The providing isn't on the web:

This package provides a collection of translations which are
publicly available on the web.

Make that:
attempting to provide the best _expression_ of its meaning.

Not gzipped, according to
http://packages.debian.org/sid/zekr-quran-translations-en/all/filelist
Then in the control file:
> +Description: Zekr Quran English translations
The templates file has "Qur'an" and the control file has "Quran".
I'd favour standardising on "Qur'an" wherever it isn't part of the
packagename, so that repository searches catch either. Of course,
that still leaves "Koran", "Qur'ān", "Ḳur'ân"...

Missing words, but rephrase:
This package provides translations for use with the free Qur'anic study
tool Zekr.
