Abstract

There is a huge wealth of multimedia web resources related to the sciences of the Holy Quran, including 'Tafseer' of the Holy Quran, teaching the provisions of recitation, the stories of the Holy Quran, and many other categories of resources. There is no doubt that these resources would help in understanding the verses of the Holy Quran, clarifying its meaning, and specifying the right way of applying provisions of its recitation, especially for children where the audio visual effect of the multimedia resources would have a great impact on them. Ontology is the explicit formal specification of the terms in a domain and the relations between them. It has been used extensively for knowledge sharing, application integration, and the most for providing the capability of machines to understand and exchange web content. This paper addresses the possibility of using Ontology for linking the verses of the Holy Quran with the multimedia resources found on the web. The proposed system will provide the capability of dynamically searching the web for resources related to the verses of the Holy Quran based on common ontological terms.
