farsi translation of The Quran.
- src/json/pt/ contains a Portuguese translation of The Quran.
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 as an example.
src/sql/
- src/sql/schema.sql defines the schema of the database.
- src/sql/seed.sql can be used to populate a SQL database.
- src/sql/queries/ contains example SQL queries.
bin/
The bin/ directory contains scripts that generate the contents of the src/ directory:
