Description : Zekr, A Quranic Study Tool
Zekr is an open source Quranic desktop application
originally written and being developed by Mohsen Saboorian.
It is an under-development project,
but there are always stable releases available for download.
.
It now supports managed/scoped searching of the whole Quran and translations,
with matching and non-matching diacritics plus translation and theme support.
.
Zekr is flexible in adding new plug-ins, themes, language packs,
and Quran's translations. Zekr has English, Persian (Farsi), French, German,
Arabic, Indonesian, Russian, Dutch, Kurdish, Malay, Turkish, and Urdu
built-in language packs.
There is a built-in transliteration, which is treated as a translation.
Quran Translations in different languages are available for Zekr:

.
Please be aware although the Quran text used in Zekr is one of the most
accurate electronic Quran texts, it might still have some typos (If you find
any we will be grateful if you report them).
.
In this release Custom Mixed Layout supports multiple translation at a time.
Bookmark management is also a new feature.
