          We are considering it but it is much more expensive and lengthy process. If the android app goes well we will likely go ahead with an iOS app.

            Just found out today someone else created an app for Project Root List a while ago, here
            https//play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=us.alathar.qamus

            It's also free.

              salaam/peace all,

              Can someone check this for me please.

              A user of PRL 2.0 told me it is black writing on blue background. The older version was white writing on blue background. Can you check? Thanks.

                Guys I have made a site (with credit to) Project root list.

                It is a word for word Quran which contains
                a complete concordance
                (with Arabic, transliteration and the freeminds The message translation respectively)

                A short direct concordance from Lelah Bakhtiar and a
                dictionary meaning from Hans Wehr (Modern Arabic)

                I am waiting for permission from admin before posting the link.

                Stay tuned.........

                      It depends on what you mean by successful.

                      It is used by a lot of people it seems (particularly in Quran based islam forums/groups), and those who do know of it and use it think of it highly.

                        peace all,

                        Update

                        We are looking for volunteers to help make Project Root List even better. Please personal message me if interested. All you need is time and be able to identify Arabic letters. If you already use Project Root List you should find this easy.

                        Goal to add a link to an entry in Verbal Idioms of Quran (by Mustansir Mir) for each root entry in Project Root Lst. This will allow users to read up on any verbal idioms associated with the root.

                        For those who do not know, idioms are a group of words that together have a meaning other than those of the individual words (e.g. "over the moon", "see the light", "add fuel to the fire", "fall in love" ). Languages such as English, Arabic and probably all others have idioms, and many are used in Quran. This will allow students to study it in more detail.

                        Currently Project Root List provides for every root word in Quran

                        Classical Arabic meanings
                        list of every word occurrence in Quran, broken down with grammar information for each
                        Link to Lane's Lexicon root entry
                        A link to corpus.quran.com to allow further examination of occurrences and grammar information

                        All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

                          peace all,

                          Important update

                          Each root in Project Root List has now been linked to more sources, making it even more comprehensive.

                          Each root entry
                          Links to corpus.quran.com
                          Allowing word-by-word analysis of each Quran occurrence and its grammar information

                          Concordance list of Quran occurrences for each derived word from the root, separated by form

                          Summarised list of classical arabic dictionary meanings.

                          Link to Lane's Lexicon entry.

                          Link to the relevant entry in www.ejtaal.net giving access to
                          Lisan al Arab
                          Arabic-English dictionary of Quranic usage

                            Salam,

                            I am a user of PRL and i think it is very good, my only issue being the search-ability of the text file, which i find sometimes is inconsistent in naming letters and not easily searchable. I have a few other suggestions i would like to discuss. If there is any way i can help then I will God willing.

                                speaking from experience with the text file, which i use because most of the time im offline, it is quite hard to search, because of the inconsistencies in Naming/transliterating the Arabic letters. i have partially remedied this in the text file i use by renaming the radicals using a simple search and replace, to an easier transliteration, which i hope does not breach any kind copyright, as its only for my own personal use. Also that some entries are written as for example t-a/w-r. Which is very hard to search for, it would be better to be written as t-a-r / t-w-r for the sake of search ability. In the text file i use i have used the following to transliterate, mainly because I easily get confused with letters like Dhal, Thal, Za, Zay. and for the sake of searchability

                                  Also, a changelog / version number in the files and on the website would be good so that we can keep updated.

                                    I agree with you on the standardisation of the letters. Different compilers led to this issue. This is somewhat remedied by the apps which you can use offline.

                                    There is a % complete on the homepage.

                                      @wakas i am aware you have a percentage of completeness on the website, however, for the sake of those (like me) who use it offline in pdf or text format i think a version would be helpfull so we can keep updated

                                          Salaam Wakas,
                                          I just wanted to say thank you for this amazing project. I use the PRL site extensively while reading the Quran and no doubt it clarifies a lot of things and gives me a better insight into the verses. I can purchase/rent the book 'A Concordance of the Qur'an' and help you guys out if you need another hand.
                                          I also emailed the admin on PRL website but have not gotten a response yet.
