JQuranTree is a set of Java APIs for accessing and analyzing the Holy Quran, in its authentic Arabic form. The Java library is released as an open source project, in order to encourage computational analysis of the Quran. We invite others to contribute to this project, with the long term aim of providing a publicly available set of computational tools for linguistic analysis of the Quran in Arabic. JQuranTree is organized into three parts: The Quranic text itself, a set of access APIs, and a set of analysis APIs. The distinction between accessing and analyzing the Quran is that access is concerned with representing the Arabic text (e.g. chapters, verses, letters and diacritics), whereas the analysis API is built on top of this.

The Uthmani distribution of the Tanzil project is used (http://tanzil.info) and is left unmodified. This is an accurate representation of the Madina Mushaf and is stored as a Unicode XML document.
