Salam 3alaykoum, Thank you very much Ahmad Twaijry for your interest in helping with the quran data. I'm happy to see that we're one step further in this issue. I hope we can finally get trusted data through Shik Al-Monjid and his contacts.
It's sad to hear nothing anymore from Mohammed Yousif. The only way to contact him is by his email. Can someone else contact him trough other ways as Nadim described. The development of the Quran application has to go further too. I hope I can have more time to work on it next weeks.
