@mmahalwy proof of concept of rendering words using tashkeel text rather than codes.

fonts

Try selecting first ayah and copy the text, you'll get something like this ﭑﭒﭓﭔꀁبِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

If we can somehow render the words using actual text, it will be huge gain in term of SEO. Try searching بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ on google you might not see any result from quran.com on first page. Now try ﭑﭒﭓﭔ ( our font code ) and first result is from quran.com. Google never index actual text of Quran because the way we're rendering the text. Well this is still POC and only works on chrome :(

oh yeah, @naveed-ahmad completely agree with this. We have an issue about this actually, it's a dream we have had for a while :)

I am ready to merge this! Let me know when :)
