 Q U R A N

•  The Multilingual Quran Project - a Quranic search engine with the Shakir, Abdullah Yusuf Ali and Pickthall translations in English, as well as the original Arabic text.  It also has the Pooya/ Ali tafsir, which is excellent for background information and a summary of the exegesis.

•  Al-Mizan website - official website of Allamah Muhammad Hussein Tabataba'i's Tafsir al Mizan, in English.  An excellent resource for in-depth analysis of the verses, with many supporting ahadeeth.  Unfortunately, the exegesis of only some of the chapters is currently available, but the site is updated periodically.

•  Islamicity Phoenetic Quran Search Engine - the world's first phoenetic Quran search engine (according to them, at least).  If you can remember the verse in Arabic and need to find a reference, type the phoenetic translation into this engine using English letters.

•  EMuslim Dictionary of the Holy Quran - an online English dictionary for Quranic words.  Did you know there are less than 2000 different words in the entire Quran?  It's much easier to learn Quranic Arabic than you think.  Take it verse by verse with this dictionary.

•  IslamWay Radio - almost every Quran recitor you can think of, in MP3 or Real Audio format.  Includes a recitation with English translation (here), and two of the most beautiful recitations you'll ever hear, Abdul Baset Abdus Samad and Sa'ad al Ghamidi.
