Various forums/blogs quote many Quranic verses, and in doing so some unintentional mistakes might crop up, or even worse could happen when someone tries to tamper the Quranic texts by forgery. What this web application does (or better will do when it is complete!) is check Quranic quotes in any web page for its correctness by comparing against an authentic version in the backend.

Suggestions/advices are highly solicited!
