Qur'an in English

The root meaning of the word Qur’an which is the proper name of the book that was revealed from Allah to His messenger Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him) is “accumulation and distribution”. From this point forth, the deed of “piling up the letters to form words, then words to form sentences and distribution of them” (reciting) was represented with this word. Accordingly, the word Qur’an means “that which is recited”. We, however, prefer the meaning of “that which is learned and taught”.

Division

Division means “a group of Ayat which descended at once”. While a division may consist of a single Ayah, it may contain tens, even hundreds of Ayat. The Qur’an was not revealed outright entirety, instead it was revealed division by division within a timeframe of almost 23 years in accordance with the events, changes and problems in the society. All Ayat that belong to a topic are not together.
