All \tt{option}s are explained in the section \ref{sec:options}. After loading the package, it writes some information about itself to the log file. The information is something like: \begin{quote} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle, escapechar={|},] Package: quran |\qurandate| v|\quranversion| An easy way to typeset the whole or any parts of the holy Quran \end{lstlisting} \end{quote} \section{Typesetting The Holy Quran}\label{sec:qurantypesetting} For typesetting any parts or whole of the holy Quran, several macros are provided in the package. These commands are responsible for typesetting all popular divisions of the holy Quran based on Uthmani script, including Surah, Ayah, Page, Juz, Hizb, Quarter, Ruku, and Manzil as well as any chunks of an a yah. \subsection{Surah/Sovar} \begin{declcs}{quransurah}\oarg{surah range}\\ \cs{quransurah*}\oarg{surah range} \end{declcs} This macro can typeset any surah of Quran. A \meta{range} consists either of a single \meta{number} or two numbers separated by a dash (-), as in \none-\ntwo. In \cs{quransurah} and similar commands, if \meta{range} does not satisfy \none~<~\ntwo{} in addition to its domain, this might fail or make some undesired results. As you know there are 114 surahs, so \meta{range} could be an integer between 1 to 114. \cs{quransurah} terminates typesetting of every ayah using \cs{par} (depending on the package option) while \cs{quransurah*} uses a blank space for each ayah. As a simplified rule of thumb, \cs{quransurah} prints ayahs as multiple paragraphs while \cs{quransurah*} prints them as a single paragraph. All starred macros in the package act similar in this manner; see page~\pageref{starred} for more details. The macro also could accept the anglicized title of the surah's name, e.g. both of \cs{quransurah[19]} and \cs{quransurah[Maryam]} have the same effect. \mgpar{quransurah[19]}\mgpar{quransurah[Maryam]} See table~\ref{tab1} how to use the anglicized title of a surah instead of its order. As some anglicized titles include a dash (-), therefore \meta{range} has to be separated by two dashes (\tt{--}), e.g.\cs{quransurah[An-Nasr--An-Nas]}. \cs{quransurah} without its optional argument outputs the package's default surah, Al-Ikhlas, (as long as the default has not been overwritten, see below). \centerline{\mx{quransurah[94]}{\quransurah[94]} \hfill \mx{quransurah[At-Tin]}{\quransurah[At-Tin]}} \centerline{\mxf{quransurah*[113-114]}{\quransurah*[113-114]}} \centerline{\mx{quransurah[109-110]}{\quransurah[109-110]} \hfill \mx{quransurah[Al-Masadd--Al-Ikhlas]}{\quransurah[Al-Masadd--Al-Ikhlas]}} \centerline{\mx{quransurah*}{\quransurah*} \hfill\mx{quransurah}{\quransurah}} In order to change the default surah, apply \cs{setsurahdefault\{m\}}. As you've noticed the package's default is 112. \mgpar{setsurahdefault} After changing package's default surah to 107 by \cs{setsurahdefault\{107\}}, the output would be like below: \setsurahdefault{107} \centerline{\mxf{quransurah*}{\quransurah*}} \newcounter{ct} \def\mycell#1{% \surahname[\value{#1}]% \addtocounter{ct}{38}% } \begin{table}[!htb] \centering \fontsize{8}{10}\selectfont \begin{tabular}{|*{3}{c|l|}} \hline Order & Anglicized Title & Order & Anglicized Title & Order & Anglicized Title \\ \hline\hline% \forloop{ct}{1}{\value{ct} < 38}{% \ifnum\thect=1\phantom{.}\fi\thect & \mycell{ct} & \thect & \mycell{ct} & \thect & \mycell{ct}\\ \addtocounter{ct}{-114} }% \thect & \mycell{ct} & \thect & \mycell{ct} & \thect & \mycell{ct}\\% \hline \end{tabular} \protect\caption{\scshape Anglicized Title of Surahs' Names}\label{tab1} \end{table} \subsection{Ayah/Ayat} \begin{declcs}{quranayah}\oarg{surah range}\oarg{ayah range}\\ \cs{quranayah*}\oarg{surah range}\oarg{ayah range} \end{declcs} \meta{range} is similar the one explained for \cs{quransurah} and this pattern is similar to all commands defined in the package. Therefore, this command typesets the \textit{n}$^{th}$ ayah of a surah or \textit{m}$^{th}$ to \textit{n}$^{th}$ ayahs of a s urah. \centerline{\mx{quranayah[33][33]}{\quranayah[33][33]} \hfill \mx{quranayah[Al-Ahzab][33]}{\quranayah[Al-Ahzab][33]}} The basmalah will not be printed if you want to typeset the first ayah of any surah per se. Using \cs{basmalah} macro prior to the ayah will solve this issue. See page~\pageref{sec:basmalah} for more information. \marginpar{\cs{basmalah}} \centerline{\mx{quranayah[Ibrahim][1]}{\quranayah[Ibrahim][1]} \hfill \mx{basmalah\textbackslash{}quranayah[14][1]}{\quran\basmalah\quranayah[14][1]}} \centerline{\mx{quranayah*[Ash-Shura][22-26]}{\quranayah*[Ash-Shura][22-26]} \hfill \mx{quranayah*[42][22-26]}{\quranayah*[42][22-26]}} Both \cs{quransurah} and \cs{quranayah} are \emph{case-insensitive} to the anglicized title of surah, i.e. there are, for example, no differences among Al-Fatiha, al-fatiha, or any other possible combinations of lowercase and uppercase letters. \centerline{\mx{quransurah*[Al-Fatiha]}{\quransurah*[Al-Fatiha]} \hfill \mx{quransurah*[aL-fAtIhA]}{\quransurah*[aL-fAtIhA]}} \subsection{Page/Pages} \begin{declcs}{quranpage}\oarg{page range}\\ \cs{quranpage*}\oarg{page range} \end{declcs} Typesets the specified \meta{range} of page(s) of the holy Quran. The numbers in \meta{range} have to be between $1$ to $604$, based on the Medina Mushaf. \centerline{\hboxR{\mx{quranpage*[249]}{\quranpage*[249]} \hfill \mx{quranpage*[250]}{\quranpage*[250]}}} \centerline{\mxf{quranpage*[603-604]}{\quranpage*[603-604]}} \subsection{Juz/Ajza} \begin{declcs}{quranjuz}\oarg{juz range}\\ \cs{quranjuz*}\oarg{juz range} \end{declcs} This macro typesets the specified \meta{range} of juz(zes) of the holy Quran, ranging from $1$ to $30$. \subsection{Hizb/Ahzab} Each juz of the holy Quran is devided into two ahzab (groups), thus there are 60 hizbs (ahzab). Following macro typesets hizb/ahzab of the holy Quran. \begin{declcs}{quranhizb}\oarg{hizb range}\\ \cs{quranhizb*}\oarg{hizb range} \end{declcs} \subsection{Quarter/Quarters} Eash hizb of the holy Quran is devided into four quarters, making eight quarters per juz, called maqra. There are 240 of these quarters (of hizb) in the holy Quran. These maqras are often used as sections for revision when memorizing the holy Quran.\footnote{\url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juz'}} \begin{declcs}{quranquarter}\oarg{quarter range}\\ \cs{quranquarter*}\oarg{quarter range} \end{declcs} \centerline{\mxf{quranquarter*[110]}{\quranquarter*[110]}} \subsection{Ruku/Rukus} ``The term ruk\= u --- roughly translated to ``passage", ``pericope" or ``stanza" --- is also used to denote a group of thematically related verses in the Qur'an. Longer suras (chapters) in the Qur'an are usually divided into several ruk\= us, so that the reciters could identify when to make ruk\= u in Salat without breaking an ongoing topic in the Quranic text."\footnote{\url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruku}} There are $556$ rukus. \begin{declcs}{quranruku}\oarg{ruku range}\\ \cs{quranruku*}\oarg{ruku range} \end{declcs} \centerline{\mxf{quranruku*[363]}{\quranruku*[363]}} \centerline{\mxf{quranruku*[58-59]}{\quranruku*[58-59]}} \subsection{Manzil/Manazil} ``For the convenience of people who wish to read the Qur'an in a week the text may be divided into 7 portions, each portion is known as Manzil. The following division to 7 equal portions is by Hamza Al-Zayyat (d.156/772): \begin{enumerate} \item Al-Fatihah (chapter 1) through An-Nisa' (chapter 4) consisting of 4 surahs. \item Al-Ma'ida (chapter 5) through At-Tawba (chapter 9) consisting of 5 surahs. \item Yunus (chapter 10) through An-Nahl (chapter 16) consisting of 7 surahs. \item Al Isra' (chapter 17) through Al-Furqan (chapter 25) consisting of 9 surahs. \item Ash-Shuara' (chapter 26) through Ya-Seen (chapter 36) consisting of 11 surahs. \item As-Saaffat (chapter 37) through Al-Hujarat (chapter 49) consisting of 13 surahs. \item Qaf (chapter 50) through An-Nass (chapter 114) consisting of 65 surahs.''\footnote{\url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manzil}} \end{enumerate} \begin{declcs}{quranmanzil}\oarg{manzil range}\\ \cs{quranmanzil*}\oarg{manzil range} \end{declcs} The above macro typesets manzil/manazil of the holy Quran. \subsection{Text of Quran} The next macro is the heart of all macros in the package typesetting any range of Quran. As you know, there are $6236$ ayahs in the holy Quran. This macro can typeset a specific ayah or any range of ayahs. \begin{declcs}{qurantext}\oarg{index range}\\ \cs{qurantext*}\oarg{index range} \end{declcs} \centerline{\mxf{qurantext[1023]}{\begingroup\qurantext[1023]\endgroup}} \centerline{\mxf{qurantext*[4111-4117]}{\begingroup\qurantext*[4111-4117]\endgroup}} Using \cs{qurantext} without its optional argument uses [1-7] at its default argument-- surah Al-Hamd. To change the default text use \cs{setqurantextdefault\{m-n\}} \marginpar{\cs{qurantext}} \centerline{\mxf{qurantext*}{\qurantext*}} \noindent In the following example, \cs{setqurantextdefault\{4128-4137\}} has changed the default to index $4128$ to $4137$. \mgpar{setqurantextdefault\{m-n\}} \setqurantextdefault{4128-4137} \centerline{\mxf{qurantext*}{\qurantext*}} \subsection{Whole of The Holy Quran} The following macros with the specified parameters can typeset whole of the holy Quran: \begin{multicols}{2} \begin{itemize} \item \cs{quransurah[1-114]} \item \cs{quranjuz[1-30]} \item \cs{quranpage[1-604]} \item \cs{qurantext[1-6236]} \item \cs{quranhizb[1-60]} \item \cs{quranquarter[1-240]} \item \cs{quranruku[1-556]} \item \cs{quranmanzil[1-7]} \item \cs{quransurah*[1-114]} \item \cs{quranjuz*[1-30]} \item \cs{quranpage*[1-604]} \item \cs{qurantext*[1-6236]} \item \cs{quranhizb*[1-60]} \item \cs{quranquarter*[1-240]} \item \cs{quranruku*[1-556]} \item \cs{quranmanzil*[1-7]} \end{itemize} \end{multicols} \subsection{Chunks of an Ayah}\label{chunk} From ver 1.6 onward, the package is capable of typesetting not only a whole ayah but also any chunks of an ayah if the \xmgpar{wordwise} option has been loaded.\footnote{This new practical feature has been suggested and supported financially by \emph{Atiyah Elsheikh} in Feburary 2020.} In this case, \cs{quranayah} and \cs{qurantext} macros have some other optional parameters to do that. \begin{declcs}{quranayah}\oarg{surah range}\oarg{ayah range}\oarg{chunk range}\\ \cs{quranayah}\oarg{surah range}\oarg{ayah range}\oarg{chunk range}\tt{+} \end{declcs} \begin{declcs}{qurantext}\oarg{index range}\oarg{chunk range}\\ \cs{qurantext}\oarg{index range}\oarg{chunk range}\tt{+} \end{declcs} These commands separate words included in \meta{ayah range}/\meta{index range} by white spaces and then output specified \meta{chunk range}. If \meta{chunk range} includes just one number, the output will be from the \meta{number}\textsuperscript{th} word to the end of \meta{ayah range}. \centerline{\mx{quranayah[2][156][6]}{\quranayah[2][156][6]} \hfill \mx{quranayah[2][286][31-43]}{\quranayah[2][286][31-43]}} The way the package enumerates the words of a specified \meta{range} could be shown in the footnote if these commands followed by \tt{+}. \centerline{\mxf{quranayah[Ar-Rad][23-24][10]+}{\quranayah[Ar-Rad][23-24][10]+}} \pagebreak[4] Fetching just one word from an ayah needs the \meta{chunck range} to have both \meta{number}s as the same. \centerline{\mx{quranayah[18][19][34-34]}{\quranayah[18][19][34-34]} } \section{Miscellaneous} \subsection{Name of Surah} \begin{declcs}{surahname}\oarg{index}\\ \cs{surahname*}\oarg{index} \end{declcs} These commands return the anglicized/arabic title of \textit{index}$^{th}$ surah of the holy Quran, as depicted in table~\ref{tab1} and table~\ref{tab2} \centerline{\mx{surahname[19]}{\surahname[19]} \hfill \mx{surahname*[19]}{\quran\surahname*[19]}} \def\mycell#1#2{% \hboxR{\amiri\phantom{آح}\surahname*[\value{#1}]}% \addtocounter{ct}{#2}% } \begin{table}[!hbt] \centering % \fontsize{12}{14}\selectfont \begin{RTL} \begin{tabular}{|*{4}{@{\hspace{1mm}}c@{\hspace{1mm}}|r|}} \hline Order & \multicolumn{1}{c|@{\hspace{1mm}}}{Title} & Order & \multicolumn{1}{c|@{\hspace{1mm}}}{Title} & Order & \multicolumn{1}{c|@{\hspace{1mm}}}{Title} & Order & \multicolumn{1}{c|}{Title} \\ \hline\hline% \forloop{ct}{1}{\value{ct} < 29}{% \ifnum\thect=1\phantom{..}\fi\thect & \mycell{ct}{29} & \thect & \mycell{ct}{29} & \thect & \mycell{ct}{28} & \thect & \mycell{ct}{28}\\ \addtocounter{ct}{-114} }% \thect & \mycell{ct}{29} & \thect & \mycell{ct}{29} & & & & \\% \hline \end{tabular} \end{RTL} \protect\caption{\scshape Arabic Titles of Surahs}\label{tab2} \end{table} \subsection{Basmalah}\label{sec:basmalah} \begin{declcs}{basmalah}\\ \cs{Basmalah} \end{declcs} It provides Basmalah (\RLE{\quran\Basmalah}) in arabic text. There is a subtle difference between \cs{Basmalah} and \cs{basmalah} -- the latter is sometimes followed by a \cs{par} (depending on the package option). \centerline{\mx{basmalah\textbackslash{}quranayah*[14][1]}{\quran\basmalah\quranayah*[14][1]} \hfill \mx{Basmalah\textbackslash{}space\textbackslash{}quranayah*[14][1}{\quran\Basmalah\ \quranayah*[14][1]}} \subsection{Index Converting} \begin{declcs}{indexconvert}\marg{index}\marg{surah macro}\marg{ayah macro} \end{declcs} It converts an index number between 1 to 6236 to its exact surah's index and ayah's index. The index must be either a number or a \TeX{} counter, and the surah macro and ayah would be defined as a \TeX{} counters if they are undefined. They will be set to the numbers representing the surah and ayah of the given index in text of the holy Quran. \begin{SaveVerbatim}{VerbEnv} \newcount\index \index=5678 \indexconvert{\index}{\surahcount}{\ayahcount} Index \the\index\ belongs to ayah number \the\ayahcount\ of surah number \the\surahcount\ (=\surahname[\the\surahcount]). \end{SaveVerbatim} \centerline{\mybox*{indexconvert}{ \UseVerbatim{VerbEnv} \newcount\index \index=5678 \indexconvert{\index}{\surahcount}{\ayahcount} Index \the\index\ belongs to ayah number \the\ayahcount\ of surah number \the\surahcount\ (=\surahname[\the\surahcount]). }+} \section{Options to The Package}\label{sec:options} All macros of the package, by default, will separate ayahs with \cs{par}. The \xmgpar{nopar} option is available to change this default behaviour. In this case, ayahs will be separated with space instead \cs{par}. Another way for achieving this, is using the starred version of macros. All macros of the package \marginpar{starred macros} have starred versions that omit the \cs{par} in typesetting ayahs of the holy Quran. \label{starred} With \xmgpar{nopar} option, starred macros act as if this option was not loaded. \medskip All surahs of the holy Quran are divided by ayahs which have their own indexes. By default, these numbers are typeset with text of each ayah. The \xmgpar{nonumber} option causes none of these numbers will be printed with ayahs. \begin{declcs}{ToggleAyahNumber} \end{declcs} This macro change the default behaviour of the package in typesetting of the index of ayahs whereever it called. It means that the macro can enable/disable the ayahs' index in output text. \centerline{\mxf{ToggleAyahNumber\textbackslash{}quransurah*[89]} {\ToggleAyahNumber\quransurah*[89]}} \medskip The package, by default, typesets the text of the holy Quran in simple script, but \xmgpar{uthmani} changes the default to Uthmani script. Compare the following texts to figure out the differences between ``default'' and ``uthmani'' scripts. \centerline{\mxf{quransurah*[1] (default)}{\quransurah*[1]}} \makeatletter\let\qt@newcmd\renewcommand \input{qurantext-uthmani.def}% \makeatother \centerline{\mxf{quransurah*[1] (uthmani)}{\quransurah*[1]}} \makeatletter\let\qt@newcmd\renewcommand \input{qurantext-simple.def}% \makeatother \medskip Version 1.6 comes wtih the \xmgpar{wordwise} option which makes the package capable of outputing any chunks of an ayah. See section~\ref{chunk} for more details. \centerline{\mx{quranayah[9][111][1-23]}{\quranayah[9][111][1-23]}} \medskip By version 1.3, the package can typeset the transliteration of the holy Quran. This option will be useful for whom doesn't really know how to read the arabic text. By loading \xmgpar{translt} option all macros defined in section~\ref{sec:qurantypesetting} will have an ``\texttt{lt}" version. In other words, the following macros are added by this option: \begin{multicols}{3} \begin{itemize} \item \cs{quransurahlt} \item \cs{quranayahlt} \item \cs{quranpagelt} \item \cs{quranjuzlt} \item \cs{quranhizblt} \item \cs{quranquarterlt} \item \cs{quranrukult} \item \cs{quranmanzillt} \item \cs{qurantextlt} \end{itemize} \end{multicols} \centerline{\mx{quransurahlt[108]}{\setLTR\quransurahlt[108]} \hfill \mx{quransurah[108]}{\quransurah[108]}} \medskip The package can typeset some translations of the holy Quran in other languages. These options were added because of some requests from users who had required the translation of the holy Quran in their languages. Loading \xmgpar{transde}, \xmgpar{transen}, \xmgpar{transfr}, or \xmgpar{transfa} brings some other macros for typesetting the translation in German, English, French, and Persian, respectively. By loading each of these options, all macros defined in section~\ref{sec:qurantypesetting} will have a ``\texttt{de}"/``\texttt{en}"/``\texttt{fr}"/``\texttt{fa}" version. In other words, these options will add the following macros: \begin{multicols}{2} \texttt{transde} option: \begin{itemize} \item \cs{quransurahde} \item \cs{quranayahde} \item \cs{quranpagede} \item \cs{quranjuzde} \item \cs{quranhizbde} \item \cs{quranquarterde} \item \cs{quranrukude} \item \cs{quranmanzilde} \item \cs{qurantextde} \end{itemize} \texttt{transen} option: \begin{itemize} \item \cs{quransurahen} \item \cs{quranayahen} \item \cs{quranpageen} \item \cs{quranjuzen} \item \cs{quranhizben} \item \cs{quranquarteren} \item \cs{quranrukuen} \item \cs{quranmanzilen} \item \cs{qurantexten} \end{itemize} \texttt{transfr} option: \begin{itemize} \item \cs{quransurahfr} \item \cs{quranayahfr} \item \cs{quranpagefr} \item \cs{quranjuzfr} \item \cs{quranhizbfr} \item \cs{quranquarterfr} \item \cs{quranrukufr} \item \cs{quranmanzilfr} \item \cs{qurantextfr} \end{itemize} \texttt{transfa} option: \begin{itemize} \item \cs{quransurahfa} \item \cs{quranayahfa} \item \cs{quranpagefa} \item \cs{quranjuzfa} \item \cs{quranhizbfa} \item \cs{quranquarterfa} \item \cs{quranrukufa} \item \cs{quranmanzilfa} \item \cs{qurantextfa} \end{itemize} \end{multicols} All translations are from \url{tanzil.net}. For Germen, English, French, and Persian languages the ``Abu Rida Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Rassoul", ``Ahmed Ali", ``Muhammad Hamidullah", and ``Mohammad Mahdi Fooladvand" have been chosen respectively, by suggestion of the package's users. \medskip The \xmgpar{trans} option has been prepared to simplify the usage of mutiple translations simultaneously. This option accepts any permutation of ``\texttt{lt}", ``\texttt{de}", ``\texttt{en}", ``\texttt{fr}", and ``\texttt{fa}", e.g. ``\xoption{trans=\{de, en, lt\}}". \marginpar{\dbend} There is no way to load all of the translations together.

Copyright (c) 2004-2015, SIL International (http://scripts.sil.org/) with Reserved Font Names "Scheherazade" and "SIL". Therefore you can freely download it. All examples in this document use this font. \end{quote} \begin{quote} \emph{Amiri} is a classical Arabic typeface in Naskh style for typesetting books and other running text. Amiri is a revival of the beautiful typeface pioneered in early 20$^{th}$ century by Bulaq Press in Cairo, also known as Amiria Press, after which the font is named. Amiri is a free, open source project that everyone is encouraged to use and modify. \end{quote} \subsection{How to use \xpackage{quran} package?} As you've noticed, for typesetting quran text you need a package that can typeset text in RTL mode in additon to using UTF8 fonts, because \xpackage{quran} draws its text from a unicoded databases. The \xpackage{polyglossia}, \xpackage{fontspec}, and \xpackage{bidi} will do that for you. You can also use \xpackage{xepersian} that relies on \xpackage{fontspec}, too. Another choices are \xpackage{arabxetex} and \xpackage{arabluatex} that the latter just works with \LuaLaTeX{} while former ways work with \XeLaTeX. The \xpackage{arabxetex} and \xpackage{arabluatex} use Amiri font by default. The following demonstrates some examples for all four approaches: \begin{quote} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle, title=``example: with polyglossia{,} fontspec{,} and bidi"] \documentclass{article} \usepackage{quran} %%% for typesetting arabic text \usepackage{polyglossia} \setotherlanguage{arabic} \usepackage{fontspec} \setmainfont{Scheherazade} %%% for typesetting in Rigth-To-Left direction \usepackage{bidi} \begin{document} \setRTL % tell bidi to typeset the text in Rigth-To-Left direction \textarabic{\quransurah} \end{document} \end{lstlisting} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle, title=``example: with xepersian"] \documentclass{article} \usepackage{quran} %%% for typesetting Persian/Arabic text in Rigth-To-Left direction \usepackage{xepersian} \settextfont{Scheherazade} \begin{document} \quransurah \end{document} \end{lstlisting} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle, title=``example: with arabxetex"] \documentclass{article} \usepackage{arabxetex} % for typesetting Arabic text in Rigth-To-Left direction \usepackage{quran} \begin{document} \begin{arab}[utf] \quransurah \end{arab} \end{document} \end{lstlisting} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle, title=``example: with arabluatex"] \documentclass{article} \usepackage{arabluatex} % for typesetting Arabic text in Rigth-To-Left direction \usepackage{quran} \begin{document} \begin{txarab} \quransurah \end{txarab} \end{document} \end{lstlisting} \end{quote} \subsection{How to set a default font for text of quran?} If you want to automatically change the font of quran text in your document, precede the \cs{qurantext} with your willing font like below: \begin{quote} With \xpackage{fontspec}, put the commands below in the preamble: \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle] \newfontfamily\quran{Scheherazade} \makeatletter \bidi@preto\qurantext{\quran} \makeatother \end{lstlisting} With \xpackage{xepersian}, put the following commands in the preamble: \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle] \defpersianfont\quran{Scheherazade} \makeatletter \bidi@preto\qurantext{\quran} \makeatother \end{lstlisting} \end{quote} By setting default font the way mentioned above, if you want to use \cs{qurantext}, you have to enclose it in curly braces. If you don't, it will affect the font of the following texts. \begin{quote} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle] {\qurantext[x-y]} \end{lstlisting} \end{quote} \subsection{How to typeset a portion of the holy Quran in one paragraph with no ayah number without using \xoption{nopar} option?} Just put the code that was describled on page~\pageref{starred} in a group like below: \begin{quote} \begin{lstlisting}[style=BashInputStyle] {\ToggleAyahNumber\quransurah*} \end{lstlisting} \end{quote} \setsurahdefault{112} \mxf{quransurah* «\{\textbackslash{}ToggleAyahNumber\textbackslash{}quransurah*\}» \textbackslash{}quransurah*} {\quransurah* »{\ToggleAyahNumber\quransurah*}« \quransurah*} \subsection{Why do I get the ``\tt{! TeX capacity exceeded}'' error?} \label{sec:texcapacity} Invention of \TeX{} dates back to many years ago. Although we have great hardware nowadays, \TeX{} engine has been designed so that to use a very small amount of computer hardware due to the limitation of the computer at the time of its invention. The \xpackage{quran} makes a plenty of macros which deplete the \TeX's memory and therefore, sometimes lead to compile error. To solve this issue, you can expand \TeX's memory; see the section ``Memory Limitations'' in the \xpackage{pgfplots} manual. However, that does not mean that expanding TeX's memory is the best solution. Instead, I would recommend redesigning your document. For exmaple, if you use \xoption{wordwise}, most of starred version of macros which output a large portion of quran text will cause ``\tt{! TeX capacity exceeded}''. In this case, make a similar output with using some smaller chunks. For instance, you want to typseset 10 first juzzes with \cs{quranjuz*[1-10]} command and you may get \begin{quote} \tt{! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [main memory size=5000000]} \\or \\ \tt{! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [parameter stack size=10000]} \end{quote} errors. It would be better to typeset ecah juz separately, or even each page of this range -- \cs{quranjuz*[1]} \cs{quranjuz*[2]} $\cdots$ \cs{quranjuz*[10]} or \cs{quranpage*[1]} \cs{quranpage*[2]} $\cdots$ \cs{quranpage*[201]}. \makeatletter \bidi@patchcmd{\History}{\raggedright}{}{}{} \makeatother \begin{History} \begin{Version}{2015/06/01 v0.1} \item Initial release in Parsi\LaTeX\ group under the name of \xpackage{qurantext}. \item \cs{qurantext} added. \end{Version} \begin{Version}{2015/06/02 v0.2} \item Redefinition of \cs{do@qt} in a nonrecursive style.
