The purpose of this study is to test retrieval performance of Quranic text from various scripts of the same source.

Keyword(s) were derived by researcher from FAQs as queries to represent each FAQs. Matching process was conducted by posting queries into Indri Retrieval. Result from matching process produced results of list of Ayat and these Ayat undergo relevance judgement process that involved three human judges to determine the relevancy of FAQ topic and Ayat, while verifying the accuracy of retrieval. Data analysis that consisted of three measures; precision, recall and overlap discovered competency of Indri for handling multi-script Quranic texts retrieval.
