Welcome to Text Mining the Qur'an

I am Abdul-Baquee, a PhD student at Leeds University working on Text Mining the Qur'an.

This site is still under construction!

When it is up and running it should enable you to text mine the Qur'an! We assume that the Qur'an holds lots of interesting information, facts, correlations, patterns, associations between facts and concepts that are difficult to discover by manual processing.

Hence, we try to employ computationl techniques from the fields of text mining, machine learning, natural language processing, computational linguistics and stylometrics to reveal some of the hidden trends and make it easy to link the scattered yet related concepts in the Qur'an.

This site is backed by academic research from computationl fields and respects the guidelines set by early Qur'anic scholars and their books of Tafsir like Ibn Jarir at-Tabari, Al-Baghawi and Ibn Kathir.

While this site is been populated, you may want to see some basic tutoral I have been writing on searching the Qur'an using perl and CGI. Or perhaps visit my wiki or a friendly site corpus.quran.com
