About:
Quran is a command-line interface tool written in Go that fetches and displays specific chapters (Surahs) and verses (Ayahs) from the Qur'an. It provides a distraction-free, keyboard-driven environment for reading and referencing scripture directly within the terminal. This tool is ideal for users who want quick, scriptable access to the Qur'anic text without leaving their command-line workflow.
Key Features:
  • Fetches specific Surahs and Ayahs by number
  • Displays text directly in the terminal
  • Written in Go for performance and portability
  • Lightweight and scriptable
Use Cases:
  • Quickly referencing specific verses during research or study
  • Integrating scripture display into terminal-based workflows or scripts
  • Reading the Qur'an in a minimalist, distraction-free environment
Alternatives:
  • quran-cli – Alternative CLI tool with similar functionality, may differ in data source or display format
  • tanzil – Web-based and desktop tools for searching and viewing the Qur'an, less suited for terminal use
