Note: Scribid has withdrawn Reliance of the Traveller, breaking links in many of my posts. You can search it at Muhaddith.com.One academic site hosts a huge text file which may or may not be complete and accurate. It takes a long time to load, and you need to use the Windows Search [Ctrl F] to find anything.
From Sha Plus Software:
Arabic_Quran.pdf (3.28 MB): Complete arabic Quran in pdf format.
Their Quran viewer link is to this site: http://www.2muslims.com/directory/Detailed/223253.shtml
Arabic & Yusuf Ali’s translation are included, others available. Disclaimer says the audio is disfunctional.
My guess is that it is a large download.
Meaning of 80% of words in the Quran (recommended) : Compilation of meanings of mostly used words in the Quran. Available for download as PDF files.
Quran Dictionary : Word by word meaning of the Quran from the beginning to the the end. For most of the words meaning are displayed only for the first occurance of that word in the Quran.
http://www.uga.edu/islam/quran.html
This site includes lists of links to on line resources and Muhaddith’s library which has an extensive collection of Arabic texts. They will sell you a CD for about $30. Their English translations are somewhat limited, but probably worth it if you are deep into the subject. Links include how to obtain a free hard copy of the Qur’an in English.
Muttaqun On Line offers an Arabic/English/Audio combination, the download is large!!
The Noble Qur’an in PDF format – English and Arabic. Click on each verse to hear it recited in Arabic. 197 MB download.
Their on line display has translations by Yusuf Ali, Pickthal, Shakir & Khan plus several other languages; the whole lot can be viewed in parallel. It includes a search engine.

The Noble Qur’an chm version should be close to 1mb. The 978p pdf must be at least twice that size, and more if it includes the commentary included on the web site. Hilali & Khan reportedly used Yusuf Ali’s translation and wove in three tafsirs [in brackets]. A web contact fluent in both Arabic & English informs me that this translation is 95% accurate. The inaccuracies involve fighting & marriage. Basically, where “fight” is printed, the true word is “kill”; where marry is printed, the true word is an infamous four letter obscenity.

Note: the Javascript search tends to hang. I searched for the following ahadith, which Ibn Iblis lists here as 4.52.163(a):
That ahadith is not to be found in the collection, so I must conclude that it is incomplete.
There is much more at Islamia and the other sites mentioned in this post.
The following links are supplied for readers whose interest extends beyond Islam.
This site appears to specialize in Chineese, but it has several translations including Arabic, Chineese, English & Finnish. It is not easy to determine from the list which files are compatible with which software.
Another translation site offers free downloads of Bibles and software, with several translations available, including Arabic. The page is not in English, it was automatically translated when I opened it. I copied some links:

Ocean is a Baha’i resource, about 25MB, libray with parallel search capability and enough books to make you go blind. It includes the Bible, Apocrypha, Baha’i texts, three Qur’an translations, Sahih Bukhari, Jewish scriptures, Sikh, Tao & Buddhist writings.It is available on CD.
Discovered through a link in an article by Dr. Andrew Bostom at American Thinker. Islamibayanaat has a Tafsir, rich in history and detail in the parts I examined, 960 pages, 8 * 30MB packages or numerous smaller sections to download. My guess is that the book is probably the work of Dr. Taqi Usmani, a retired Jurist and Shariah (financeial) expert. The following section links to an index which will facilitate selecting the files you wish to download for examining the tafsir of particular Surahs.

This is a combined effort with www.BanglaKitab.com. To Download the files Right Click and select “Save Target As” and use Acrobat Reader(Free) to open.
The left sidebar has a link to a tafsir of hadith, which appears to be incomplete, a work in progress. These books are scanned images, not text, quoting them will require typing the quotes or use of OCR software and probably extensive editing.
Their home page includes other potentially interesting links, including this fairly extensive library.

DEAR BROTHER, i was wondering where i could get a free hard copy
of Al QURAN with ENGLISH TRANSLATION.
January 1, 2009 at 11:21 pm |
The Council on American Islamic Relations has an “Explore the Quran ” page at http://www.cair-net.org/explorethequran/ .
That page includes a link through which Kaffirun can make your request for a free Quran: http://www.cair.com/explorethequran/request.asp . That page informs us that they are requesting $7.65 by credit card to help defray costs. The volume they distribute is a hard cover edition of Mohammad Assad’s translation which retails for $55.00. The offer is only valid for addresses in the U.S.A.
Free Quran says that they distribute 6000 per month. Their order page is here: http://www.freequran.com/html/order.htm .
Converts to Islam has a page http://www.convertstoislam.org/Free-Quran.htm containing contact information for the Embassy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia which may be offering free Qurans. I Presume that would by the Hilali & khan translation
There are many web sites from which you can download the Quran in various languages and formats. Several of them are linked in the Resources post.

Iam an African need hard copy of the Holy Quran free.this will help to propagate Islam in my community.
November 23, 2009 at 6:48 pm |
I can not guarantee that the links are still good. I believe that one of them is only available to U.S. residents. Tru them and see what happens, it can’t hurt.
It is possible that the Embassy of the K.S.A. may be able to meet your need, use the contact info. on their web site or contact the King Fahd complex directly.

Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers?
I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on.
Any recommendations?

No. I use WordPress.com, plugins are for WordPress.org, where you have your own server.

When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is
added I get several e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
Bless you!

After I originally commented I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time
a comment is added I receive four emails with the exact same
comment. Perhaps there is a means you are able to remove me from that service?
Cheers!
