There are a number of tools available to help with citation placement and formatting, some of which are internal tools and scripts, while others are available from external sites. For an example of the former, [[WikiIslam:RefToolbar|RefToolbar]] is a [[JavaScript]] toolbar displayed above the edit box that provides the ability to automatically fill out various [[WikiIslam:Citation templates|citation templates]] and insert them in the text already formatted inside <code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> ... <code><nowiki></ref></nowiki></code> tags. For an example of the latter, the [https://alyw234237.github.io/wiki-doi-gbooks-citation-maker/ Wikipedia DOI and Google Books Citation Maker] converts a digital object identifier (DOI) or Google Books address (URL) into a filled-out {{tl|cite journal}} or {{tl|cite book}} template ready to be pasted into an article. See [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Citation_tools Help:Citation tools]] on Wikipedia for many others. | There are a number of tools available to help with citation placement and formatting, some of which are internal tools and scripts, while others are available from external sites.

For example, to like to surat-al-baqarah (surah number 2), ayah 36 the template format would be <code><nowiki>{{Quran|2|36}}</nowiki></code>.

For example for surat-al-baqarah verse 20-23 the format would be <nowiki>{{Quran|2|20|23}}</nowiki | These quote boxes can be used for any quoted source.
