I just didn't want to #include <quran.h> everywhere

oh, no you do not need to create it if you don't have audio files
Anyway before typing 'make install' in libquran you should modify
libquran.xml to reflect the prefix you set
so if you did : ./configure --prefix=/usr , you shouldn't need to
modify it but if you did: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local or if you
did only: ./configure , you will have to modify libquran.xml to be :
<libquran>
        <datadir>
                <text location="/usr/local/share/libquran/xml"/>
                <audio location="/usr/local/share/libquran/audio"/>
        </datadir>
</libquran>

my working copy have that, I just thought that "Error calling quran_init() -2"
will not make sense to a user, I'm planning to add --debug option to configure
that have that should make qtquran verbose.

This has no place here :-)
