<h3>Warning (especially for Muslims)</h3>

<p>
Today, technology is helping bring Islam into the homes of millions of
people, Muslim and otherwise.  There is a blessing in all this
of course, but there is a real danger that Muslims will fall under the
impression that owning a book or having a database is equivalent to being
a scholar of Islam.  This is a great fallacy.  Therefore, we would like
to warn you that this database is merely a <em>tool</em>, and not a
substitute for learning, much less scholarship in Islam.

<h3>Notes</h3>

<ul>
<li>This form depends on hidden inputs.  If you see any fields after the
"Reset" button below, then your browser does not support
hidden inputs.
<li>This database supports searching for <em>complete</em> words only.  A query
for the word "eat" will only return data containing that word, and
<em>not</em> data containing "eaten", "eating", etc.

<li>Queries can only contain characters from the following set: alphanumeric
characters, dash "-", left parenthesis "(", and right parenthesis ")".

<li>Boolean operations are supported: "and", "or", and "andnot".

<li>Try this example: <strong>(kingdom and see) andnot dominion</strong>
</ul>
